Requires gas corporations to file maps with the public service commission

Summary

The bill adds a new section to the Public Service Law that forces gas companies to file machine‑readable GIS maps of all current and planned distribution line work each year. The Public Service Commission must publish the maps, alert the Department of Environmental Conservation, and name at least five priority decarbonization neighborhoods in each service area, focusing on disadvantaged communities. The aim is to steer planning toward zero‑emission alternatives and avoid costly, leak‑prone gas infrastructure.
