This is why you don't have gas: "The company halted operations because its billing system was compromised ... and they were concerned they wouldn't be able to figure out how much to bill customers for fuel they received."

I would hazard a guess that the losses sustained by sloppy estimating would be less than that of halting operations altogether.

I had the same thoughts. Or maybe there would have been a way to manually release large amounts of gas to the biggest, regular customers where they could sort out the billing mess later while reducing disruption.

Maybe there were regulatory reasons. Can't be held liable by the EPA.
