A 3792 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Requires gas stations to maintain backup generators for gas pumps

This bill (A 3792) requires all retail gas stations in the state to maintain backup generators capable of operating gas pumps for at least 48 hours during power outages. It directly affects gas stations that sell fuel directly into vehicles or vessels, mandating they have this equipment to prevent service interruptions. The law specifies that generators must keep pumps functional after the main power fails, without defining additional requirements like generator size or maintenance standards. This is a concrete regulatory change focused on ensuring fuel access during grid disruptions.
