Utility Commission Refuses to
Allow $2.05 Asked by Co'm-
pany Fixes New Prico
Trenton, Nov, 14. In nllouinK the
Ocrnn Cotiuty Ons Co. to put 'into
effect rates for pas lower tlinn thnt
tiotltiotic'l for by the company, the I'ub
lie Utility Commission in n memornn
diltn hnnileil down Hero ilerlnieil it wan
fiitislled that the company requites nil
(litioual reveniiQ in order Hint it may
continue to function. After dismissing
the oriRinul petition of the gas company
the boaid gave it permission to put into
effect a modified schedule.
Under the decision of the hoard tin
Ocean county concern will he permitted
to charge at the rate of .$1.70 n thou
sninl cubic feet for metered gas, less n
discount of live cents, nnd .$1.15 a
thousand cubic feet for gas furnished
the Tiukerton fias Co., together with
fixed service charges heretofoic allowed
by the commission.
Heretofore the mmpiiuy cliaiged at
the rate of .$l.ri." a thousand cubic feet,
less n discount for prompt payment, In
Its petition the companj asked permis
sion to chin go at the rate of Sl!.()," a
thousand cubic feet to all gnu con
sumers for dnmotic purposes uiiil SI. 4.1
for gns furnished the TucKertoii con
cern. In supporl of itrt petition the torn
pnny set forth that the territory sencd
is sparsely settled and consequently the
cost of distribution is huge in compari
son with other companies serving mote
densely populated communities. The
character of consumption, it was shown
by the' company, is that of a seasonal
resort, because many customers take
gas only during the summer months and
this necessitates n laiger 'plant, in pto
portion, than if the consumption
throughout the season was more nearlj
an average.
Inctensed cost of labor and inaterlul.
together with the cost of an additional
gas holder and larger generating plant,
vecommended to be installed by the
board, together with the cost of meters
for the new customers which would ap
proximate $45,000, were other reasons
assigned in asking for nn increase in
rates.
After showing that the company has
installed a larger boiler and blower set,
thereby increasing the capacity of the
generators now in plnre, the board con
cluded the installation of the new ap
paratus will be held in abeyance until
May 23. IIIL'O. when it will be deter
mined after hearing what fmther action
will be taken with respect to the char
acter of service afforded by the company.
