Dear Ms. Roy:
Re: FortisBC Energy Inc. and FortisBC Energy (Vancouver Island) Inc.
British Columbia Utilities Commission Order G-45-14 Compliance Filing
2013 – 2016 Gas Supply Mitigation Incentive Program (GSMIP) Term Sheet
On December 19, 2013, by Letter L-76-13, the British Columbia Utilities Commission (Commission) accepted a term sheet for the Gas Supply Mitigation Incentive Plan (GSMIP) for a three year-term from November 1, 2013 to October 31, 2016 (2013-2016 GSMIP Term Sheet).
On April 14, 2014, FEI and FortisBC Energy (Vancouver Island) Inc. filed a revised 2013-2016 GSMIP Term Sheet for Commission acceptance (the Filing) as required by Order G-45-14. This order approved FortisBC Energy Inc.’s (FEI) request to add Asset Management Agreements and NOVA Gas Transmission Limited Pooling Arrangements activities to the non-benchmarked category of the 2013-2016 GSMIP Term Sheet beginning November 1, 2013. Order G-45-14 also directed FEI to file an amended 2013-2016 GSMIP Term Sheet for Commission acceptance within 30 days.
On May 5, 2014, the Commission received further revisions of the 2013-2016 GSMIP Term Sheet (Revised Filing).
The Commission reviewed the Filing and Revised Filing and accepts the accompanying 2013-2016 GSMIP Term Sheet (Amended 2013-2016 GSMIP Term Sheet) as filed in the Revised Filing. The Amended 2013-2016 GSMIP Term Sheet, attached as Appendix A to this letter, will replace the 2013-2016 GSMIP Term Sheet accepted under Letter L-76-13.
Yours truly,
Erica Hamilton
