West Liberty Reaches Agreement With Columbia Gas
KENTUCKY....
West Liberty has reached an agreement with Columbia Gas Transmission Co. to halt a shutoff that was scheduled for Monday. Columbia says Elam Utility, which serves around 450 customers in Wolfe and Morgan counties, owes $644,000 worth of gas that it delivered to customers since at least 2006...the amount revised down from $688,000. West Liberty filed this week to buy Elam Utility, a transaction subject to PSC approval. On Thursday, Columbia and West Liberty agreed to delay the shutoff until August 13th. If approved, West Liberty will have two more weeks to retire the company's debt to Columbia. A PSC hearing is scheduled for Monday.
