Under Regulation Adjustment

A program created in 2014 allowing utilities to charge customers for fixing aging, leaky gas pipes. Due to inflation and increased leaks, charges have grown to over 10% of gas bills. Regulators recently reduced charges by lowering spending limits, removing some interest payments, and incentivizing non-construction leak fixes, potentially lowering bills by almost one-fifth.
