For each compressed natural gas("CNG") refueling station owned by IGS or IGS CNG Services, please provide the following: a. The location of each station, IGS owns three stations in Charleston, WV, Jane Lew, WV and Bridgeport, WV. IGS will be opening another station in Youngstown Ohio shortly with an intent to continue building stations in OH, WV, PA, IN, KY in the near term. b. The identity of the operator of each station; IGS is the operator ofthe stations references in S(a). c. The electric compression costs per gasoline gallon equivalent("GGE") (in KWH and monthly fixed KW demand charges) of each station; Objection this request is overly board, vague and overly burdensome. Further, Mr. Mrowzinski provides estimates of station costs in his testimony. However, individual stations electric compression costs per GGE are afactor ofstation usage (which changes constantly) multiplied KWH charges, in addition to factoring in demand charges and fixed utility customer charges, thus there is no set electric compression costs per GGE at an individual station as this cost would be changing constantly. Without waiving this objection, IGS estimates that its average electric compression costs for each of its stations are roughly 20-30 cents per GGE. Further, the stations referenced in this question are located in Appalachian Power, Monongahela Power and Harrison RuYal Electrification Association service territories and these tariffs are publically available information and can be accessed independently by Delta in orderfor Delta to obtain the KWH, demand and customer chargesfor those utilities. d. The state and federal road taxes per GGE for each station; Objection this information is publically available and can be easily obtained by Delta. Without waiving this objection, federal and state road tax for CNG in WV is 18.3 cents and 24.4 cents respectively.
