This bill amends Titles 53 and 66 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to require both municipal authorities and public utilities to notify customers of atypical water usage. Specifically, if either entity determines that a customer's water usage has increased by 200% for one month above the average for that property, they are mandated to provide notice to the customer. The notification must be made through reasonable efforts, including telephone and electronic mail, and should include assistance in identifying potential leaks or other inefficiencies that may be causing the increased usage.

The new sections added to the statutes are 5624 for municipal authorities and 1354.1 for public utilities, both of which outline the requirements for customer notification regarding atypical water usage. This legislation aims to promote awareness among customers about significant changes in their water consumption, potentially leading to more efficient water use and conservation efforts. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
