The electrostatic potential that keeps approximate charge neutrality inneutron star matter is self-consistently introduced into the formalism forrotochemical heating presented in a previous paper by Fernandez andReisenegger. Although the new formalism is more rigorous, we show that itsobservable consequences are indistinguishable from those of the previous one,leaving the conclusions of the previous paper unchanged.Comment: 14 pages, including 4 eps figures. Accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journa
