New Jersey A4624 mandates electric public utilities to create service restoration plans for communities relying on well water or septic systems.

New Jersey A4624 requires electric public utilities to develop service restoration plans for communities where at least 40% of residential customers rely on private well water. These plans must prioritize essential services, including water resources, for these communities in the event of a sustained interruption of utility service following a major event. The Board of Public Utilities must ensure these plans are submitted within one year and posted on its website. This measure aims to ensure timely restoration of essential services to protect public welfare.
