    Proposed Action:
    The Commission is considering a proposed filing by Consolidated Edison Company of New York, Inc. to make various changes in the rates, charges, rules and regulations contained in its Schedule for Electric Service, PSC No. 9 - Electricity.
    Statutory authority:

(the Company) filed pursuant to Commission Order issued April 24, 2009 in Case 08-E-0539. The proposed filing revises Rule III-2 to permit the Company to designate 265/460 volt service or high tension service when it would result in the least cost to the Company.
