California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) oversees privately owned utility companies, including “electric, natural gas, telecommunications, water, railroad, rail transit and passenger transportation companies.” (RELATED: California Knew This Was Coming. It Did Nothing.) 

Large utility companies are required to submit plans to “encourage, recruit, and utilize” businesses owned by non-whites, women, disabled veterans, and individuals who identify as LGBT.
