Luis González Delgado, president executive of the AAA (Puerto Rico's water and sewer authority), said during a public hearing of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Commission that an automatic credit for prolonged service interruptions could affect the corporation's finances and its ability to repay debt. ^[1] House Bill 1334, under consideration in the Puerto Rico House, would grant subscribers a 20% discount on the base charge when service is interrupted for 24 hours, with additional discounts for each subsequent 24-hour period, up to 100% of the monthly bill. ^[2] José Hernández Concepción, the bill's author and commission president, said that relief mechanisms should be established through legislation to prevent future AAA administrations from modifying them. ^[3] Luis González Delgado argued that an interruption does not generate water consumption that can be recorded and billed to the customer, and that not all subscribers connected to the same pumping system necessarily experience a failure in the same way. ^[4] The proposal, known as House Bill 1334, stipulates a 20 percent discount on the base charge when a subscriber remains without service for 24 hours, with additional discounts for each subsequent 24-hour period up to a maximum of 100 percent of the monthly bill. ^[5]
