“As numerous recent enforcement matters have shown, there are real benefits to parties that cooperate with commission investigations,” Grewal said. “These benefits can affect both the charges (e.g., declinations) and the remedies (e.g., reduced or zero civil penalties) the division may recommend and that the commission may ultimately impose.”
