Natural Gas System Rebuild
No Rate Impact on Customers
• There is no anticipation of a rate impact on customers over the next three
years. Phase one is expected to cost approximately $70-$75 million.
• Entergy New Orleans has sought and obtained alternative sources of funds for
costs associated with Hurricane Katrina, such as insurance proceeds; and the
company continues to pursue insurance proceeds for hurricane-related damages
to its infrastructure.
• A complete rebuild of the gas system is expected to take at least 10 years
at a cost of approximately $465 million.
