(December 14, 2018) — Energy Distribution Partners (“EDP”), based in Chicago, Illinois, has acquired Ebbetts Pass Gas Service with operations in the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range in California. This is EDP’s 21st transaction. 
Ebbetts Pass Gas Service was started in 1942 by Harold and Yolanda Mosbaugh to provide propane to local mills for kiln-drying lumber. The Mosbaughs significantly expanded the business into residential and commercial propane and eventually expanded further into gasoline, diesel and sand/gravel sales. Today, the operation serves more than 8,000 customers in Calaveras and Alpine counties, about 100 miles southeast of Sacramento.
Dean and Rodney Korbelik, grandsons of the Mosbaughs, have managed the business in recent years and Yolanda Mosbaugh has remained active in running the company. Ebbetts Pass Gas Service is known for its exceptional service to its long-standing customer base.
According to Dean Korbelik, “When we decided to transition our business, we looked for a quality company to assume ownership of Ebbetts Pass. We selected EDP because of its reputation for treating employees well, providing excellent service to customers and for remaining active supporters of the local community. We are confident we’re leaving our company in good hands with the EDP team.”
Tom Knauff, Energy Distribution Partners CEO, stated, “We are extremely pleased to assume ownership of Ebbetts Pass Gas Service. Dean and Rodney Korbelik and the Mosbaugh family have run a very successful business and established an excellent reputation in the communities they service. We look forward to welcoming their employees to EDP and to continuing to provide exceptional service to Ebbetts Pass customers across their service area.”
