Winter Gas Said Ample for Area Residents
By JOHN BROOKS Kansas Staff Reporter
Lawrence residents using natural gas won't have any problems heating their homes this winter, but the University of Kansas may have trouble getting enough heating fuel, according to William Salome, vice president and general manager of the Kansas Public Service Gas Co. (KPS) in Lawrence.

past few months and another increase expected in January will raise the average household's gas bill $3 to $5 a year, Salome said.
"We don't produce our own gas, but buy what we need from Cities Service Gas Co. We, in turn, sell this gas to the public and industry for use in heating, cooling, air conditioning and electric power generation," Salome said.
He said that KPS was only a distributor of natural gas.
ALTHOUGH RESIDENTS using natural gas will have enough for heating this winter, the story will be different for industrial concerns with interruptible contracts if cold weather forces unexpected cutbacks in natural gas, Salome said.
"They pay a great deal less for gas than the residential customer, but their supply of gas can be cut and interrupted whenever necessary," Salome said.
He said customers supplied on an in-venture insulation usually had their gas cutter winter.
Salome said KU was a major intermittent customer.
"They are required to discontinue using gas every winter, the length of time depending on the severity of the weather," he said.
When an interruptible customer has to turn off the flow of gas, KPS simply calls and tells them to go off gas and the customer compiles. Salome said.
"ALL INTERRUPTIBLE customers have secondary energy supplies, usually fuel oil, and it takes only 15 minutes to convert from one source to the other," he said. "All have storage facilities, usually underground fuel tanks, which are nearby."
KU has one 240,000 gallon fuel oil tank and it recently converted for oil storage an old water tank with a capacity greater than 240,000 gallons. The 240,000 tank is 10' Saloon said.
He said KU used 190,000 gallons of its secondary fuel source last year.
"The University has played it smart, I think, because as time goes on, particularly in the next five or seven years, they will be required to go to an alternate fuel source more often, and when they do, they will have that supply," he said.
Salome said that other major intertrouble customers in the Lawrence area
