Ontario Energy Board Commission de l’énergie de l’Ontario
NOTICE OF APPLICATION AND HEARING UNION GAS LIMITED DISTRIBUTION RATES FOR 2013
EB-2011-0210
Union Gas Limited (“Union”) filed a cost of service application on November 10, 2011 with the Ontario Energy Board (the “Board”) under section 36 of the Ontario Energy Board Act, 1998, S.O. c.15, Schedule B, as amended. The application is for an order or orders approving or fixing just and reasonable rates and other charges for the sale, distribution, transmission and storage of natural gas, effective January 1, 2013. The Board’s decision on this application may have an effect on all of Union’s customers. Union’s last cost of service application was conducted in 2006 for rates effective January 1, 2007. For the period 2008 to 2012 Union’s regulated distribution, transmission and storage rates were set on the basis of an incentive regulation framework under which rates were set on the basis of a formula. If the application is approved as filed, the total bill for a typical residential customer in the southern operations area consuming 2,200 m 3 per year would increase by $16.00 per year. For customers in the northern and eastern operations area, the total bill would increase between $60 and $77 per year. This proceeding will not deal with the commodity cost of natural gas. Any changes to the commodity cost of natural gas for customers that purchase gas directly from Union are addressed through the Quarterly Rate Adjustment Mechanism which is a separate regulatory process. Copies of the application and the supporting written evidence are available for inspection at the Board’s office and Union’s office at the addresses listed below. How to see Union’s Application To see a copy of the application, go to the Consumer page of the Board’s website and enter the case number EB-2011-0210 in the “Find an Application” box. A copy can also be seen at the Board’s office and at Union’s office at the addresses indicated below, or on Union’s website http://www.uniongas.com.
