Short description: 
ELECTRIC RELIABILITY DAMAGES                                               

Synopsis of Bill as introduced:
        Amends the Public Utilities Act.  Requires the Illinois  Commerce      
   Commission  to  establish  a  statewide  electric  utility reliability      
   standard.  Requires the  standard  to  include  a  maximum  number  of      
   electric  service  outages and a maximum number of cumulative hours of      
   electric service outages in a calendar year for  any  single  electric      
   utility  customer beyond which service is deemed unreliable.  Requires      
   the Commission to develop a means of enforcement of the standard  that      
   includes  the  waiver  of  the  fixed customer charge for any customer      
   whose electric service has failed to meet the reliability standard  in      
   any  given month. Provides that the utility is responsible for damages      
   incurred by a customer and caused by a service outage.                      
          STATE MANDATES FISCAL NOTE                                           
          In the opinion of DCCA, HB1537 fails to create a State mandate.
