Livingston set to receive some $88,000 following a successful intervention in a natural gas rate case involving the East Tennessee Natural Gas pipeline. He said the $88,000 figure is an estimate based on the 197,000 dekatherms of natural gas the city purchased between November and March. He said while the war in the Middle East has caused some spikes in liquid natural gas prices, domestic gas prices currently remain in the $3 range compared to nearly $10 following the 2022 invasion of Ukraine. He said such a pattern typically results in a warmer winter, which could lead to lower gas prices due to decreased demand. Lingerfelt said he expects the pipeline company to file its next rate case in five years.
