OAR 860-021-0326
Disconnection of Gas or Electric Service to Tenants

(1)

When an energy utility’s records show that a residential billing address is different from the service address, the utility must provide a duplicate of the five-day disconnect notice required under OAR 860-021-0405 (Notice of Pending Disconnection of Residential Electric or Gas Utility Service)(6) for gas and electric service to the occupants of the premises in the manner described in 860-021-0405 (Notice of Pending Disconnection of Residential Electric or Gas Utility Service)(6) unless the utility has reason to believe that the service address is occupied by the customer. This requirement is satisfied by serving a notice addressed to “Tenants” in the same manner provided for in 860-021-0405 (Notice of Pending Disconnection of Residential Electric or Gas Utility Service). The notice to occupants need not include the dollar amount owing.

(2)

When an energy utility’s records show that a residence is a master-metered multi-family dwelling (including rooming houses), the utility must notify the Commission’s Consumer Services Division at least five business days before disconnecting the service. The utility will use reasonable efforts to notify occupants of the impending disconnection and alternatives available to them.
