SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section 1 of this bill amends Public Service Law (PSL) §65(6) to permit service charges on natural gas bills for the installation of capital improvements and fixtures to promote energy efficiency upon the request and consent of the customer. Section 2 of this bill provides for an immediate effective date. EXISTING LAW: PSL §65(6) prohibits gas corporations from imposing additional charges
