Connecticut Attorney General William Tong filed a brief on April 29, 2026, urging the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority (PURA) to reject Eversource’s request for $340 million in interest payments on nearly $1 billion in unvetted storm costs from 2018 to 2023. This press release does not describe a privacy-related enforcement action, as no data privacy violations are alleged, and no final enforcement action has been taken against Eversource. The matter involves utility cost recovery and regulatory advocacy, not privacy compliance.
This matter does not involve privacy violations, so no privacy-related contract clauses require review. In-house legal teams in the energy and utility sectors may wish to review cost recovery, regulatory filing, and delay-related clauses in agreements with regulators or contractors, but this is outside the scope of privacy enforcement contract review.
