An Act amending the act of November 29, 2006 (P.L.1435, No.156), known as the Public Utility Confidential Security Information Disclosure Protection Act, further providing for procedures for submitting, challenging and protecting confidential security information.

This bill updates Pennsylvania's Public Utility Confidential Security Information Disclosure Protection Act to create a specific exception for government agencies. It requires public utilities to share emergency response plans and other records with federal or state authorities, such as the National Transportation Safety Board, when there is a reasonable belief of a safety risk or potential harm. The legislation ensures that agencies receiving this information can use it without fear of violating confidentiality rules or triggering public record requests under the Right-to-Know Law. The changes apply to all public utilities in the state and take effect 60 days after the bill is passed.
