In this decision, the Alberta Utilities Commission: (a) Confirms FortisAlberta’s service area boundaries as presented in the application (FortisAlberta’s expanded service areas); (b) Alters as required, the service area boundaries of rural electrification associations (REAs) to prevent incursion into FortisAlberta’s exclusive service areas under municipal franchise agreements (MFAs); (c) Orders, consistent with the bylaws issued by the Town of Penhold and the Town of Bruderheim, the transfer, as soon as practicable, of REA facilities and customers (members) located within FortisAlberta’s expanded service areas under the MFAs granted to FortisAlberta by those municipalities; (d) Orders the eventual transfer of existing REA customers and associated facilities within the remainder of FortisAlberta’s expanded service areas to FortisAlberta consistent with the Commission’s findings in Decision 22164-D01-2018;1 and (e) Denies, at this time, FortisAlberta’s request for the transfer of REA assets that are located within FortisAlberta’s expanded service areas but are not used to serve an REA member within those service areas namely, those located within the Town of Millet, the Town of Fort Macleod and the Summer Village of West Cove. 2 Details of the application and procedural background 2. On June 4, 2020, FortisAlberta filed an application with the Commission under Section 29 of the Hydro and Electric Energy Act (HEEA), asking for the following orders: (i) confirmation of the current limits of FortisAlberta’s exclusive service areas as determined by applicable MFAs; (ii) alteration, as required, of REA service area boundaries to prevent incursion into exclusive service areas governed by MFAs; and (iii) eventual transition of existing REA customers and associated facilities to FortisAlberta. 1 Decision 22164-D01-2018: FortisAlberta Inc. Application for Orders Confirming Boundaries of FortisAlberta Inc. Exclusive Municipal Franchise Areas, Proceeding 22164, Application 22164-A001, July 16, 2018, paragraph 153(c) and (d). Decision 25644-D01-2021 (February 17, 2021) 1 Application for Orders Confirming the Boundaries of FortisAlberta Inc. Exclusive Municipal Franchise Areas FortisAlberta Inc. 3. In support of its application, FortisAlberta indicated that it had undertaken an internal review of the current boundaries of its various municipal franchise areas. From this review, FortisAlberta identified zones of overlap as between itself and REAs. It identified in Appendix F,2 that the updated service area boundaries would affect the following REAs: Battle River Power Cooperative REA Ltd., EQUS REA Ltd., Mayerthorpe and District REA Ltd., North Parkland Power REA Ltd., and Tomahawk REA Ltd.3 4. The Commission established an initial process for the proceeding and issued rulings pertaining to service of the application on affected members and on a request for confidential treatment. 5. Statements of intent to participate (SIPs) were received from Battle River, the Alberta Federation of REAs (AFREA), Epcor Distribution and Transmission Inc., EQUS, Mayerthorpe and David Kaun. Of particular note was the EQUS SIP that raised as an issue whether FortisAlberta intended to include electric distribution system assets owned by the REA that pass through the annexed boundaries of an urban municipality that do not provide service to any REA member inside those boundaries. 6. The Commission pursued this issue through information requests (IRs) to FortisAlberta. Following receipt of FortisAlberta‘s responses, the Commission issued a letter setting out the scope and process for the remainder of the proceeding.4 The Commission considers that the record for this proceeding closed on November 18, 2020, the date that the FortisAlberta reply argument was due. 7. In reaching the determinations set out within this decision, the Commission has considered all relevant materials comprising the record of this proceeding. Accordingly, references in this decision to specific parts of the record in this proceeding are intended to assist the reader in understanding the Commission’s reasoning relating to a particular matter and should not be taken as an indication that the Commission did not consider all relevant portions of the record with respect to that matter. 3 Discussion of issues and Commission findings 8. FortisAlberta’s application concerns two distinct matters: (a) The confirmation of service area boundaries and the transfer of REA members and facilities within an annexed distribution service area where there are REA members being served by the REA within that service area; and (b) The confirmation of service area boundaries and the transfer of REA facilities within an annexed distribution service area where there are electric distribution system assets owned by the REA that pass through the annexed boundaries of the urban municipality, do not provide service to any REA member inside those boundaries but are a part of REA 2 Exhibit 25644-X0005, June 4, 2020. 3 No current customers were identified by FortisAlberta in the overlapping service area of Tomahawk. 4 Exhibit 25644-X0080, October 29, 2020. Decision 25644-D01-2021 (February 17, 2021) 2 Application for Orders Confirming the Boundaries of FortisAlberta Inc. Exclusive Municipal Franchise Areas FortisAlberta Inc. facilities used to serve REA members outside of the annexed distribution service area (pass-through assets). 3.1 Annexed distribution service area and REA members are being served by the REA within the annexed boundary 9. In Proceeding 22164, the Commission examined the legislative and public interest considerations to determine whether to alter electric distribution service area boundaries to align with MFAs entered into between FortisAlberta and various municipalities whose corporate boundaries had expanded through annexation and overlapped with an existing REA service area. In all those instances examined in that proceeding, there were REA members being served by the REA within the annexed distribution service area. For the reasons set out in its decision, Decision 22164-D01-2018, the AUC confirmed FortisAlberta’s exclusive franchise areas to correspond to the corporate limits of the municipalities. However, the Commission did not require the immediate transfer of existing REA facilities and members in the annexed (formerly overlapping) distribution service areas absent a municipal bylaw requiring those members to connect to FortisAlberta. It found that: 153. […] (c) Any existing REA member, who is currently taking electric distribution service from one of the affected REAs within the corporate limits of a municipality identified in Appendix A to this decision, may continue to be served by the REA until such time as the municipality passes a bylaw requiring the REA members in the municipality to take electric distribution service from FortisAlberta. If a municipality does not pass any such further bylaw, the affected REA has the Commission’s approval to continue to serve an existing REA member within the municipality’s boundaries until the earliest of: (i) the existing REA member electing to transfer to FortisAlberta, (ii) a change

  • Lamont County
    Church Capital of North America LAMONT COUNTY The strange new world did not deter them To build a church they could ill afford Their way of life was not complete Without an edifice to the Lord. Welcome to LAMONT COUNTY’S SELF-GUIDED CHURCH TOURS Lamont County has 47 churches— more per capita than anywhere else in North America. Lamont County has a proud legacy as the birthplace of the oldest and largest agricultural settlement of Ukrainians in Canada. The nucleus of the pioneer Ukrainian colony was in the vicinity of Star, some seven miles (11.6 km) north- east of the modern-day town of Lamont. There, in 1894, four immigrant families filed for adjacent homesteads at what became the centre of a thriving bloc settlement that eventually encompassed the region that now comprises the Kalyna Country Ecomuseum. Not surprisingly, the historic Star district was also the site where organized Christian life first took root among the Ukrainians of Alberta, about the same time that the sod huts originally put up as temporary shelters by the pioneers began to be replaced by modest, thatched-roofed houses. As more and more newcomers from Europe made East Central Alberta their home, Lamont County experienced a remarkable church-building boom expressive of the deep Christian faith brought over from the Old World by the set- tlers. This rich spiritual heritage is still very much in evi- dence today, in the numerous churches that can be found in the towns and villages and on country roads in virtually every part of the municipality.

G. Brese, Editor Edmonton Moravian Church Ladies Aid Organization Comes to a Conclusion After 65 Years of Faithful Service by Wm. G. Brese and Sadie Adam P. 1 A Portion of the Bruderheim Moravian Church Diary from 1912 – 1915 and Excerpts from 1918-1919 Recorded by Rev. Charles Gutensohn P. 12 The Moravian Bell Letter from Mr. Bob Bell P. 64 FOREWARD Articles dealing with the history of the church frequently recognize and honour the service of people who have given their lives in longstanding meritorious service. In this issue we do that, with respect to Rev. Charles Gutensohn, but we also take a look at the accomplishments and activities of an outstanding organization: The Ladies' Aid of the Edmonton Moravian Church. In the annals of the history of the Moravian Church in western Canada, the conclusion of the 65 years of service by the Ladies' Aid, which took place in 2009, is worthy of commendation and recognition. The article covering their many years of faithful activity gives a glimpse of what held them together over those many years. The Rev Charles Gutensohn and his wife Edna came to Bruderheim, Alberta as a newly married couple in 1912. He was a recent seminary graduate, 27 years old. Neither of them could have imagined that their pastoral service would span the next 28 years, all of it in the Canadian District.
