Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

1 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

State OK for cross-state power line costs

If enacted, power line companies that serve customers in more than one state would face new limits on who they can charge. They could not bill customers in other states for a project built to carry out a state or local policy. Out-of-state customers could be charged only if their state, or a designated state official, clearly agrees. The bill presumes only that state's residents cause and get the benefits from such projects. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission would have six months after enactment to issue rules to put these limits in place.
