SUMMARY AS PASSED:
Public utilities. Adds licensed competitive providers of electrical service to the list of entities from whom lessors may purchase electricity, natural gas, and water for resale to their tenants. A provision prohibiting multiple rate increases in a 12-month period by telephone cooperatives is removed because the SCC does not regulate the rates charged by telephone cooperatives. Finally, the bill corrects a Code citation.
