How to get utilities reconnected this winter

Beginning October 16, residential customers can utilize the Winter Reconnect Order to reconnect or to avoid disconnection of their electric and/or natural gas utilities. In order to use the Winter Reconnect Order, an Ohioan must have service with an investor-owned electric and/or natural gas company. The Winter Reconnect Order fact sheet can be accessed at http://www.occ.ohio.gov/publications/assistance_programs/Factsheet_Winter-Reconnect-Order.pdf. Also, here is a link to other utility assistance programs and ways to stop a disconnection of service. http://www.occ.ohio.gov/publications/factsheets-assistance.shtml
