Regulatory Matters Regulatory MattersIn September 2021, Eastern Gas Transmission and Storage, Inc. ("EGTS") filed a general rate case for its FERC-jurisdictional services, with proposed rates to be effective November 1, 2021. EGTS proposed an annual cost-of-service of approximately $1.1 billion, and requested increases in various rates, including general system storage rates by 85% and general system transmission rates by 60%. In October 2021, the FERC issued an order that accepted the November 1, 2021 effective date for certain changes in rates, while suspending the other changes for five months following the proposed effective date, until April 1, 2022, subject to refund. In September 2022, a settlement agreement was filed with the FERC, which provided for increased service rates and decreased depreciation rates. Under the terms of the settlement agreement, EGTS' rates result in an increase to annual firm transmission and storage services revenues of approximately $160 million and a decrease in annual depreciation expense of approximately $30 million, compared to the rates in effect prior to April 1, 2022. EGTS' provision for rate refund for April 2022 through February 2023, including accrued interest, totaled $91 million. In November 2022, the FERC approved the settlement agreement and the rate refunds to customers were processed in late February 2023.
