AI Summary

This bill establishes the "Resiliency and Environmental System Investment Charge Program" (RESIC) to allow water and wastewater utilities in New Jersey to recover costs associated with projects that comply with certain environmental requirements or enhance the resiliency, health, safety, or environmental protection of their customers, employees, or the public. The bill outlines the process for utilities to obtain approval for RESIC rates, including submitting a foundational filing with project details, and allows for semi-annual adjustments to the RESIC rate, subject to a cap not to exceed 5% of the utility's total annual revenue. The bill also specifies how the RESIC revenue requirement and rate are calculated, and requires utilities to separately identify the RESIC charge on customer bills.
