PENNSYLVANIA PUBLIC UTILITY COMMISSION Interim Guidelines for Eligible Customer Lists; Doc. No. M-2010-2183412 [44 Pa.B. 7309]
[Saturday, November 15, 2014]Final Order On October 23, 2014, the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission (Commission), adopted an order at this docket, directing the state's electric distribution companies (EDCs) to reach out to customers every three years to give customers the opportunity to review the customer information that EDCs provide to electric generation suppliers (EGSs).
EDCs maintain an ''eligible customer list'' that contains customer information such as historic usage and service address. Telephone numbers are not included in that information. EDCs then provide that list to EGSs. Customers may contact their EDC at any time to restrict the information that EDCs provide to EGSs.
The purpose of the eligible customer list is to provide EGSs, PUC-licensed competitive electric suppliers, with important information that assists EGSs in identifying potential retail customers and tailoring products and services to meet customers' interests and needs. EGSs must still comply with the state's ''Do Not Call'' list.
On June 19, 2014, the Commission, adopted a Tentative Order, seeking public comment on recommendations from the Commission's Office of Competitive Markets Oversight regarding interim guidelines for eligible customer lists. Comments were due on July 21, 2014 and reply comments were due on August 4, 2014. Upon review of the comments, the Commission issued this Final Order on October 23, 2014.
