An Act making appropriations from a restricted revenue account within the General Fund and from Federal augmentation funds to the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission for the fiscal year July 1, 2024, to June 30, 2025.

This bill allocates state and federal funds to the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission to cover its operating expenses for the 2024-2025 fiscal year. The legislation provides approximately $88.4 million from state sources and about $6 million in federal money specifically for enforcing natural gas pipeline safety and motor carrier safety regulations. These funds will support the commission's staff, including its chairman and commissioners, as well as its Bureau of Safety and Enforcement. The act ensures that any federal money received under this program cannot be billed back to utility companies.
