A presentation on the Residential Energy Affordability Partnership Program on Long Island, originally the topic of an information session last week at the Amagansett Library, has been postponed to 10:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 11, at the Amagansett Library.

Offered by PSEG, this program helps those with lower incomes to conserve energy use, lower their energy bills, make their houses safer and more comfortable, and potentially acquire free, more efficient appliances.

Registration ahead of time is required for this session, online via the event calendar at amagansettlibrary.org or by phone at 631-267-3810.
