Book
·
OSTI ID:5157388
Analysis of gas pipeline regulations concludes that mandatory carriage would not solve existing problems, but could introduce new regulatory constraints. It suggests that mandatory carriage is unnecessary because voluntary carriage is growing and federal policy is leaning toward contract arrangements. Some of the problems related to mandatory carriage include the risk of curtailments to all customers, with industrial customers facing the alternative risk of more operational requirements than with contract carriage. There is also the danger that large users will by-pass distributors. 57 references, 3 figures, 1 table.
