Overview
This bill prohibits New Jersey utility companies from directly billing customers for the costs of upgrades to their infrastructure resulting from certain projects. It allows utilities to recover these costs through their rate base, but only if customers provide a certification to the Board of Public Utilities confirming that the upgrades were undertaken to mitigate damage from a natural disaster. Customers who fail to provide this certification may be liable for the costs.
