From the transcript
Thank you. Not knowing who will construct or operate the line means that the commission cannot answer questions about whether the spur will be economically regulated or not. Additionally, the commission cannot speak to whether the operator will seek certification under AS4206 or AS4208. At the last presentation, A question was asked about whether the contract or common carriage would be a better fit for the Fairbanks Spur Line. Both paradigms have benefits, but the Commission cannot take a position in favor of either to avoid the appearance of conflict in future filings.
