We deal with
two types of energy:
1. HUMAN
Many businesses and industries
are moving into this region from
other parts of the country. They’ve
found that we have a willing work
force, a sensible tax structure.
energy sources.
New industries don’t just move
into your town by accident.
Sometimes years of personal
contacts by your Chamber of
Commerce industrial team and the
industrial development experts at
Lone Star Gas are carried on before
the final decision is reached to
relocate in youriown. "
Your Chamber's industrial team,
aided by the state, county and
utility teams, study the area to make
sure the right industry is matched
with the right pTarit site Ideation.
— A new business or industry helps
your town’s .economy by providing
new jobs and by adding tax dollars
for schools and hospitals and other
community services.
So When you heat about a new
industry moving into your town,
call your Chamber of Commerce
and thank them for another job
well done.
2. NATURAL
To our customers. Lone Star is
“the gas company.’’ We serve over
one million customers in about 400
cities and towns in Texas. That’s a
lot of customers . . . and a lot of
Lone Star Gas to have the available
natural gas energy whenever and
wherever they need it. And we’ve
provided that energy for over 60
years through investments in
pipelines, compressor stations and
the purchase of new, more
expensive gas supplies.
Natural gas produced in the
United States provides over
ONE-HALF of this*eountry’s
industrial energy requirements. And
the availability of adequate natural
gas energy is one of the primary
reasons Jhat more and more
businesses and industries are
moving into this part of the country.
Lone Star Gas is committed to
helping your town attract and keep
industries that can provide jobs and
help the economy. It’s just giiod
business for all of us.
