Amends the Electric Service Customer Choice and Rate Relief Law of 1997 in the Public Utilities Act. Provides that certain rates of calculation shall be established by reference to the weekly H.15 Statistical Release or successor publication of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Provides that, of each of the following that are published in that weekly Statistical Release or successor publication, the lowest shall be used: (i) monthly average nominal yields of 20-year U.S. Treasury Bonds, (ii) Monthly Average Nominal Treasury Long-Term Treasury Rates (25 years and above), and (iii) monthly average nominal yields of 30-year U.S. Treasury bonds. Deletes a provision requiring the use of the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond rate until it ceases to be included in that publication and thereafter the Monthly Treasury Long-Term Average Rate (25 years and above) in establishing those rates of calculation. Makes corresponding changes.</SynopsisText></synopsis>
