Item 8.01		Other Events
		ONE Gas, Inc. (NYSE: OGS) announced today that its Oklahoma Natural Gas division filed a request with the OCC for an increase in base rates, reflecting system investments and operating costs necessary to maintain the safety and reliability of its natural gas distribution system. Oklahoma Natural Gas’ request, if approved, represents an increase of $50.4 million in base rates and is based on a 10.5 percent return on equity, unchanged from the previous general rate case in 2009. This filing requests the continuation, with certain modifications, of the Performance Based Rate Change plan (PBRC) that was established in 2009. Additionally, the common equity ratio requested is 60.5 percent based on ONE Gas’ actual equity ratio as of December 31, 2014, with debt costs of 3.95 percent. The proposed rate increase would result in a typical residential customer paying $4.98 per month more for the utility’s natural gas delivery service. The filing represents a rate base of approximately $1.2 billion, compared with $980 million included in the PBRC filing in 2014. The change in rate base includes capital expenditures of $155 million. In accordance with Oklahoma law, the OCC has 180 days to consider Oklahoma Natural Gas’ proposed rate changes. The company’s last general rate request filing in Oklahoma was in June 2009 with new rates approved in December 2009. In 2012 and 2014, Oklahoma Natural Gas received approval for new rates under the PBRC mechanism.
