Requires public utility to provide daily updates to municipalities concerning public utility service work.
This bill requires public utilities (like gas, electric, or water companies) to provide daily status updates to municipal officials - such as mayors or clerks - about their service work occurring within a municipality's boundaries. This applies to all utility work, including emergency repairs affecting municipal buildings (like schools or fire stations), from the start until completion date. The Board of Public Utilities will create specific rules for how these updates must be delivered, including during emergencies. The law directly affects utilities performing work in New Jersey municipalities and aims to improve local transparency about service disruptions.
