I.D. No. PSC-39-26-00025-P PURSUANT TO THE PROVISIONS OF THE State Administrative Pro- cedureAct, NOTICE is hereby given of the following proposed rule: Proposed Action: The Commission is considering the petition of Archer Ave Holdings LLC to Submeter Electricity at 147—27 Archer Avenue, Jamaica, New York, located in the territory of Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. Statutory authority: Public Service Law, sections 30, 32-48, 52, 53, 65(1), 66(1), (2), (3), (4), (12) and (14) Subject: Petition to submeter electricity. 29 Rule MakingActivities Purpose: To ensure adequate submetering equipment, consumer protec- tions and energy efficiency protections are in place. Substance of proposed rule: The Commission is considering the petition filed by Archer Ave Holdings LLC (Owner) on June 18, 2026, seeking authority to submeter electricity to a new rental building with fair-market and affordable units at 147-27ArcherAvenue, Jamaica, New York located in the service territory of Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. (Con Edison). The Commission is also considering the Owner’s request for a waiver of 16 NYCRR § 96.5(k)(3), which requires an energy audit for buildings where 20 percent or more of the residents receive income-based housing assistance. In the petition, Archer Ave Holdings LLC requests authorization to take electric service from Con Edison and then distribute and meter that electricity to its residents. Once approved by the Commission, submetering of electricity to residential tenants is allowed so long as it complies with the protections and requirements of the Commission’s regulations in 16 NYCRR Part 96. The Owner states that, because the building is new construction subject to the current New York State Energy Conservation Construc- tion Code, which provides strict energy conservation requirements for new and renovated buildings, including the design and construction of energy-efficient building envelopes, mechanical, lighting and power systems, an energy audit is not necessary. The full text of the petition and the full record of the proceeding may be reviewed online at the Department of Public Service web page: www.dps.ny.gov. The Commission may adopt, reject, or modify, in whole or in part, the action proposed and may resolve related matters.
