requiring disclosure of radiation levels emitted by smart meters.
HB 1743 requires New Hampshire electric utilities to annually provide customers with written information about radiation levels emitted by smart meters installed at their homes. Utilities must deliver this disclosure in paper or electronic format - either as a separate notice or included with a regular bill - and the Public Utilities Commission will oversee compliance and may establish implementing rules. The bill directly affects all residential and business customers with smart meters and the state's electricity providers. This policy mandates transparency about smart meter radiation without altering current funding mechanisms or requiring new state spending.
