GR18040476 SOUTH JERSEY GAS COMPANY FOR : APPROVAL OF BASE RATE : 12&0 UPDATE SUMMARY ADJUSTMENTS PURSUANT TO THE : ACCELERATED INFRASTRUCTURE : REPLACEMENT PROGRAM (“AIRP II”) : South Jersey Gas Company ("South Jersey" or the "Company") filed its Petition in this matter on April 30, 2018 (the “Petition”), seeking approval of base rate adjustments associated with the Company’s Accelerated Infrastructure Replacement Program (“AIRP II”), which was approved by the Board on October 31, 2016 in Docket No. GR16020175. With the AIRP II, South Jersey is authorized to invest $302.5 million over five (5) years to enhance the reliability and safety of its gas distribution system by replacing all remaining unprotected bare steel and cast iron mains and associated services within its system. Cost recovery for AIRP II projects is effectuated by an annual adjustment to base distribution rates, effective on October 1. The Petition, as filed, contained actual AIRP II investment data for the period July 1, 2017 through March 31, 2018. With this 12&0 update filing, the Company is providing actual AIRP II investment data through June 30, 2018 and is seeking a base rate adjustment that will take effect on October 1, 2018, to reflect the revenue requirements associated with AIRP II projects placed in service during the period July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018. If approved by the Board, the impact of the proposed base rate adjustment on a residential heating customer using 100 therms in a winter month would be an increase of $1.83, or 1.4%.

More than 300 years later, the state is still a tale of two Jerseys, with the more populous northern portion geared toward New York City and the southern half tuned into Philadelphia – Ben Franklin’s “barrel tapped at both ends.” Do these regional identities mean anything? Well, according to the latest Monmouth University/Gannett New Jersey Poll , if you’re from North Jersey, it means very little. However, if you’re from South Jersey, it means a great deal. When asked whether government spending and programs are distributed fairly across the Garden State or if a certain region is favored, state residents give the edge to the north. About 1-in-3 (33%) say that North Jersey gets more than its fair share of resources. Only 10% feel South Jersey benefits more than it should from public programs. Another 21% feel that aid is divided equitably across both regions and 35% have no opinion. The poll also found that how you see this issue depends on where you live.

Bermuda high pressure will pump in the warm air. Meteorologist Joe Martucci explains if we'll break any records and what the rest of the week will hold. The two Democratic candidates for Atlantic County clerk agreed many people are confused about voting rules and procedures in their online debate Tuesday night, and promised to emphasize voter education and outreach if elected. But progressive candidate Mico Lucide, of Mays Landing, and Egg Harbor City Mayor Lisa Jiampetti disagreed when it came to supporting the current ballot design used in New Jersey. The primary election is June 8, and the winner will face Republican Hammonton Councilman Joe Giralo in the general election. Lucide wants to see an end to bracketing candidates together, with those supported by party committees getting the best ballot placement together under candidates for governor and other higher offices. “In some counties, a county chair makes the determination, and that is not fair,” Lucide said. He acknowledged in Atlantic County it is a vote of the county convention that decides who gets the line. "The ballot is not giving candidates equal access to the eyes of the voter, and that is something we should change." +2 Polistina declines online debate against Grossman in GOP State Senate primary race Jiampetti, on the other hand, said that coveted party line is earned by candidates, and she sees no reason to change the rules.

NJ Common Core Standards: Social Studies: 6.1.12.A.1.a, 6.1.12.A.1.b, 6.1.12.D.1.a FOCUS QUESTION: What factors contributed to the founding of New Jersey and how has this event been remembered and commemorated over time? BACKGROUND: The colonial history of New Jersey began in 1609 when Henry Hudson first claimed the region on behalf of Holland and renamed it New Netherlands. The Dutch West India Trade Company subsequently gave out land grants to encourage settlement, attracting many migrants from Sweden as well as Holland. These newcomers arrived in an area already populated by an estimated eight to ten thousand Delaware Indians. Holland retained political control until 1664, when English Royal Navy warships sailed into what is today New York Harbor and Holland ceded the colony to Britain without bloodshed. Only after the colony became British did Jersey become the official name. On June 24, 1664, James, Duke of York, granted Lord Berkeley and Sir George Carteret, ownership of a swath of land between the Hudson and Delaware Rivers.
