Computerized Billing Plan for Athens Area Starts Next Month
Columbia Gas of Ohio plans a bi monthly meter reading system for Athens area customers in 1968 starting January. Bills will be issued monthly while meter reads occur every other month using a new computerized calculation based on 13 months usage plus weather adjustments and billing days. Automatic verification will follow with a monthly meter reading. The program, gradually rolling out across 61 Ohio counties, aims to save about half a million dollars yearly in operating costs.
