In
addition to the specific areas noted in other sections, AEP has undertaken

manufacturer had breached a contract for the development of a new "smart
tire" technology for tracking various attributes of tire use.

efficient. |

| Economic
Efficiency |
|
A
waste disposal company disposed the waste of a chemical manufacturer.
Subsequent to the disposal, the laws regulating such disposal changed,
and the waste disposal company incurred substantial costs to be in compliance
with the new regulations. The waste disposal company sought reimbursement
from the chemical manufacturer. AEP provided testimony on the economically
efficient way that such costs should be recovered, and testimony that
the amounts the chemical manufacturer had paid were substantially less
than the social costs to dispose the waste. |
