PSC orders Frederick Gas to cut rates and issue refunds
The Public Service Commission requires the Frederick Gas Company to lower rates effective soon and refunds about 306,900 to customers for the last year. A typical residential gas heating home will save about 26 dollars from the refund and under 20 dollars from the rate cut next year, with smaller gains for gas appliance users. The move follows higher past returns and a non routine adjustment, with company president James W. Freeman noting no wrongdoing and PSC secretary Ronald Hawkins stressing the refunds are not routine.
