"Many communities in South Gippsland will soon have access to natural gas for their homes and small businesses for the first time as part of the Brumby Government’s $70 million Natural Gas Extension Program.
Energy and Resources Minister Peter Batchelor said an agreement between gas distributor Multinet and gas retailer Red Energy had been finalised.“The Brumby Government is taking action to provide low-cost energy to Victorians and this agreement will mean residents in Lang Lang, Korumburra and Leongatha will have access to natural gas,” Mr Batchelor said.“The agreement reached between Multinet and Red Energy will allow homes and small businesses in these towns to start getting connected before the end of February.”"
