TMP and Energy Manager Aetcher Challenge Canada Limited Elk Falls Mill POBox 2000 Campbell River, B.C. V9W5C9 Dear Mr. Fitzgerald: Re: British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority Complaint - Request for Extended Force Majeure Relief Further to your November 3, 1997 request for extended Force Majeure relief with regard to your Electricity Supply Agreement with B.C. Hydro, and the prolonged labour strike at the three pulp mills located at Campbell River (Elk Falls), Mackenzie and Crofton, the Commission has reviewed the information fIled by FCCL along with B.C. Hydro's response and advises that the issue of contract disputes is one in which the Commission does not become involved. The December 19, 1984 Decision, in which the Commission developed this policy, is attached for your reference. We are sorry that the Commission's decision was not in favour of FCCL, but suggest the courts may be the best avenue for a decision on a contract dispute concerning an extended force majeure relief. Yours truly, Robert J. Pellatt RJP/cms Enclosure cc: Ms. Darlene M. Barnett Senior Vice President, Marketing and Customer Services British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority
