(Indianapolis, IN) - A hearing in La Porte over a proposed rate increase by NIPSCO has been postponed.

 

The hearing by the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission was scheduled for December 18th at the Civic Auditorium, yet has been postponed. It’s going to be rescheduled but, so far, no date has been set.

 

NIPSCO is seeking an increase in natural gas rates to fund higher operating expenses and infrastructure upgrades.

 

Written comments from customers on the proposed rate hike are being accepted until the end of next month by the Indiana Office of Utility Consumer Counselor.

 

Comments can be submitted to the OUCC’s website or by mail.
