PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE State Administrative Procedure Act, NOTICE is hereby given of the following proposed rule:
Proposed Action:
The Commission is considering whether to approve, deny, or modify, in whole or in part, the petition of Hazel Towers Co., LP to amend the order allowing submetering so that it may terminate electric service to tenants who fail to pay their electric bill.

Subject:
Amendment of submetering order to allow Hazel Towers Co., LP to terminate electric service for failure to pay electric bills.
Purpose:
Amendment of submetering order to allow Hazel Towers Co., LP to terminate electric service for failure to pay electric bills.
Substance of proposed rule:
The Public Service Commission is considering whether to approve, deny, or modify in whole or in part, the petition of Hazel Towers Co., LP (Petitioner) to amend the Commission’s Order issued January 3, 2001 (Submetering Order) allowing submetering of electricity at Hazel Towers, located at 1730-1740 Mulford Ave, Bronx, New York 10461 (Hazel Towers).
