(MDU) for approval to increase rates for natural gas service to customers in its South Dakota service territory, consisting of the Black Hills and East River service areas, by approximately $1.5 million based on MDU's test year ending June 30, 2012. MDU is also proposing to consolidate the Black Hills and East River areas into one rate jurisdiction. The Company states a typical residential customer in the Black Hills area using 75 dk on an annual basis will see an average increase of approximately $3.00 per month while a typical residential customer in the East River area using 61 dk on an annual basis will see an average decrease of approximately $1.10 per month.
