How to Search for Maryland Public Service Commission Information

The Public Service Commission (PSC) is the “location of record” for documents relating to utility companies and activities in the State of Maryland. The records pertain to investor-owned utility companies (rates, tariffs, distribution wires and pipes, and construction projects), utility suppliers, private water companies, taxi and for-hire transportation services, energy assistance and telecommunication.

Start at the PSC web site Home Page. In the upper center is an option for "Online Services". Clicking this will lead you to find an option for "Case/Maillog Search". 

PSC Cases/Dockets apply to docketed cases (usually four numbers ex. 9615), Rulemaking (ex. RM26), Public Conferences (ex. PC25), and Mail Logs (these are individual submissions filed by parties in a case ex. ML 225434 is an individual filing to Case #9615).

Depending on the exact data you have, enter the information and choose one of the buttons. This will return the “Case Jacket” for Case you searched for and all of the documents that were submitted for this Case. The numbers on the left represent the date order these documents were received by the PSC.

If the number is highlighted with an underline you can click on that document to read or download. If the number is not highlighted it is not available to view. “ML” stands for mail log; every document has a unique number ML. 

 

To find documents filed from one entity or company, from the "Case Search" page, look to the top and click "Official Filings".

When the window opens, look for a box that says "Company Name". Type in the name of the company, or other group you are looking for, example type Office of People’s Counsel, then click "Submit".

This search will provide the recent filing by the entity named. Just look down the list to find the filing of interest.
