Bill > A03503

This bill amends the Public Service Law to require each electric corporation to establish a unique priority phone number that will be operational every day of the year for customers who have documented their need for essential electricity for medical needs. The bill outlines various functions of this priority phone number, including allowing customers to register their medical needs, receive information and updates during electric service disruptions, and access resources like dry ice distribution, power charging locations, and transportation to medical facilities. The bill also requires electric corporations to provide notice and identification of this priority phone number through various communication channels.
