BISMARCK, N.D. – In a release Thursday, Montana-Dakota Utilities Co. is asking customers to immediately reduce natural gas usage in the Black Hills region until further notice. MDU’s natural gas supplier is experiencing supply constraints due to an equipment issue and the extreme weather conditions.
MDU gas customers can help by lowering their thermostat as much as they can comfortably manage, minimizing hot water usage, and turning off natural gas fireplaces, garage heaters and any other non-essential appliances that use natural gas.
With customers’ cooperation, MDU expects it will maintain service to natural gas customers in the region.
