AI Summary
This bill requires the Public Utility Commission (PUC) to conduct a comprehensive study on utility infrastructure and submit a detailed report to the interim legislative committees focused on energy by September 15, 2026. The study will involve examining the current state of utility infrastructure, potentially identifying challenges, opportunities, and areas for improvement. The bill includes a sunset provision that automatically repeals the study requirement on January 2, 2027, meaning the PUC's mandate to conduct this specific infrastructure study will expire at that time. The report can include recommendations for potential legislative actions, which will be submitted in accordance with Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 192.245, a statute governing how state agencies communicate findings to legislative committees. This approach allows lawmakers to receive an expert, up-to-date assessment of utility infrastructure that can inform future policy and investment decisions.
