Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act and Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations Before: Roberta J. Clarke, Q.C., Member Order

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 prices in its decision, 2006 NSUARB 108, issued on October 16, 2006; And

whereas the average of the average of the daily high and low reported product prices (in Canadian cents) for the week ended November 24, 2010, are: Grade 1 Regular gasoline 61.1¢ per litre

Part II - Regulations Vol. 34, No. 26 1190 © NS Registry of Regulations. Web version. Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 62.6¢ per litre

Now therefore the Board prescribes the benchmark prices for petroleum products to be: Gasoline: Grade 1 61.1¢ per litre Grade 2 64.1¢ per litre Grade 3 67.1¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 62.6¢ per litre And

whereas a winter blending adjustment of plus 1.7¢ 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

Section 14 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Act and Sections 16 to 19 of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulations Before: Murray E. Doehler, CA, P. Eng., Member Order

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 prices in its decision, 2006 NSUARB 108, issued on October 16, 2006; And

whereas the average of the average of the daily high and low reported product prices (in Canadian cents) for the week ended December 1, 2010, are: Grade 1 Regular gasoline 62.6¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 64.5¢ per litre

Now therefore the Board prescribes the benchmark prices for petroleum products to be: Gasoline: Grade 1 62.6¢ per litre Grade 2 65.6¢ per litre Grade 3 68.6¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil 64.5¢ 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: plus 1.0¢ per litre Ultra-low-sulfur diesel oil: plus 0.6¢ per litre And

whereas a winter blending adjustment of plus 2.5¢ 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., December 3, 2010. Dated at Halifax, Nova Scotia, this 2nd day of December, 2010. Sgd: Mora Stevens Clerk of the Board
