TOPIC: PSE&G announces gas bill credit to be included in February bills on top of 35 percent total savings since January 2009.

Summary: PSE&G has announced that it is providing a bill credit to be included in February residential gas bills. The bill credit will be 15 cents per therm on all February usage.

WHAT does THIS MEAN FOR CUSTOMERS?

• This gas bill credit means that residential customers who use 200 therms in the month of February will see a reduction of $30.00 included in their bills. Depending on meter reading dates, many customers will see some of the reduction in February and the rest in March.

• The ability to offer a bill credit is the result of technology enhancements PSE&G has made to its customer system.

• This latest action by PSE&G is in addition to the eight gas supply rate decreases in a row for residential customers, for a total of more than $614, or 35 percent, in savings since January, 2009.

• Lower market prices for gas, which are partially due to the availability of abundant and lower cost shale gas, have made it possible for PSE&G to pass along these rate decreases to customers.

what can customers do to manage their winter heating costs?

In addition to the bill credit, PSE&G offers suggestions for steps customers can take to help reduce their winter heating costs even further:

Construction at the Municipal Building will cause temporary changes to our parking and traffic flow.

Beginning on February 1, 2011, the Montclair Avenue entrance to the municipal lot will be closed until construction is completed.

Please use caution when entering from the Union Avenue side as temporary fences have been erected to separate our employees and visitors from the construction activity.

We ask everyone to go slowly and have patience while we work to improve the Municipal Complex.
