Why and how have previous Geographic Targeting areas changed?
Three significant changes to the Geographic Targeting areas occurred on January 1, 2009. 1. Newport/Derby area is no longer a Geographically Targeted area. Recent changes in electric distribution system upgrade plans have resulted in the Public Service Board removing the Newport/Derby region from the Geographic Targeting initiative as of January 1, 2009. 2. The addition of the Greater Rutland area. Over 12,000 CVPS customer premises have been added in the Rutland area- they will have a Summer Peak focus. The new area stretches from the south end of Pittsford southward almost to Wallingford and from Center Rutland (west of the city) eastward to Mendon. 3. The expansion of the Northern Chittenden County area. Approximately 1,400 customer premises have been added along both sides of Williston Road in South Burlington from Hinesburg Road to and including Industrial Avenue.
