Gas Utilities Fight Ban on Cutoffs in West Virginia
Gas utilities argued against a proposed five month moratorium on service cutoffs for non payment, saying it shifts uncollectable bills to other customers. James W. Freeman of Washington Gas Light Co. warned the rule could create interest free loans and reduce payment incentives. The plan would ban cutoffs Nov 1 to Mar 31, affecting residential, industrial, and commercial customers, with some backers supporting the residential scope. Columbia Gas System officials warned it would raise uncollectable debt and late year bill burdens for ratepayers.
