FORM U-3A-2
Statement by Holding Company Claiming Exemption
Under Rule U-3A-2 from the Provisions of the Public
Utility Holding Company Act of 1935
To Be Filed Annually Prior to March 1
INDIANA GAS COMPANY, INC.
hereby files with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (Commission), pursuant to Rule 2, its
statement claiming exemption as a holding company from
the provisions of the Public Utility Holding Company
Act of 1935, and submits the following information:
1. Name, State of organization, location and
nature of business of claimant and every subsidiary thereof.
Indiana Gas Company, Inc. (Indiana Gas),
Claimant in this statement, is an Indiana
corporation with its principal offices in
Indianapolis, Indiana. Claimant is a "holding
company" (as such term is defined by the Act),
owning all of the issued and outstanding shares of
common stock of Terre Haute Gas Corporation, an
Indiana corporation (Terre Haute) and Richmond Gas
Corporation, an Indiana corporation (Richmond).
Indiana Gas is also directly engaged in the
business of supplying gas service at retail,
including transportation, to ultimate consumers,
all within the state of Indiana. Indiana Gas is a
"gas utility company" and a "public utility
company" (as such terms are defined by the Act).
Each of Terre Haute and Richmond is a "subsidiary
company" of Indiana Gas and is also a "gas utility
company" and a "public utility company" (as such
terms are defined by the Act). While Terre Haute
and Richmond technically exist as separate
corporate entities, in accordance with an order
issued by the Indiana Utility Regulatory
Commission, Indiana Gas, Terre Haute and Richmond
have combined their operations for all purposes and
are transacting business under the name Indiana Gas
Company, Inc. Pursuant to that order, Indiana Gas,
Terre Haute and Richmond maintain accounting
records and financial reports on a consolidated
basis. For purposes of this statement, any
reference to Indiana Gas will, in effect, be
inclusive of the separate corporate entities of
Richmond and Terre Haute.
2. A brief description of the properties of
claimant and each of its subsidiary public utility
companies used for the production, transmission and
distribution of natural or manufactured gas, indicating
the location of principal transmission lines, producing
fields, gas manufacturing plants and gas distribution
facilities, including all such properties which are
outside the State in which claimant and its
subsidiaries are organized and all transmission or
pipelines which deliver or receive gas at the borders
of such State.
The properties of Indiana Gas used for the
production, storage and distribution of gas are
located solely within the state of Indiana except
for pipeline facilities extending from points in
northern Kentucky to points in southern Indiana by
means of which gas is transported to Indiana for
sale or transportation by Indiana Gas to ultimate
customers in Indiana. At December 31, 1994, these
included approximately 9,798 miles of distribution
mains; 467,540 meters, seven reservoirs for
underground storage of purchased gas with
approximately 107,074 acres of land owned and/or
held under storage easements with 10,768,760 Dth of
gas in storage providing a daily deliverability
capacity of 138,860 Dth. Indiana Gas has five
liquefied petroleum air gas manufacturing plants
with a total daily capacity of 36,700 Dth of gas.
These properties are used by Indiana Gas in its gas
operations in which gas is supplied to
approximately 456,000 consumers in 281 communities
in 48 of the 92 counties in the state of Indiana.
The largest communities served are Muncie,
Anderson, Lafayette-West Lafayette, Bloomington,
Terre Haute, Marion, New Albany, Columbus,
Jeffersonville, New Castle and Richmond.
Indiana Gas obtains gas for its operations
primarily from out-of-state producers, brokers and
marketers under both medium-term and short-term
contracts. Gas is transported to Indiana Gas'
system by interstate pipeline suppliers under
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission approved rate
schedules.
