AN ACT CONCERNING REPORTING OF DOUBLE UTILITY POLES.

Summary

The bill directs Connecticut’s Commissioner of Energy and Environmental Protection to set up an online portal where anyone can report instances of double utility poles—two poles within six feet caused by unfinished replacements. The system must be live by July 1 2027, and the commissioner will share quarterly reports of these sightings with the relevant electric and telephone utilities. The aim is to improve pole safety and help utilities address incomplete work more quickly.
