Partial Deregulation and the Future Performance of Gas Markets --Notes --References --IndexOver the past six decades federal regulatory agencies have attempted different strategies to regulate the natural gas industry in the United States. All have been unsuccessful, resulting in nationwide gas shortages or massive gas surpluses and costing the nation scores of billions of dollars. In addition, partial deregulation has led the regulatory agency to become more involved in controlling individual transactions among gas producers, distributors, and consumers. In this important book, Paul MacAvoy demonstrates that no affected group has gained from these experiments in public control and that all participants would gain from complete deregulation. Although losses have declined with partial deregulation in recent years, current regulatory practices still limit the growth of supply through the transmission system. MacAvoy's history of the regulation of natural gas is a cautionary tale for other natural resource or network industries that are regulated or are about to be regulated.Natural gasLaw and legislationUnited StatesHistoryDeregulationUnited StatesHistoryNatural gasLaw and legislationHistory.DeregulationHistory.343.73/0772QR 600rvkMacAvoy Paul W121412MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910820328403321The natural gas market4059240UNINA
