National Fuel Gas has filed a base rate case with the Pennsylvania Public Utilities Commission.
In the natural gas utility’s cover letter, the gas utility indicates that National Fuel is seeking a base rate increase of approximately $ 19.7 million.
If the Company’s entire request is approved, the total bill for a residential customer using 80 ccf per month would increase from $83.49 to $88.44 per month, or by 5.98/0.
