Supreme Court of Vermont June 8, 1982, 183-81 and 371-81 (Petition of Central Vt. Public Service Corp.)

Hill, J.

The Central Vermont Public Service Corporation appeals from two decisions of the Public Service Board concerning Central Vermont’s petition for a rate increase. This Court consolidated those appeals, and they were briefed and argued together. For the reasons detailed in the body of this opinion, we reverse the decision and remand to the Board for further proceedings.
