Colorado-Wyoming Gas Co. v. FPC, 324 U.S. 626 (1945)

Colorado-Wyoming Gas Co. v. Federal Power Commission

No. 575

Argued January 30, 1945

Decided April 2, 1945

324 U.S. 626

Syllabus

1. Wholesales to distributors within State of natural gas which the wholesaler purchases within the State, but which moves in a continuous stream across state lines to the local distributor, are in interstate commerce, and subject to regulation under the Natural Gas Act. P. 324 U. S. 630.

2. The rate reduction ordered by the Commission in this case is sustained to the extent that it reflects a valid reduction in the rates of a company from which the petitioner purchases gas; but, as to the balance of the rate reduction, the judgment approving the rate reduction order is reversed because of inadequate findings by the Commission. P. 324 U. S. 634.

142 F.2d 943 affirmed in part; reversed in part.

Certiorari, 323 U.S. 701, to review the affirmance of a rate order of the Federal Power Commission under the Natural Gas Act.
