ICC Orders Cut In Pipeline Fees
The Interstate Commerce Commission ruled unanimously to cut oil company fees for the Alaska pipeline by about 20 percent. It rejected most proposed rates, allowing Phillips to refile later, and warned companies they could be forced to operate at lower rates. The decision limits return to 10 percent and avoids double counting borrowed money interest, a change with limited impact on consumers but benefits Alaska and native communities.
