7-83-203. Creation on motion of state commission.
The commission may from time to time, on its own motion, make investigations as to the feasibility and propriety of creating districts within the state, of the territory to be served by such districts, and of the character of utility feasible and economically desirable for the districts. If, as a result of such investigations, the commission determines the public convenience and necessity require the creation of a power district or districts; and the creation of a power district or districts is economically sound and desirable, then it shall enter an order making such determination, defining the territorial limits of the district or districts, and designating the character of utilities to be operated in the territory by the district or districts, a certified copy of which order shall be filed. Thereupon, the district or districts shall be and constitute a municipal corporation or corporations as provided in § 7-83-201.
