Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 2279 -- Gas Corporations

Sponsor:  Wright (159)

This bill requires purchased gas adjustment rates to include the
gas cost portion of net write-offs incurred by a gas corporation
in providing service to its customers as part of rate adjustments
in the purchase price of natural gas approved by the Missouri
Public Service Commission.  These write-offs will not count as
tariff increases for the purpose of the gas corporation's revenue
notification requirements to cities and counties in
Section 393.275, RSMo.  A prior general rate proceeding, for
purposes of approving an Infrastructure System Replacement
Surcharge by the commission, will be extended from three years to
five years for any gas corporation that had initiated three or
more general rate proceedings in the 10-year period prior to
January 1, 2008.
