Rate Schedules 10 and 14A Complaint from Direct Energy Marketing Limited By letter dated August 25, 2005, Direct Energy Marketing Limited (“DEML”) submitted a complaint about Terasen Gas practices related to Rate Schedules (“RS”) 10 and 14A for gas sales to transportation customers and others. Please provide Terasen Gas’ response to the issues and questions raised in the DEML letter, by Friday, September 23, 2005, with a copy to DEML. In the response, please clarify any differences between the current circumstances and the situation under the RS 10 and RS 14A tariffs that have been approved to take effect November 1, 2005. Further to the concern raised by DEML on page 2 of its letter, please clarify the situation with regard to the ability of a RS 14A customer to use RS 10 supply in the 2005/06 gas contract year. If a RS 14A firm supply customer will be able to use lower cost, interruptible RS 10 supply during portions of the year, please explain why this is consistent with the spirit and intent of RS 14A and in the best interest of all stakeholders. Would Terasen Gas support a requirement that RS 14A customers buy all their gas purchases from Terasen Gas under RS 14A? DEML may reply to the Terasen Gas response by Friday, September 30, 2005.
