Bill > HB3364

This bill establishes new regulations for industrial utility users, requiring municipally owned utilities and cooperatives to develop service tariff schedules for customers with high electricity demand (fifty megawatts or more annually) and for water utilities and water corporations to create tariff schedules or contracts for customers exceeding two million gallons per day or eighty percent of system capacity, ensuring these large users bear their fair share of costs. Additionally, electric providers must create load-shedding plans with "large-load customers" (defined by customer base size and demand) to protect system operations, prioritizing critical facilities and residential services. The bill also introduces a permitting process through the Department of Natural Resources for "major industrial water users" withdrawing two million gallons or more per day, requiring them to obtain a permit that ensures sufficient water resources, does not exceed eighty percent of the water resource's capacity, and does not interfere with existing or projected in-state beneficial uses, with provisions for permit review, public comment, and enforcement.
