          FISCAL NOTE (Illinois Commerce Commission)                           
          This legislation would require an increase in the Commission's       
          resources. If the cost of natural gas remains volatile, it is        
          likely the natural gas public utilities would be continually         
          filing rate cases. In times of declining gas costs, it may be        
          necessary for the Commission to initiate rate proceedings to         
          reduce the base rates of natural gas public utilities to en-         
          sure that rates reflect the appropriate level of gas cost.           
          Costs of these proceedings, which cannot be estimated at this        
          time, would be recoverable from the utilities' customers.
