Sec. 41.056. ANTICOMPETITIVE ACTIONS. (a) If, after notice and hearing, the commission finds that an electric cooperative providing customer choice has engaged in anticompetitive behavior by not providing other retail electric providers with nondiscriminatory terms and conditions of access to distribution facilities or customers within the electric cooperative's certificated service area that are comparable to the electric cooperative's and its subsidiaries' terms and conditions of access to distribution facilities or customers, the commission shall notify the electric cooperative.
(b) The electric cooperative shall have three months to cure the anticompetitive or noncompliant behavior described in Subsection (a). If the behavior is not fully remedied within that time, the commission may prohibit the electric cooperative or its subsidiary from providing retail service outside its certificated retail service area until the behavior is remedied.
