Summary

The bill would force the Public Utilities Commission to make large electric utilities list the information they need for new service applications, post sample applications online, and set clear timelines for reviewing them. It also requires utilities to notify applicants when their request is complete, give them a chance to fix any missing items, and promptly send approval notices by email. The goal is to speed up service connections and increase transparency.
