PA residential gas prices have averaged lower for several years.

Not sure if your link is talking about just the gas rates and not the actual final cost to consumer.
This is my reality:
*************************
“If our proposed adjustment is approved by the PUC, the average total bill for a residential customer who purchases 69 therms of gas per month from Columbia Gas would increase from $90.04 to $97.82, an 8.64 percent increase.”
Annual increases, plus quarterly adjustments based on market forces.

When was the last time Columbia Gas asked to adjust its rates?
We last filed for a base rate adjustment in March 2014. The proposed rates were implemented in December 2014.
