 IN ASSEMBLY

 May 13, 2026
 ___________

 Introduced by COMMITTEE ON RULES -- (at request of M. of A. Powers) --
 read once and referred to the Committee on Corporations, Authorities
 and Commissions

 AN ACT to amend the public authorities law, in relation to expediting
 metropolitan commuter transportation authority capital project
 construction by establishing a process for utility relocation neces-
 sary for such construction

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Section 1266 of the public authorities law is amended by
 2 adding a new subdivision 12-b to read as follows:
 3 12-b. For the purposes of this subdivision, the term "required work"
 4 shall mean any necessary removal, relocation, protection, or replacement
 5 of any pipes, mains, conduits or other infrastructure of any public
 6 service corporation and any fixtures and appliances connected therewith
 7 or attached thereto, either temporarily or permanently. Whenever the
 8 authority determines that any required work exists in connection with
 9 the improvement, construction, reconstruction, or rehabilitation of a
 10 transportation facility, all of the following provisions shall apply:
 11 (a) The design for such required work shall be prepared by the author-
 12 ity or the authority's contractor. Such design shall be subject to the
 13 review and approval of the public service corporation, which shall not
 14 be unreasonably withheld. Such review and approval shall be completed
 15 within thirty days, or within such other reasonable period of time as
 16 may be determined by the authority after consultation with the public
 17 service corporation.
 18 (b) In reviewing and approving designs for such required work, a
 19 public service corporation shall not create the need for another public
 20 service corporation to remove or relocate its pipes, mains, conduits or
 21 other infrastructure without the agreement of the authority.
 22 (c) In reviewing and approving designs for such required work, a
 23 public service corporation shall not require the authority to provide
 24 for anticipated future service increases or other betterments, other
 25 than to comply with current standards, without the authority's agree-

 1 ment. Betterments to comply with current standards shall only be
 2 required by the public service corporation within the area of such
 3 required work.
 4 (d) The authority shall bear the cost of all work performed by its own
 5 contractors.
 6 (e) Where the public service corporation determines that it shall
 7 perform any portion of such required work, such portion of such required
 8 work shall be performed according to a schedule determined by the
 9 authority after consultation with the public service corporation,
 10 provided that such schedule is reasonable and that the authority
 11 provides at least thirty days' notice.
 12 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
