SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)

Public utilities; landfill gas. Excludes companies selling or delivering landfill gas and/or electricity generated from landfill gas, from a solid waste management facility permitted by the Department of Environmental Quality from the definition of a public utility. The exclusion applies to any company that sells the landfill gas (i) to not more than one commercial or industrial purchaser, (ii) from the solid waste management facility, and (iii) after the natural gas or electric public utility, municipal corporation or county providing gas service does not agree, within sixty days after the company makes an offer, to purchase the gas on mutually satisfactory terms. The public utility within whose certificated gas service territory the purchaser of the landfill gas is located may file for approval of a proposed tariff to reflect any changes in service resulting from the purchaser’s use of the landfill gas.
