The Kansas Corporation Commission (KCC) regulates five cornerstone industries in the Kansas economy. The commission has the responsibility of ensuring that natural gas, electricity, telephone, and transportation vendors provide safe, adequate, and reliable services at reasonable rates. The commission also has the mandate of assuring that oil and gas producers protect correlative rights and environmental resources. The authority of the KCC is derived from KSA 74-601 to 74-631. In the absence of competition, the KCC regulates public utilities, common carriers, motor carriers, and oil and gas producers. It does not regulate most electric cooperatives, water cooperatives, municipalities, wireless telephones, long-distance phone services, cable companies, or the Internet. The Kansas Corporation Commission has provided 125 years of regulatory service to the citizens of Kansas. The Kansas Commission was one of the first state regulatory bodies in the nation, established as the Railroad Commission.
