New Homes Cant Get Natural Gas
The Missouri Public Service Commission ordered MP&L and Missouri Edison to refuse new gas service for most new homes in a region spanning Audrain to Randolph counties due to a natural gas shortage. Exemptions apply only to certain pre-November 16 residential builds on existing mains with construction starting by mid May. Residential heating may shift to electric heat, fuel oil, or propane, with curtailment expected to last two to three years.
