(2) the vendor may not discriminate against a household receiving heating assistance in the cost of goods, conditions of sale, or services provided;

(3) the vendor shall avert disconnection of service, reconnect discontinued service, or deliver fuel upon notification from the division that a household is entitled to receive heating assistance, unless to do so would violate a tariff of the Regulatory Commission of Alaska;
