AI Summary

This bill amends the Public Utility Commission (PUC) section of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to enhance consumer protection and information. Specifically, it requires that any notice of a proposed rate change or system acquisition sent to utility customers include instructions on how to submit comments to the PUC, and that the PUC must, at a minimum, accept comments by mail and electronically, including through a publicly accessible website. This aims to improve public participation and transparency in PUC proceedings related to changes in utility rates or acquisitions.
