Today, in Cause No. 37488-GCA 71, the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission approved the Cost Adjustment for Community Natural Gas in February, March and April 2002.  Customers will pay less to heat their homes than they did in the last quarter, and the approved rates are lower than one year ago.  The table below shows the impact on customers.
