| ITEM 8.01 | OTHER EVENTS |
On May 2, 2013, Maryland Governor Martin J. O’Malley signed into law the Maryland Strategic Infrastructure Development and Enhancement Program (STRIDE). The STRIDE program will allow Washington Gas Light Company (Washington Gas) to replace and reinforce its natural gas infrastructure system more rapidly. The STRIDE program provides funding for gas pipeline upgrades through a small surcharge approved by the Maryland Public Service Commission for residential, commercial and industrial customers. The program will reduce costs to utility customers through less frequent base rate cases and lower operational expenses in the future.
A copy of Washington Gas’ news release is attached as Exhibit 99.1.
