We're here. We're ready. We have proposals on the table that haven't been responded to.

This rate proposal is intended to enable the company to maintain the financial strength to continue constructing the projects required to meet customer needs. O&R has maintained its A-plus credit rating, though its cash flow measures are weak for that rating and are dependent on constructive regulatory policies.

This radical proposal is a 180-degree flip-flop from what the administration has been arguing in court. Instead of protecting public health, now EPA wants to protect the polluters. The proposal would completely sabotage clean-air law enforcement, and it would be open season for power plants to pollute even more than they do now.

This proposal would punish people who are innocent of any wrongdoing.

This proposal would limit our ability to establish a competitive compensation package and that could place Sun at a competitive disadvantage in attracting and retaining top talent.

This proposal will have little impact on the deficit, ... If Congress is serious, we should put together a deficit reduction package that freezes COLAs government-wide, including Congress.

This proposal shows that the Council will produce research of the highest quality. This research has the potential to bring significant improvements to audience measurement. Results could offer new models for recruitment as well as improved sample representation.

This proposal presents a unique opportunity for both companies. By coming together to leverage the strengths of both companies, we will be able to offer services to different customers on the network that fit with their own individual needs and wants.

This proposal must simply be rejected. There are moments in the history of nations and parliaments in which nothing less than democracy is at stake.

This proposal is unfair because the entire requirement is placed on the taxpayers of Jackson County.
