Rev. Stat. § 38:33.

The expense to the commission for the investigation of the matters covered by the petition, including the amounts expended for experts, accountants, or other assistants, and salaries and expenses of all employees of the commission for the time actually devoted to the investigation, but not including any part of the salaries of the commissioners, shall be paid by the parties involved, in the manner fixed by the commission.
