MINOR
This bill was amended to add more sponsors and update the procedural status, showing it has moved through committee review. The main substantive change is a rewording of the notice requirement language to clarify that the 45-day notice applies specifically to rate or charge increases as defined elsewhere in the law, rather than any increase in rates or charges.
REQUIREMENT
The language requiring 45-day notice to customers was reworded to specify that the notice applies to rate or charge increases as defined in paragraph (c) of the same subdivision, adding clarity to the scope of the requirement.
TECHNICAL
Multiple sponsors were added to the bill, and the procedural history was updated to reflect that the bill has been amended, discharged from committee, and recommitted.
