Lower Mainland, Inland, and Columbia Service Areas
2012 Third Quarter Gas Cost Report
Commodity Cost Reconciliation Account (CCRA), Midstream Cost Reconciliation Account (MCRA), and Biomethane Variance Account (BVA)
On August 29, 2012 FortisBC Energy Inc. (FEI) filed with the British Columbia Utilities Commission (Commission) its 2012 Third Quarter Gas Cost Report (the Report). The Commission acknowledges receipt of the Report and accepts the recommendation that customer rates remain unchanged for the Lower Mainland, Inland, and Columbia service areas as of October 1, 2012.
The Commission will hold confidential the information in Tab 3 of the Report (pages 4.1 to 4.3), as requested by FEI, to protect commercially sensitive information.
Yours truly,
