Bill > S07869

This bill amends the New York Public Service Law to require that when the public service commission publishes information about proposed rate changes for gas or electric service, they must now include specific details about changes to service and delivery charges for residential, commercial, and industrial ratepayers. Currently, rate change information must be published, but this bill expands the requirement to explicitly break out the components of those changes, particularly focusing on service and delivery charges. The bill would apply to how rate change information is presented, making the published information more detailed and transparent about exactly how different types of utility customers might be impacted by proposed rate adjustments. The amendment will take effect 30 days after becoming law, which is a standard implementation timeline for legislative changes in New York. By mandating this additional level of detail, the bill aims to provide utility customers with a clearer understanding of potential rate increases and the specific areas driving those changes.
