AI Summary

  • Requires the Public Utilities Commission to collect information from telecommunications service providers within 12 months following any state or local disaster declared by the Governor, including extent of damage, types of infrastructure used for restoration, and obstacles encountered.

  • Mandates the commission submit collected information annually to appropriate legislative policy committees and post it on the commission's website, broken down by each disaster event.

  • Requires the commission president to annually present a summary of collected information to appropriate policy committees of the Legislature.

  • Permits the commission to make collected information public unless disclosure would present a security threat to the public, property of the provider, or employees, with providers required to identify sensitive information when submitting data.

  • Includes legislative findings that withholding security-sensitive information from public disclosure outweighs the benefits of disclosure, consistent with constitutional requirements for limitations on public access to government information.
