(1) Whether the dairy producer has provided the requisite notice to the electric utility;
(2) Whether the dairy producer has cooperated with the electric utility to allow the utility to complete measuring and testing;
(3) Whether a utility has complied with the commission rules regarding measurement of stray current or voltage;
(4) Whether the utility's measurements demonstrated stray current or voltage at or above the preventive action level;
(5) Whether the utility has properly identified that portion of the stray current or voltage at cow contact points attributable to the utility's distribution system; and
