HB 88 Electric utility service; cooperative to install & operate prepaid metering equipment upon request.
Introduced by: Terry G. Kilgore | all patrons ... notes | add to my profiles
SUMMARY AS PASSED HOUSE: (all summaries)
Prepaid electric utility service. Authorizes electric cooperatives to install and operate a prepaid metering equipment and system upon a customer's request. The equipment and system will terminate electric service immediately and automatically when the customer has incurred charges for electric service equal to the amount prepaid by the customer. Such service would be exempt from existing requirements that a utility provide one billing cycle before initiating a proceeding for a residential customer's nonpayment for local service, pay interest on deposits, return deposits after one year of satisfactory credit, give 10 days' notice prior to terminating service, and not terminate a customer's residential service for nonpayment of basic nonresidential services. Tariffs shall be filed with the State Corporation Commission for review and determination that the tariff is not contrary to the public interest.
