New York pols call for transparency in National Grid investigation
“They might be using the moratorium as a political tool.”
A group of 13 state senators, including seven from Brooklyn, are calling for a more publicly transparent investigation by the state into National Grid’s denial of gas to thousands of new and existing customers.
The gas moratorium, which is currently being probed by the Public Service Commission, has affected about 2,700 residents.
“We request that PSC open formal, public proceedings, including a matter and case number, in order to enhance transparency and enable customers and other stakeholders to monitor and participate in the investigation,” the senators wrote in a letter addressed to PSC chairperson John Rhodes on Thursday.
