Jail officials tell us that Steve McComsey's bail is now $10,000 cash or $50,000 bond.

It was previously set at $75,000 cash or $250,000 bond.

McComsey faces six counts of manslaughter in the deaths of six people last July.

Authorities say he tampered with a propane tank in the basement of the Route 29 house, just minutes before it blew up.
