Supreme Court backs FPC gas rate regulation powers
The Supreme Court upheld the Federal Power Commission plan to regulate initial interstate gas sales to protect consumers. Justice Douglas wrote the opinion in a long-running set of natural gas rate cases, tied to a 1954 rule that wellhead sales to pipelines fall under FPC oversight. The decision reinstates actions freezing price increases and refunds, pending final area proceedings for southern Louisiana.
