MI SB0965

Allows providers to immediately shut off service for health or safety reasons and requires providers to notify fire code officials within 24 hours of such shutoffs and leave notice at the premises.

Requires fire code officials to contact customers within 24 hours after receiving notification of a shutoff and permits fire code officials to request providers identify customers whose usage rates during the preceding 90 days constituted a high-hazard condition.

Defines "high-hazard condition" as a condition on a provider's distribution system that consistently exceeds equipment capacity, is impractical to remediate, and poses high risk to system integrity, service, safety, or property.

Requires providers to restore service only upon customer request and fire code official confirmation that a high-hazard condition no longer exists when service was shut off under these new provisions.

Repeals previous provisions establishing the vulnerable household warmth fund and associated funding and distribution mechanisms that existed under prior law.
