Gas cost decrease

Posted

PUBLIC NOTICE
The Wyoming Public Service Commission (Commission) approved the Application of Montana-Dakota Utilities Co. (MDU) to pass on a wholesale commodity cost decrease of $0.384 per dekatherm (Dth) to its residential, general, and small and large interruptible service customers, and a decrease of $0.163 per Dth for optional seasonal customers, effective for usage on and after March 1, 2023. The proposed change is due to a decrease in the wholesale commodity price of natural gas offset by a small increase in transportation capacity and pipeline-related costs.
MDU’s proposal results in a decrease of $4.10 or 4.13%, before taxes, for a typical residential customer using 10.7 Dth during March 2023. Actual bills will vary with usage.
Commission Rule Chapter 3, Section 26 allows a utility to pass on, to its customers known or projected commodity cost increases or decreases, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, subject to public notice, opportunity for hearing and refund.
MDU’s Application is available for inspection at the Commission in Cheyenne, Wyoming or online at: https://dms.wyo.gov/external/publicusers.aspx (Enter Record No. 17239).
Anyone desiring to file a statement, intervention petition, protest, or request for hearing must file with the Commission in writing, on or before June 20, 2023. A proposed intervention or request for hearing shall set forth the grounds, the position and interest of the petitioner in this proceeding.
