Panel presentation: LDC rate design and transportation issues
Description
This paper reviews the effects that new pipeline regulatory changes might have on the local distributing company (LDC). The most pronounced effect will be increased costs and a shift in cost allocation among LDC customer classes. The paper reviews the potential impacts of Order 436 which requires the pipeline industry to become a more market-oriented entity. Graphs show the decline in US wellhead gas prices, decline in exploration, and general decline in industrial use of gas which the author attributes to regulatory inflexibility and lack of innovation with the LDC and the pipeline industry
