FPCs Gas Price Rules Spark Controversy and Delays
Washington AP notes the Federal Power Commission rejected many proposed domestic gas sales, keeping foreign supplies costly. Moody, FPC vice chairman, decried “regulatory capriciousness” while dissents challenged rate practices. The agency approved higher prices for imports, with domestic prices rising for consumers. Moody questioned the logic of shifting to higher domestic rates amid emergency imports. The piece mentions a denied demand by Tenace Oil Co. to sell gas to Northern Natural Gas Co. with a proposed 47 cents rate versus a 21.5 cent ceiling.
