January 1 - March 1
If you wish to switch gas rates, the process for doing so begins several
months in advance. Between Jan. 1 and Mar. 1, you will need to complete
a Notification of Intent to Switch Natural Gas Rate Schedules form and send
it to WPS. This first step in the rate-switching process,
and it notifies us of your intentions. The actual switch will occur the
following November 1.
November 1
Before the Nov. 1 switch date, several addition forms are needed to
complete the rate-switching process:
- Marketer Verification Agreement -
(formally - Agent Verification Agreement): you should complete this form with your gas
marketer or broker. It tells us who your
marketer or broker is, who we should notify if there is a gas constraint (you, your marketer
or broker, or both), who has permission to access your information, and where your bill should be sent.
- Electric Interruption/Gas Constraint Notification form:
This form indicates which individual(s) at your company or your marketer's company should be
notified if there is a gas constraint or interruption. Your WPS account
executive will meet with you personally to complete this form.
- Gas Transportation Contract: A gas transportation contract is required for
all customers who transport gas to our system. Your WPS account executive
will meet with you personally to complete this contract.
- PEGASys online request form:
After completing this form, you will gain access to the WPS
online system for gas transportation marketers. You'll be able to view your hourly natural gas
use over a secure connection.
Please note: If you are switching to traditional gas transportation service, you will need to supply uninterrupted 120-volt power to the metering site.
