§859. Public purpose; restoration and rebuilding of certain utilities
The provision of electricity and natural gas is a crucial element in the continued prosperity of Louisiana's citizens and businesses. The swift restoration of electric and gas utilities following natural disasters such as tropical storms, hurricanes, and floods can minimize the devastating effects of such disasters. Therefore, the restoration and rebuilding of electric and gas utilities as a result of a natural disaster is hereby recognized to be a valid public purpose in the best interests of the citizens and businesses of the state.
