that is too big, according to a report by the staff of state regulators that recommends a much smaller increase.
But in a report issued Wednesday, the PUCO staff recommended a much smaller increase, $35.2 million to $57.6 million, an increase of 4% to 6.3% in revenue. “Columbia Gas appreciates the time and effort of the PUCO staff," the company said in a statement."We are reviewing the staff report and have no further comment at this time.”
