          FISCAL NOTE, H-AM 1 (Illinois Commerce Commission)                   
          HB 4667, as amended by H-am 1, will impose some additional           
          costs to the Commerce Commission associated with handling            
          customer complaints, exercising regulatory jurisdiction over
