This bill mandates that public utilities provide daily updates to municipalities regarding public utility service work, including emergency responses, from the start to the end of such work. The updates must be delivered to the mayor and municipal clerk, or an authorized designee, in a format determined by the Board of Public Utilities. Additionally, the Board is tasked with adopting necessary rules and regulations to implement this requirement, particularly focusing on emergency situations that impact electric public utility services to municipal buildings.
The bill also defines key terms such as "Board," "Emergency," and "Public utility" to clarify the scope of the legislation. It is designed to enhance communication between public utilities and municipalities, ensuring that local officials are kept informed about ongoing service work and any emergencies that may arise. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
