Filing Manual Revisions - Guide P - Tolls and Tariffs (Part IV of NEB Act) and Guide BB - Financial Surveillance Reports (Toll Information Regulations)

As part of its efforts to continuously review and improve its Guidance, the National Energy Board (Board or NEB) issued a letter, dated 17 November 2009 [Filing A23677], to update guidance and better clarify the Board's financial regulation of all pipeline companies under the jurisdiction of the NEB Act. The applicable sections of the Board's Filing Manual, Guide P - Tolls and Tariffs (Part IV of NEB Act) and Guide BB - Financial Surveillance Reports (Toll Information Regulations), have been revised to reflect this guidance.

Guide P

Information has been added to the "Additional Information" text box of Guide P regarding the distinction between Group 1 and Group 2 companies and the addition of two new filing requirements, P.6 and P.7. Requirement P.6 outlines the distinction between Group 1 and Group 2 companies, and sets out the requirements for Group 2 companies regarding the regulation of traffic, tolls and tariffs, accounting and financial reporting. Requirement P.7 outlines the obligations of companies around abandonment costs as set out in the Board's RH-2-2008 decision [Filing A21835].

Guide BB

Guide BB.1 has been added to Guide BB to inform Group 2 companies that, while they are exempted from the Toll Information Regulations, they are still subject to audits of records by the Board.
