Gas Rate Hike Proposal Brought Before Texas Utilities Board
A Lone Star Gas proposal to raise natural gas rates was heard by the Texas Railroad Commission. Lone Star seeks an 8 percent return on a $1.30 billion investment including pipelines. If approved, the change could affect about 300 North Texas cities, but city councils in each locale must authorize the increase. The company argues a higher investment base supports the rate increase, while opponents say it inflates costs without guaranteed returns.
