Kansas utility seeks gas rate adjustments across all classes
The Kansas Power and Light Company files with the State Corporation Commission for general adjustments to natural gas rates. Brann, the Concordia division manager, says residential bills would rise about 90 cents monthly on average. The move reflects higher wages, taxes, materials, and gas purchase costs, with Hugoton gas prices set to rise 30 cents per ccf from Nov 1 next year. The firm has invested over 22 million since 1943 to expand gas supply and delivery in southwest Kansas.
