Requires newly-constructed grocery stores to have generators.

This bill requires all newly-constructed grocery stores (including supermarkets and convenience stores) to install automatic standby generators that provide sufficient power to continue selling food and basic necessities during power outages. The generators must be maintained and tested per future regulations, ensuring stores can operate during emergencies like natural disasters. It directly affects new grocery store developers and builders, applying to stores where construction permits are still pending before the bill's effective date. The policy aims to maintain public access to essential goods during extended power disruptions, as highlighted by issues seen after Hurricane Sandy.
