Just four days before this year’s April 15th filing deadline, the number of corporate annual report filings at the State Department through Sunday had increased by 413 percent in comparison to the same date last year, which Secretary of State Kenneth McClintock attributed to the almost mandatory electronic filing requirement.
The State Department is getting technical assistance from the U.S. Department of Energy to establish a Public Utility Commission in Puerto Rico that would merge the Public Service Commission and the Telecommunications Regulatory Board. The new entity would also regulate the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority and the Puerto Rico Aqueduct and Sewer Authority, Secretary of State Kenneth McClintock told News is my Business.
