Today’s Bottom Line column:
Despite what you may be thinking, no question is too small for The Bottom Line. To prove it, TBL today presents the first installment of “Is It Just Me?” — questions about issues that rate closer to curiosity than outrage.
And, no, it is not just you. Send appropriately benign questions to The Bottom Line at khunt@courant.com.
Q: In late August we had a propane-fueled backup generator installed. We were very happy to have it during the recent power outage. We had the tanks refilled by our supplier. On receiving the bill I noted a “PGE fee” of $25.54. I called the supplier and, after consultation with someone else, the customer service rep told me that this was a tax on propane used for generators.
An Internet search for the “PGE fee” failed to turn up anything. My question is whether this is a legitimate charge and, if so, what is it for exactly?Thomas F. Semenza, Lyme
