SB 420 Connecticut Senate · 2026 Regular Session

AN ACT CONCERNING NATURAL GAS AND GAS COMPANIES.

This bill updates the legal definition of a "gas company" in the state's statutes to clarify which entities are subject to specific regulations. It explicitly excludes biomass gasification plants that do not own or operate gas distribution infrastructure, municipal gas utilities owned by local governments, and entities approved to submeter gas. The change aims to narrow the scope of who is classified as a gas company for regulatory purposes, affecting how these businesses are governed under existing laws. The amendment takes effect on October 1, 2026.
