Gas Rate Hearing Set Back in Wisconsin
A public hearing on proposed natural gas rate increases for Eau Claire and La Crosse areas is rescheduled to 9 a.m. October 13 at the Public Service Commission offices in Madison. Northern States Power Co. seeks about a 4 percent boost. PSC preliminaries favor placing much of the rise in La Crosse due to lower local rates. NSP had sought boosts for areas served by Midwestern Gas Transmission, with La Crosse served by Northern Natural Gas Co. NSP had not requested the La Crosse area be assessed for residents.
