OLYMPIA, Wash. —

State regulators have approved rate increases for Puget Sound Energy natural-gas and electric customers.

The Olympian reports that the three-member Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission allowed a 2.8 percent rate increase for electric customers and a 0.8 percent for gas users.

The utility company had asked for a 7.4 percent increase for electric rates and 2.2 percent for gas. The approved rates will likely go into effect next week.
