The Missouri Public Service Commission reminds you the Missouri’s Hot Weather Law is in effect from June 1 to September 30. The law was created to protect all residential customers of investor-owned utilities from having their electric or natural gas service disconnected due to non-payment when electricity or natural gas is used as the source of cooling or to operate the only cooling equipment at the residence.Regulated utility companies are prohibited from disconnecting service if the National Weather Service forecasts a daytime temp of 95 degrees or more.
