The Alberta Utilities Commission expects to receive an application from ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. to approve the existing current and valid natural gas distribution franchise agreement with the Town of Slave Lake. This application for approval is required due to changes made by the Utilities Affordability Statutes Amendment Act, 2024, to various statutes governing franchise agreements.
The current franchise agreement, which took effect in April of 2019, grants ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. the exclusive right to deliver natural gas to the residents of Town of Slave Lake for approximately 20 years.
No changes to the franchise agreement or to the franchise fee rate rider percentage are being made as part of this application.
You may send your concerns about, objections to, or support for the application in writing to the Town of Slave Lake or to ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd. on or before December 24, 2024, at:
Municipality, Jeff Simpson, PO Box 1030 / 10 Main St, phone: 780-849-8000; email: Feedback@slavelake.ca
ATCO Gas and Pipelines Ltd., Attn: Franchise Agreement Coordinator, 5302 Forand Street S.W. Calgary, Alberta, T3E 8B4, phone: 310-5678 or 1-888-511-7550; email: franchisecoordinatorgas@atco.com
