Prescribed Petroleum Products Prices

Order dated July 28, 2016made by the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board

pursuant to Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Actand Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations

Order M07594In the matter of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act

- and -

In the matter of prescribing prices for petroleum productspursuant to Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act andSections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations

Before: Kulvinder S. Dhillon, P. Eng., Member

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



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

And whereas the Board revised the retail margin and transportation allowance effective January 6, 2012,in its decision, 2011 NSUARB 181, issued on November 23, 2011;

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

And whereas the average of the average of the daily high and low reported product prices (in Canadiancents) for the week ended July 27, 2016, are:

Grade 1 Regular gasoline 46.4¢ per litreUltra-low-sulfur diesel oil 45.5¢ per litre

Now therefore the Board prescribes the benchmark prices for petroleum products to be:

Gasoline:Grade 1 46.4¢ per litreGrade 2 49.4¢ per litreGrade 3 52.4¢ per litre

Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 45.5¢ per litre

And now therefore the Board has determined, based on historical data regarding price changes and toachieve revenue neutrality, it is appropriate to apply, and the Board so orders, forward averaging corrections of:

Gasoline: minus 1.2¢ per litreUltra-low-sulfur diesel oil: minus 1.0¢ per litre

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., July 29, 2016.

Dated at Halifax, Nova Scotia, this 28th day of July, 2016.

Prescribed Petroleum Products Prices

Order dated August 4, 2016made by the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board

pursuant to Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Actand Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations

Order M07600In the matter of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act

- and -

In the matter of prescribing prices for petroleum productspursuant to Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act andSections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations

Before: Peter W. Gurnham, Q.C., Chair

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

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

And whereas the Board revised the retail margin and transportation allowance effective January 6, 2012, in itsdecision, 2011 NSUARB 181, issued on November 23, 2011;

And whereas the Board revised the wholesale margin effective January 4, 2013, in its decision, 2012 NSUARB213, issued on December 12, 2012;

And whereas the average of the average of the daily high and low reported product prices (in Canadian cents)for the week ended August 3, 2016, are:

Grade 1 Regular gasoline 45.3¢ per litreUltra-low-sulfur diesel oil 43.1¢ per litre

Now therefore the Board prescribes the benchmark prices for petroleum products to be:

Gasoline:Grade 1 45.3¢ per litreGrade 2 48.3¢ per litreGrade 3 51.3¢ per litre

Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 43.1¢ per litre

And now therefore the Board has determined, based on historical data regarding price changes and to achieverevenue neutrality, it is appropriate to apply, and the Board so orders, forward averaging corrections of:

Gasoline: minus 0.5¢ per litreUltra-low-sulfur diesel oil: minus 1.1¢ per litre

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., August 5, 2016.



Dated at Halifax, Nova Scotia, this 4th day of August, 2016.
