Bill Summary
AN ACT to amend the public service law, in relation to certificate and permit conditions for dormant power generating facilities that are in layup or out of service
AI Summary
This bill amends the public service law to establish new conditions for major electric generating facilities that were permitted prior to 2012 and have provided notification that they are in "layup" or out of service. Specifically, it prohibits the transfer of certificates and environmental permits for such dormant facilities and requires them to obtain new certificates and permits from the Public Service Commission and Department of Environmental Conservation if they want to use fossil fuels to produce electricity or for any other industrial purpose. The bill aims to ensure proper oversight and regulation of these dormant power plants before they can be reactivated.
