AI Summary
This bill amends the existing law to provide more detailed requirements and procedures for the review of municipal aggregation plans by the Department of Public Utilities (DPU). Key provisions include: the DPU must approve any plan that complies with the law, conduct a public hearing prior to making a decision, and have 180 days to review the plan before it is automatically approved. The DPU must provide a written denial order if it rejects a plan, and the municipality can then revise the plan and resubmit it within 30 days without needing additional consultation. The DPU cannot require revisions to an approved plan without first providing notice and a hearing. The bill also allows competitive suppliers providing service to the aggregation to seek an exemption from certain disclosure requirements if they can demonstrate alternative means of providing the same information to customers.
