From the transcript

Thank you, Mr. Chairman. The reason I ask is that I think there was conversation a few minutes ago about a barrel of oil equivalent in gas having a value like $9 versus a barrel of oil, which, you know, we cry a little bit when it's 60. And right now we're doing pretty well on the budget within at 105 or 110. So there, that's not something the commission looks at. That's something that the legislature has to look at.
