Assistance with heating bills
The Georgia Public Service Commission has announced that approximately $10 million dollars in help will be available for up to 60,000 low income NATURAL GAS (not electric) households for heating bills. This includes individuals who are eligible for or are receiving the
senior gas discount program or low income customers who are in Group 1 with the Regulated Provider.
Please note that this funding is NOT the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program LIHEAP funding and applications will NOT be taken at the Community Action Programs who process LIHEAP applications will be credited to marketers who are in the Atlanta Gas Light system.
Persons age 65 and older who have a household income of $14,355 and low income customers who are in Group 1 with the Regulated Provider may be eligible for the
$160 bill credit. The Public Service Commission will be announcing next week how this funding will be credited to one’s account.
