Petition to Submeter Electricity and Waiver of Energy Audit
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 the petition of 211 Sea Foam Properties, LLC to submeter electricity at 211 West 29th Street, New York, NY and request for a waiver of 16 NYCRR section 96.5(k)(3).
Statutory authority:
Public Service Law, sections 2, 4(1), 30, 32-48, 52, 53, 65(1), 66(1), (2), (3), (4), (12) and (14)
Subject:
Petition to submeter electricity and waiver of energy audit.
Purpose:
To ensure adequate submetering equipment, consumer protections and energy efficiency protections are in place.
Substance of proposed rule:
The Commission is considering the petition filed by 211 Sea Foam Properties, LLC on May 30, 2019, requesting authorization to submeter electricity at 211 West 29th Street, New York, NY, located in the service territory of Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. (Con Edison).
In the petition, 211 Sea Foam Properties, LLC requests authorization to take electric service from Con Edison and then distribute and meter that electricity to its residents. Submetering of electricity to residential residents is allowed so long as it complies with the protections and requirements of the Commission’s regulations in 16 NYCRR Part 96. The Commission is also considering the Owner’s request for a waiver of 16 NYCRR § 96.5(k)(3), which requires proof that an energy audit has been conducted when 20 percent or more of the residents receive income-based housing assistance.
The full text of the petition and the full record of the proceeding may be reviewed online at the Department of Public Service web page: www.dps.ny.gov. The Commission may adopt, reject or modify, in whole or in part, the action proposed and may resolve related matters.
