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, 2026, to June 30, 2027.

This bill appropriates $98.1 million from Pennsylvania's state General Fund and $5.383 million in federal funds to the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (PUC) for its fiscal year 2026-2027 operations. The funds cover the PUC's salaries, administration, and enforcement activities, including the Bureau of Safety and Enforcement. Specifically, the federal funds are designated to enforce natural gas pipeline safety regulations under the Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act. The bill prohibits reimbursing these funds to utilities, ensuring the money directly supports the PUC's regulatory functions.
