Chema touts PUCO strides and rate reductions
Lorain visit as part of Capital for a Day highlights Chema’s claim that the Ohio Public Utilities Commission has cut rate hikes in two years. He notes two PUCO moves involving Columbia Gas may lower prices, including challenging Columbia Transmission’s charges and approving East Ohio Gas line access to cut costs. He cites a 42 percent rise in 18 months prior to Celeste’s 1983 appointment, now down to 5.4 percent, and discusses Wall Street reactions to PUCO actions.
