Des Moines, Iowa (RI) — MidAmerican Energy has filed a request with the Iowa Utilities Commission seeking approval to add a capital investment charge to the bill of Iowa residential gas customers.
MidAmerican spokesman Geoff Greenwood says the charge would be four-tenths of a percent.
Greenwood says there are several items the money would cover.
Greenwood says if the charge is approved, it would be a small addition to customer bills.
Greenwood says MidAmerican has around 620 thousand natural gas customers in Iowa. In our area, MidAmerican provides both gas and electric service in Sheldon, Archer, Germantown, Calumet, Sutherland, Granville, Newkirk, Hospers, Boyden, Hull, Rock Valley, Doon, Alvord, and Inwood. They also provide electric service only in a number of smaller communities in our area.
