However, the Public Service Authority shall not be otherwise liable, jointly or severally, for the acts, omissions, or obligations of other owners of the combined cycle natural gas unit or units and related facilities, nor shall any money or property of the Public Service Authority be credited or otherwise applied to the account of the operator or other owners of the unit or units and related facilities, or be charged with any debt, lien, or mortgage as a result of any debt or obligation of the operator or other owners of the combined cycle natural gas unit or units and related facilities.
