Order M09484 In the matter of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act

- and -

In the matter of prescribing prices for petroleum products pursuant to Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act and Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations

Before: Jennifer L. Nicholson, CPA, CA, Member

Whereas the purpose of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations is to ensure just and reasonable prices for specified petroleum products taking into consideration the objectives of preserving the availability of such products in rural areas, stabilizing prices of such products and minimizing the variances in prices of such products across the Province;

And whereas the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board (“Board”) considered the manner in which it would proceed to set petroleum product prices in its decision, 2006 NSUARB 108, issued on October 16, 2006;

And whereas the Board revised the wholesale margin effective January 4, 2013, in its decision, 2012 NSUARB 213, issued on December 12, 2012;

And whereas the Board revised the retail margin and the transportation allowance effective October 28, 2016, in its decision, 2016 NSUARB 168, issued on September 26, 2016;

And whereas the average of the average of the daily high and low reported product prices (in Canadian cents) for the period ended November 13, 2019, are:

Grade 1 Regular gasoline 59.79¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 67.11¢ per litre Now therefore the Board prescribes the benchmark prices for petroleum products to be: Gasoline: Grade 1 59.79¢ per litre Grade 2 62.79¢ per litre Grade 3 65.79¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 67.11¢ per litre And now therefore the Board has determined, based on historical data regarding price changes and to achieve revenue neutrality, it is appropriate to apply, and the Board so orders, forward averaging corrections of: Gasoline: minus 0.20¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil: plus 0.05¢ per litre And whereas a winter blending adjustment of plus 3.08¢ per litre is required for ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil;

And now therefore the Board prescribes the prices for petroleum products as set forth in Schedule “A” effective on and after 12:01 a.m., November 15, 2019.

Dated at Halifax, Nova Scotia, this 14th day of November, 2019.

And whereas the Board revised the retail margin and the transportation allowance effective October 28, 2016, in its decision, 2016 NSUARB 168, issued on September 26, 2016;

Grade 1 Regular gasoline 58.92¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 66.83¢ per litre Now therefore the Board prescribes the benchmark prices for petroleum products to be: Gasoline: Grade 1 58.92¢ per litre Grade 2 61.92¢ per litre Grade 3 64.92¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 66.83¢ per litre And now therefore the Board has determined, based on historical data regarding price changes and to achieve revenue neutrality, it is appropriate to apply, and the Board so orders, forward averaging corrections of: Gasoline: minus 0.30¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil: minus 0.30¢ per litre And whereas a winter blending adjustment of plus 3.18¢ per litre is required for ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil;
