The Public Utilities Commission of Nevada supervises and regulates the operation and maintenance of utility services in Nevada. The agency has two headquarters, one in Carson City (39°10′15″N 119°45′24″W / 39.170841°N 119.756725°W) and one in Las Vegas (36°05′18″N 115°17′25″W / 36.088245°N 115.290164°W).
The Railroad Commission of Nevada was established in 1907. The Public Service Commission of Nevada was formed in 1911, sharing the same commissioners, personnel, and offices of the Railroad Commission. In 1919, the responsibilities of the two bodies were consolidated under a new Public Service Commission. The commission was renamed as the Public Utilities Commission in 1997, when its duties relating to trucking, taxis, and other transport issues were moved to the newly formed Transportation Services Authority.
