(Creative Energy) filed its 2018-2022 Revenue Requirements Application with the British Columbia Utilities Commission (BCUC) seeking, among other things, approval of a multi-year index based ratemaking mechanism to be applied to setting steam rates (Steam Rates) for the years 2018-2022, including interim and final approval to increase Steam Rates by 2.15 percent, effective January 1, 2018 (Application);

B.      By Order G-200-17 dated December 22, 2017, the BCUC approved, on an interim and refundable basis, a Steam Rates increase of 2.15 percent effective January 1, 2018;

C.      By Orders G-12-18, G-43-18 and G-90-18, the BCUC established, among other things, a written public proceeding and a regulatory timetable for the review of the Application, which included: Creative Energy filing additional information as directed in Appendix C to Order G-12-18, two rounds of information requests (IRs) by the BCUC and interveners, and the filing of written final and reply arguments;
