Why is there no direct link to the UARB's official documents? The official copies of these documents are located in the UARB database, which is part of the Deep Web, a.k.a. the Invisible Web. Deep linking to specific documents in the UARB database is not feasible. How can these important public documents be made reasonably accessible for people (most of us) who are unfamiliar with the terminology and/or the methods of working with these intricate information systems? The easiest and most reliable way is simply to copy the documents of interest into a website that is part of the Surface Web, a.k.a. the Visible Web. That is what has been done here. |

the reasonableness of the expenditure, and the
financial impact on the utility and its customers...
