ITEM 1.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED TRANSACTION

Applicant  Kinder Morgan, Inc. ("Kinder Morgan"), a Kansas corporation, and 0731297 B.C. Ltd., a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of British Columbia and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Kinder Morgan ("Merger Sub"), have entered into a Combination Agreement with Terasen Inc. ("Terasen"), a corporation organized under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, pursuant to which Kinder Morgan, through Merger Sub, will acquire the stock of Terasen in exchange for, at the election of Terasen shareholders, for each Terasen share held, either (i) C$35.75 in cash, (ii) 0.3331 shares of Kinder Morgan common stock, or (iii) C$23.25 in cash plus 0.1165 shares of Kinder Morgan common stock (the "Acquisition").  Each such election is potentially subject to proration.  Kinder Morgan hereby applies under Section 3(b) of the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, a s amended ("1935 Act"), for an order exempting from all provisions of the 1935 Act certain foreign companies and intermediate companies that will be acquired by Kinder Morgan in conjunction with the Acquisition.

Terasen has five subsidiaries that are public-utility companies operating exclusively outside the United States.  All are Canadian utilities which, prior to and after the Acquisition, serve no customers in the United States and derive no income, directly or indirectly, from sources within the United States.  Terasen's Canadian utility subsidiaries ("Canadian Utilities") are as follows:

1.

Terasen Gas Inc. ("Terasen Gas"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of  Terasen, is engaged in the transportation and storage of natural gas and the distribution of natural gas to residential, commercial and industrial customers in British Columbia;

2.

Terasen Gas (Vancouver Island) Inc. ("TGSI"), a wholly-owned, direct subsidiary of Terasen, is engaged in the transportation of natural gas and the distribution of natural gas to residential, commercial, and industrial customers on Vancouver Island and along the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia;

3.

Terasen Gas (Squamish) Inc. ("Squamish Gas"), a wholly-owned, direct subsidiary of Terasen Gas, is engaged in the transportation of natural gas and the distribution of natural gas to residential, commercial, and industrial customers in the Squamish district of British Columbia;

4.

Terasen Gas (Whistler) Inc., a wholly-owned, direct subsidiary of Terasen, is engaged in the distribution of piped propane gas to residential and commercial customers to the Resort Municipality of Whistler, British Columbia; and

5.

Terasen Multi Utility Services Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Terasen, and certain of its subsidiaries, are engaged in the distribution of gas, propane and electricity in British Columbia.

-2-

Terasen owns, either directly or through other wholly-owned subsidiaries, 100% of the shares of each of the Canadian Utilities.  Upon and after the effective date of the Acquisition, Kinder Morgan may, for tax, legal, regulatory or administrative reasons, restructure the corporate organization described above.

APPLICANT'S STATEMENTS IN SUPPORT OF APPLICATION

In support hereof, the Applicant states:

(1)

Kinder Morgan is a publicly held corporation organized under Kansas law with its principal offices located at 500 Dallas Street, Suite 1000, Houston, Texas 77002.  Kinder Morgan engages directly and indirectly in the sale and distribution of gas to retail customers, among other non-public utility operations.  Neither Kinder Morgan nor any corporation owned and controlled by Kinder Morgan is a "holding company" or a "subsidiary company" of a holding company (in each case, other than in respect of (A) the Canadian Utilities and (B) Gas Natural del Noroestre, S.A. de C.V.) as defined in the 1935 Act.

(2)

Each of the Canadian Utilities is organized under the laws of the Province of British Columbia.

(3)

The Canadian Utilities derive no income, either directly or indirectly, from sources within the United States.  The Canadian Utilities are not qualified to do business in any state of the United States, nor is any Canadian Utility a public-utility company operating in the United States.  The Canadian Utilities have no plan to derive any income from United States operations, from any company qualified to do business in any state of the United States, or from any public-utility company operating in the United States.

(4)

Section 3(b) of the 1935 Act provides that the Commission "shall exempt any subsidiary company, as such, from any provision or provisions of the 1935 Act, the application of which to such subsidiary company the Commission funds is not necessary in the public interest or for the protection of investors, if such subsidiary company derives no material part of its income, directly or indirectly, from sources within the United States, and neither it nor any of its subsidiary companies is a public-utility company operating in the United States."

(5)

No Canadian Utility is a public-utility company operating in the United States.  The proposed investment will not affect the Canadian Utilities' status as public-utility companies subject to regulation by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Canadian Utilities are organized and operate.  The Canadian Utilities do not derive any income from United States operations or sources within the United States.  As explained below, regulation of the Canadian Utilities under the 1935 Act is not necessary in the public interest, or for the protection of investors or consumers.  Therefore, as in the following cases, each of the Canadian Utilities satisfies the standards of section 3(b) and should be accorded an unqualified exemption, as a subsidiary company, from all provisions of the 1935 Act.  See Public Service Company of Colorado, HCAR No. 26671 (Feb. 19, 1997) ("PSC Colorado"); UtiliCorp United, In c., HCAR No. 26353 (Aug. 7, 1995) ("UtiliCorp 1995"); UtiliCorp United, Inc., HCAR No. 26918 (Sept. 28, 1998) ("UtiliCorp 1998"); Duke Energy, Inc., HCAR No. 27496 (March 8, 2002) ("Duke Energy").

-3-

(6)

Although the Canadian Utilities would satisfy the requirements under section 33(a)(3) of the 1935 Act and become a "foreign utility company" ("FUCO") as defined therein upon the filing of a notice on Form U-57, the capitalization limits established by section 33(f) of the 1935 Act would restrict the ability of Kinder Morgan to finance the acquisition of the Canadian Utilities as FUCOs.  The Commission has previously recognized that section 3(b) provides an alternative route for foreign acquisitions in identical circumstances. See PSC Colorado; UtiliCorp 1995; UtiliCorp 1998. (These opinions were issued after October 24, 1992, the date upon which section 33 was added to the 1935 Act.)

(7)

The legislative history of the Energy Policy Act of 1992, through which section 33 became law, makes clear that section 33 was to be read in a permissive-not a restrictive-manner.  Senator Donald Reigle, the Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee and a primary Senate proponent of the section 33 legislation, stated that "[w]hile section 33 is important, we must remember that international activities by utilities is permitted by current law. Specifically, under current law, the Securities and Exchange Commission has the authority to permit, on a case-by-case basis, utility functions outside the United States...The provisions of section 33 supplement these foreign options for utility operations and do not in any way limit the ability to pursue the SEC approval under current law...We must remember that the purpose of section 33 is to facilitate foreign investment, not burden it." Congressional Record, 102^nd Cong ., 8, 1992, 138 Cong. Rec. S. 17625 (emphasis supplied). See also Energy Policy Act of 1992, H.R. Conf. Report No. 102-1018 at 388, 1992 U.S.C.C.A.N. 2472, 2479 (1992); Entergy Corp., HCAR No. 25706 (Dec. 14, 1992).

(8)

Kinder Morgan will not seek recovery through higher rates to its domestic regulated utility customers for any possible loss it might sustain by reason of the proposed investment in the Canadian Utilities or for any inadequate returns on that investment.  Kinder Morgan's domestic utility customers will not be put at risk of any adverse financial effects resulting from the operations of the Canadian Utilities, nor will the ability of the Wyoming Public Service Commission, the Colorado Public Utilities Commission or the Nebraska Public Service Commission, which have regulatory jurisdiction over Kinder Morgan's retail rates, to protect the interests of consumers in their respective states be adversely affected.

(9)

Kinder Morgan has submitted a letter dated August 16, 2005 to the Wyoming Public Service Commission ("WPSC"), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 3, and a letter dated August 25, 2005 to the Public Utilities Commission of Colorado ("PUCC"), advising that Kinder Morgan would comply with its existing shelf registration authorization from the PUCC and the existing blanket exemption from the WPSC and, in each case, confirming that no further regulatory approvals or actions would be requested from or required by either the PUCC or the WSPC with respect to the Acquisition and the issuance of Kinder Morgan stock in connection with the Acquisition.  Kinder Morgan received an advisory letter dated September 20, 2005 from the PUCC, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4, advising of no further regulatory approval being required.  Although Kinder Morgan is also subject to the jurisdiction of the Nebraska Public Service Commission ("NPSC"), the NPSC does not have regulatory jurisdiction over securities issuance by Kinder Morgan and therefore no filings, reporting

-4-

requirements or authorizations to or from the NPSC are required with respect to the Acquisition and the issuance of Kinder Morgan stock in connection with the Acquisition.  

(10)

The State Commissions have previously issued letters to the Commission with regard to Kinder Morgan, certifying that each Commission "has the authority and resources to protect ratepayers of [Kinder Morgan] subject to its jurisdiction" and "intends to exercise its authority."¹  The Commission has relied on similar certifications in granting exemptions under section 3(b) of the 1935 Act.  See, e.g., PSC Colorado.

(11)

Since Kinder Morgan is a publicly-traded company subject to the continuous disclosure requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, regulation under the federal securities laws offers significant additional protections for the interest of investors.  Hence, regulation of the Canadian Utilities as subsidiaries of a holding company is not necessary for either the public interest or for the protection of investors.

(12)

Kinder Morgan will maintain separate books of account for the Canadian Utilities and any of its subsidiaries that may control the Canadian Utilities and will commit to provide access to those books and records to each state commission with retail rate jurisdiction to the extent not already required under state law.

(13)

On the basis of the facts set forth in this Application/Declaration, the Commission should grant the Canadian Utilities the exemption without qualification provided for by 3(b) of the 1935 Act.

(14)

If the Canadian Utilities are exempt without qualification under Section 3(b) of the 1935 Act, then Kinder Morgan and its intermediate subsidiaries would be entitled to the exemption provided for by Rule 10 of the 1935 Act.  Kinder Morgan and its subsidiary companies that are parent entities of the Canadian Utilities will rely upon Rule 10(a)(1) to provide an exemption insofar as each is a holding company.  Kinder Morgan and each subsidiary company will rely upon Rule 11(b)(1) to provide an exemption from the approval requirements of sections 9(a)(2) and 10 to which they would otherwise be  subject.

(15)

In addition, if the Canadian Utilities and Kinder Morgan's intermediate subsidiaries are exempt under Section 3(b) of the 1935 Act, then Kinder Morgan would be entitled under Rule 11(b)(1) to an exemption from Section 9(a)(2) of the Act.

(16)

Due to the pending repeal of the 1935 Act, effective prior to 120 days following the close of Kinder Morgan's fiscal year, Kinder Morgan does not anticipate filing an annual report on Form U-33-S with respect to its current fiscal year.

The Applicant asserts that the Canadian Utilities are entitled to the exemption without qualification provided for by Section 3(b) of the 1935 Act, and accordingly that Kinder Morgan and its intermediate subsidiaries are entitled to the exemption from all obligations as a holding company provided for by Rule 10(a)(1) of the 1935 Act.

grant the request for waiver of the tariff adoption notice requirement under 3 AAC 48.400.  We close this docket.

Background

Kinder Morgan, Inc. filed its Application on August 25, 2005.  We publicly noticed the Application on September 2, 2005, and received no comments.

Discussion

Kinder Morgan, Inc. requested authorization to acquire, through its direct wholly-owned subsidiary 0731297 B.C. Ltd., a British Corporation, 100 percent of the common shares of Terasen Inc.   Terasen, Inc. is the indirect owner through Inland Pacific Resources Inc. of a 50 percent interest in FSW.  Three of the seven board members of FSW are elected by Terasen, Inc.

Kinder Morgan, Inc. filed its application pursuant to AS 42.05.281 and APUC Form X-107.³  We therefore apply the standards set by precedent and treat the proposed transaction as a form of transfer of certificate under AS 42.05.281.⁴  In evaluating applications to transfer a certificate we must determine whether the applicant is fit, willing, and able to provide the proposed service under the criteria for certification set forth in AS 42.05, and whether the proposed transfer is affirmatively consistent with the public interest.

Is Kinder Morgan, Inc. Fit, Willing, and Able

According to the Application, Kinder Morgan, Inc. has significant experience in serving regulated utility consumers. With approximately 243,000 residential, commercial and industrial customers in Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming and

³APUC Form X-107 is the form prescribed by the Commission for applications for authorization to acquire a controlling interest in a regulated public utility.

⁴AS 42.05.281 states: A certificate may not be sold or leased, rented, transferred or inherited without the prior approval of the commission.

U-05-79(1) – (11/8/05)

Hermosillo, Mexico, Kinder Morgan, Inc. has experience in dealing with regulated consumers and regulators.  Kinder Morgan, Inc. also asserts it is one of the largest energy transportation and storage companies in the United States.  It operates, either for itself or on behalf of Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P.,⁵ over 35,000 miles of natural gas and petroleum products pipelines.  The combined enterprise value of Kinder Morgan, Inc. and Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P. is almost 30 billion dollars.  Kinder Morgan, Inc.’s 2004 net income was approximately 522 million and the 2003 net income was approximately 382 million.  Kinder Morgan Inc.’s businesses are conducted through the following business segments:

· Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America and certain affiliates.  A major interstate natural gas pipeline system with approximately 9,900 miles of pipelines, consisting primarily of four major interconnected natural gas transmission pipelines terminating in the Chicago, Illinois metropolitan area, and associated storage facilities;

· Retail Natural Gas Distribution.  The regulated sale and distribution of natural gas to approximately 243,000 residential, commercial and industrial customers in Colorado, Nebraska and Wyoming (including a small distribution system in Hermosillo, Mexico); and

· Power Generation.  The operation and, in previous periods, development and construction of natural gas-fired electric generation facilities.⁶

______________________________

⁵Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P., is the largest publicly traded pipeline limited partnership in the United States in terms of market capitalization and the owner and operator of the largest independent refined petroleum products pipeline system in the United States in terms of volumes delivered.  Application at 11-12.

⁶Application at 11.

U-05-79(1) – (11/8/05)

Page 3 of 6

Kinder Morgan Inc.’s experience as a natural gas pipeline and gas distribution utility reflects Kinder Morgan Inc.’s understanding of a broad range of business operations and regulatory issues.  Kinder Morgan Inc. also demonstrated it possesses the technical and managerial expertise and experience to manage and operate public utility and pipeline systems. We find that Kinder Morgan, Inc. is fit, willing, and able to provide water and sewer services through FSW’s regulated public utilities GHU and CUC.

Is the Transfer in the Public Interest

Kinder Morgan Inc. stated that the acquisition of Terasen, Inc. will not result in any discernable or detrimental impact on the customers receiving services in Fairbanks and allows opportunities for cross-pollination of best practices among related companies. Terasen, Inc.’s percentage interest in FSW and number of seats on FSW’s board of directors will not change as a result of the transaction.  Terasen, Inc. will continue to indirectly hold 50 percent of the stock in FSW and three of the seven FSW board seats.  Kinder Morgan Inc.’s acquisition of an indirect fifty percent of FSW will not involve a change in the name or the day-to-day management of the four certificated utilities owned by FSW.  Following Kinder Morgan, Inc.’s acquisition, the four certificated utilities will continue to offer the same services they currently offer with no ch ange in the rates, terms or conditions of service.

Kinder Morgan, Inc. also asserted that the combined organization will be a strong financial entity with solid access to capital markets and geographic and product/service diversity.  Kinder Morgan, Inc. stated it is expected to remain a strong company with investment grade bond ratings.  Consumer interests are protected by the continued association of the certificated utilities with a strong, stable and diverse parent company.

U-05-79(1) – (11/8/05)

We expect the transfer to expand FSW’s available resources and be advantageous to GHU’s and CUC’s customers.  We find the transfer in the public interest and approve Kinder Morgan, Inc.’s application for authority to acquire an indirect 50 percent interest in FSW.

Request for Waiver of 3 AAC 48.400

The applicant⁷ requests that we waive the tariff adoption notice requirement under 3 AAC 48.400.  In support of its request, the applicant asserted that if we approve the application neither the names of the public utilities authorized to provide service in Alaska, or the name of their parent corporation will change.  We grant the applicant’s request for waiver of the tariff adoption notice requirement under 3 AAC 48.400.

This order constitutes the final decision in this case.  This decision may be appealed within thirty days of the date of this order in accordance with AS 22.10.020(d) and the Alaska Rules of Court, Rule of Appellate Procedure (Ak. R. App. P.) 602(a)(2).  In addition to the appellate rights afforded by AS 22.10.020(d), a party has the right to file a petition for reconsideration as permitted by 3 AAC 48.105.  If such a petition is filed, the time period for filing an appeal is then calculated under Ak. R. App. P. 602(a)(2).

No substantive or procedural issues remain in this proceeding, and there are no allocable costs under AS 42.05.651 and 3 AAC 48.157.  Therefore, we close this docket.

______________________________

⁷The Application at 18 states “IPRI and FSW request a waiver of the tariff adoption notice . . . .”  We believe the use of IPRI and FSW is an error.  We construe the applicant to be Kinder Morgan, Inc.

INTRODUCTION

1.1

The Application

On August 17, 2005, Kinder Morgan, Inc. (“KMI” or “Kinder Morgan”) and 0731297 B.C.  Ltd. (“Subco”) (collectively the “Kinder Morgan Companies”) applied to the British Columbia Utilities Commission (the “Commission” or the “BCUC”) pursuant to Section 54 of the Utilities Commission Act (the “Act” or the “UCA”) for approval of the acquisition by the Kinder Morgan Companies of the common shares of Terasen Inc. (“Terasen”) (Exhibit B-1). The acquisition of the shares of Terasen (“the Transaction”) will cause KMI to have indirect control of Terasen Gas Inc. (“TGI”), Terasen Gas (Vancouver Island) Inc. (“TGVI”), Terasen Gas (Squamish) Inc. (“TGS”), Terasen Gas (Whistler) Inc. (“TGW”), and Terasen Multi-Utilities Services Inc. (“TMUS”). Each of TGI, TGVI, TGW and TMUS are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Terasen.  TGI owns all of the outstanding shares of TGS and TGS is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Terasen.  Each of TGI, TGVI, TGS, TGW and TMUS (collectively, the “Terasen Utilities”) are public utilities regulated by the Commission.  Terasen also owns all of the outstanding shares of Terasen Pipelines (Trans Mountain) Inc. (“TM”).  TM is not regulated by the BCUC, but rather by the National Energy Board.  TM owns all of the outstanding shares of Terasen Pipelines (Jet Fuel) Inc. (“TPJF”). While the tolls of TPJF are regulated by the BCUC, TPJF is not a “public utility” as that term is defined in the UCA and the provisions of Section 54 of the UCA are not applicable to TPJF.

1.2

Corporate Background

1.2.1   Kinder Morgan, Inc.

KMI is a U.S. energy storage and transportation company. KMI operates either for itself or on behalf of Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P. (“KMP”), over 30,000 miles of natural gas and petroleum products pipelines.  KMI’s businesses are conducted through the following business segments:

·

An interstate natural gas pipeline system covering Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana, Missouri, Arkansas, Nebraska and Texas;

·

Retail natural gas distribution systems in Colorado, Nebraska and Wyoming (as well as a small
distribution system in Hermosillo, Mexico); and

·

Power generation facilities in Michigan and Colorado.

1

2

KMI owns the general partner of, and has a significant limited partner interest in, KMP, a publicly traded pipeline limited partnership in the U.S. KMP’s common units are listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol “KMP.”  KMP owns and/or operates a diverse group of assets used in the transportation, storage and processing of energy products throughout the U.S, including product pipelines (gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel and natural gas liquids); natural gas pipelines and storage facilities; CO2 production and transportation; oil fields and a crude oil pipeline system; and liquid and bulk terminal facilities and rail transloading and materials handling facilities.

KMI also owns, directly or indirectly, all of the voting stock of Kinder Morgan Management, LLC (“KMR”).  KMR’s assets consist of a small amount of working capital and its limited partner interest in KMP.

KMP owns a 49.8 percent undivided joint venture co-ownership interest in the Cochin Pipeline System (“CPS”).  The CPS is operated in Canada under the name Cochin Pipe Lines, Ltd. and in the U.S. under the name Dome Pipeline Corporation. The remaining 50.2 percent interest in CPS is indirectly owned by BP Canada, which in turn is ultimately controlled by BP p.l.c.  By the terms of the joint venture, BP Canada is the operator of CPS.  With the exception of this interest in the CPS, KMI and KMP do not own or control any assets or businesses in Canada.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, KMI reported the following consolidated financial results:

	(US$ million)
Total Assets	$10,117
Operating Revenues	$1,165
Operating Income	$398
Net Income	$522 (Note1)

(Note 1) Net Income is greater than Operating Income because
KMI’s interest in KMP is reflected as an equity investment on
KMI’s income statement below the operation income line.

As at July 22, 2005 KMI had approximately 122.5 million Common Shares outstanding (excluding shares held in treasury).  The common shares of KMI are listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “KMI”. KMI’s executive offices are located in Houston, Texas.  Further information respecting KMI is contained in Schedules 2 through 4 of Exhibit B-1.

1.2.2

Terasen and the Terasen Utilities

Formerly known as BC Gas Inc.  prior to a name change in 2003, Terasen is a non-regulated holding company created in 1993 to provide energy transportation and utility infrastructure management services.  Terasen does not generate any taxable income (Exhibit B-9, Response to MEMPR IR No. 1, p. 13).

Terasen has two base businesses of natural gas distribution and petroleum transportation, and is also involved in water and utility services.  The principal business segments of Terasen are:

(a)

Gas Distribution: The natural gas distribution subsidiaries of Terasen (TGI, TGVI, and TGS) distribute natural gas throughout most of those parts of B.C.  that have natural gas service. Propane is also distributed in Revelstoke (owned and operated by TGI) and Whistler, B.C. (owned and operated by TGW).

(b)

Petroleum Transportation: Terasen is engaged in the petroleum transportation business through its subsidiary TM and the subsidiaries and affiliates of TM.  TM operates four pipeline systems.  The Trans Mountain system transports crude oil and refined petroleum products from Edmonton to Burnaby and transports crude oil to several refineries in Washington State.  The Corridor system is a dual pipeline system that transports diluted bitumen and diluent between the Muskeg River mine near Fort McMurray and the upgrader of Shell Oil north of Edmonton.  TM also owns a one third interest in the Express Pipeline System and the Platte Pipeline system which transport crude oil from Hardisty, Alberta to the Rocky Mountain region of the United States and on to Wood River, Illinois.  Terasen Pipelines also operates the jet fuel pipeline to the Vancouver International Airport that is owned by TPJF.

(c)

Water and Utility Services: Terasen’s water and utility services operations include Terasen Waterworks (Supply) Inc., Terasen Water Inc., Terasen Utility Services Inc., Terasen Multi-Utility Services Inc. (or “TMUS”), Thornmark Utilities Corporation and Thornmark Waste Management Corporation in Alberta, Terasen’s 50 percent interest in Fairbanks Sewer and Water Inc.  in Alaska, and Terasen’s 30 percent interest in CustomerWorks LP. Terasen Waterworks (Supply) Inc. is a wholesale distributor of pipes, fittings, valves, hydrants and other water and wastewater infrastructure products in Western Canada.  Terasen Water Inc. designs and builds water and wastewater treatment systems for municipal and industrial applications. TMUS provides outsourced utility services including measurement services and water treatment and wastewater treatment system services.  TMUS owns and operates the Panorama water utility that is regulated by the Comptroller of Water Rights pursuant to the British Columbia Water Utility Act. CustomerWorks LP provides billing and customer care services to utilities, municipalities and retail

4

energy companies.  CustomerWorks provides services to TGI and will be providing services to TGVI.

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004, Terasen reported the following consolidated financial results:

	(Cdn $ million)
Total Assets	$4,971
Revenues	$1,957
Operating Income	$377
Net Earnings	$156

On December 31, 2004 Terasen had approximately 105.2 million common shares outstanding (excluding approximately 9.2 million shares that are outstanding and held by Trans Mountain Holdings Ltd.).  Terasen’s common shares are listed for trading on the Toronto Stock Exchange under the symbol “TER”.

Terasen directly controls TGI, TGVI, TGW, and TMUS and indirectly controls TGS, all of which are public utilities regulated by the Commission.  TMUS operations include activities that are subject to BCUC regulation as well as non-regulated activities. The regulated activities of TMUS relate to the sale and distribution of natural gas, propane, and electricity.  Its non-BCUC regulated activities are associated with property management, waste water and water treatment.

TGI is the largest natural gas distributor in British Columbia.  TGI [formerly 74280 B.C.  Ltd. and later known as BC Gas Inc.] was originally a shelf company created by British Columbia Hydro and Power Authority (“BC Hydro”) as a vehicle for the sale of its Lower Mainland natural gas assets.  In 1988, TGI was sold to Inland Natural Gas Co. Ltd. (“Inland”), a private company operating in the interior of B.C.  On or about 1990, Inland, Columbia Natural Gas Co.  Ltd. and Fort Nelson Natural Gas Co.  Ltd. were amalgamated with TGI, which was then acquired by Terasen in 1993 (Exhibit B-9, Response to MEMPR IR No. 1, p. 10).  At the time of the sale of TGI, the government imposed restrictions on the new company.  Specifically, it limited the number of directors who could live outside the province, the percentage of shares that could be owned by one entity (10 percent), the percentage of shares that could be owned by foreigners (20 percent) and the location of the company headquarters. These restrictions were removed in 2003 with Bill 85, the BC Hydro Public Power Legacy and Heritage Act, Section 6.

TGI owns and operates approximately 20,800 kilometres of natural gas transmission pipelines and distribution mains serving, as of December 31, 2004, approximately 790,000 residential, commercial and industrial customers

5

in more than 100 communities throughout British Columbia.  This includes Revelstoke where TGI operates a propane distribution system serving approximately 1,500 customers.  TGI’s rates and terms of service are regulated by the BCUC.  TGI has approximately 1,100 employees, with approximately 600 employees located at TGI’s operating centre in Surrey and the others located in centres throughout the TGI service area.  TGI accounts for 64 percent of Terasen’s consolidated assets, 68 percent of its consolidated revenues, 61 percent of its consolidated operating income, and 46 percent of its consolidated net earnings (Exhibit B-1, p. 10).

TGVI owns and operates an integrated natural gas pipeline and distribution system that provides service to approximately 85,000 residential, commercial and industrial customers on the Sunshine Coast and Vancouver Island. TGVI, formerly Centra Gas British Columbia Inc., was acquired by Terasen from Westcoast Energy Inc.  in 2002 (Exhibit B-9, Response to MEMPR IR No. 1, p. 10).

TGVI provides service through 615 km of high-pressure transmission pipeline, including three compressor stations, and approximately 3,250 km of distribution mains.  TGVI’s largest customers are the Vancouver Island Gas Joint Venture representing seven large pulp and paper mills and BC Hydro serving the Island Cogeneration Project near Campbell River.  TGVI’s transmission and distribution systems were originally constructed and operated with financial support provided by the provincial and federal governments.  In 1995, the financial support arrangements were restructured.  TGVI, the Government of British Columbia and Terasen are parties to the Vancouver Island Natural Gas Pipeline Agreement (“VINGPA”).  Under the VINGPA, Terasen has agreed to cover up to $120 million of revenue deficiencies incurred by TGVI.  The rates of TGVI were set by formula until D ecember 31, 2002 and since then have been set by the Commission.  The rates set by the Commission have enabled the balance of the accumulated revenue deficiencies of TGVI to decrease.  As at December 31, 2004, the principal amount of the accumulated revenue deficiencies of TGVI was approximately $61 million.  The Transaction has no effect on the VINGPA and it will continue to apply to Terasen and TGVI on the same basis as it has prior to the Transaction.

TGS owns and operates the natural gas distribution system in Squamish.  TGS has been owned by Inland (now Terasen) since 1985 and is now a subsidiary of TGI (Exhibit B-9, Response to MEMPR IR No. , p. 10).  TGS services approximately 2,900 residential, commercial and industrial customers.  The rates of TGS are set by formula pursuant to the Squamish Rate Stabilization Agreement between the Province and TGS (the “Squamish RSA”). Natural gas is transported to TGS on the high-pressure pipeline of TGVI pursuant to a Transportation Service Agreement (“TSA”) between TGVI and TGS.  The tolls paid by TGS for transportation service on the TGVI pipeline are calculated under a formula set out in that TSA.

TGW operates a propane storage and distribution system in the Resort Municipality of Whistler (“RMOW”).  The

6

system serves approximately 2,300 residential and commercial customers within the resort community.  TGW, formerly Centra Gas Whistler Inc, was acquired by Terasen from Westcoast Energy Inc. in 2002 (Exhibit B-9, Response to MEMPR IR No. 1, p. 10).

TMUS provides propane, natural gas, water and electricity utility delivery and wastewater services to various communities within British Columbia.  As of December 31, 2004, TMUS owned and operated systems in three resort communities (Sun Rivers, Sonoma Pines and Panorama Mountain Village) providing service to approximately 640 customers.  The rates and terms of service for propane, natural gas and electricity are regulated by the BCUC.

Terasen or its affiliates provide various services to the Terasen Utilities under Service Agreements, which have been approved by the BCUC.  These include the following:

(a)  Corporate Services Contract between Terasen and TGI.;

(b)  Shared Services Agreement between TGI and TGVI;

(c)  Specified Committed Services between TGI. andTGS; and  

(d)  Shared Services Allocation between TGVI and TGW.

Further details regarding these Service Agreements are provided in the Application (Exhibit B-1, pp. 12-15).  The Transaction will not affect existing Service Agreements, for the remaining term of those agreements.  Future agreements will be subject to review by the BCUC.

1.3

Procedural Orders and Hearing Process

On August 19, 2005, the Commission issued Order No. G-76-05 with an accompanying Notice of Procedural Conference and Regulatory Agenda and Timetable (Exhibit A-1).  As outlined in Order No. G-76-05, the Commission issued an Information Request to KMI on August 26, 2005 (Exhibit A-2).  The KMI Response to the Commission’s Information Request was received September 1, 2005 (Exhibit B-4).  Registered Intervenors were required to file their Information Requests to KMI by September 12, 2005.  KMI issued responses to these Information Requests by September 19, 2005.

Order No. G-76-05 established a Procedural Conference for September 9, 2005.  The Procedural Conference was held to address matters such as whether the review should proceed by way of an oral or written public hearing, or some other process; steps and timetable associated with the regulatory review process; and other matters that would assist the Commission to efficiently review the Application.   

7

In its responses to Commission Information Request No. 1 (Exhibit B-4), KMI provided evidence related to its ability to finance the acquisition of the shares of Terasen.  The KMI response included a document (Exhibit B-5) filed on a confidential basis that contained two confidential Bank commitment letters provided to KMI.  On September 8, 2005, the Commission issued a letter (Exhibit A-3) seeking submissions during the Procedural Conference regarding its use of Exhibit B-5 on a confidential basis.  However, by letter dated September 13, 2005 (Exhibit B-7), KMI waived the confidentiality of the documents referred to in Exhibit A-3, eliminating the need for the Commission Panel to comment on the confidentiality issues raised in Exhibit A-3.

During the Procedural Conference, Intervenors such as Mr. Corky Evans, MLA for Nelson Creston and the Canadian Action Party were in support of a regulatory process that provided opportunities for oral submissions and cross-examination (T1: 46, 49) while other Intervenors, such as the Lower Mainland Large Gas Users Association (“LMLGUA”), Commercial Energy Consumers Association of BC (“CEC”) and the BC Old Age Pensioners et al. (“BCOAPO”), did not take a position regarding whether or not an oral or written process should be established (T1: 26, 30). However, most Intervenors considered the October 18, 2005 timeline for a Commission Decision, as recommended by KMI, to be insufficient to review the Application.  KMI argued that an oral process was not necessary because there is no significant dispute over the facts of the Application (T1: 65) and because the public has taken advantage of elec tronic communications to express their views to the Commission.  According to KMI, therefore, both an oral hearing and town hall meetings were not necessary (T1: 66).

On September 14, 2005, the Commission issued Order No. G-86-05 establishing a written hearing process and a revised hearing timetable (Exhibit A-4).  The Commission established October 14, 2005 as the deadline for written submissions and October 21, 2005 for responses from KMI.  The Commission Panel also established November 2, 2005 as the date for a possible oral phase of submissions, subject to whether or not the Commission Panel had any questions arising from the written submissions.  The Commission Panel indicated it would issue a final decision on or before November 10, 2005.

On October 3, 2005, the Commission also issued a letter to Registered Intervenors inviting them to include comments in their submissions regarding the issues to be considered in a determination under Section 54 of the UCA (Exhibit A-6). After reviewing all written submissions, the Commission issued a letter on October 24, 2005 advising that the Commission Panel did not have any questions arising from the written submissions, eliminating the need for an oral argument phase and closing the record for this Proceeding (Exhibit A-7).

During the Commission’s written process, 36 parties registered as Intervenors, many of whom participated in two

8

rounds of information requests to and responses from KMI, following the initial round of Commission information requests, and many of whom also filed written submissions by the established deadline of October 14, 2004. As part of the record for this Proceeding, the Commission also received more than 8,000 letters of comment from individual citizens, businesses and other organizations concerning the Transaction.  These comments are summarized in Section 3.2 of this Decision.

2.0

SUMMARY OF THE TRANSACTION

KMI, Subco, and Terasen entered into an agreement on August 1, 2005 (the “Combination Agreement”) under which Subco, a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of KMI, will acquire all of the outstanding common shares of Terasen (the “Transaction”). The terms of the Transaction are set out in the Combination Agreement attached as Schedule 1 to the Application (Exhibit B-1).

The Transaction is to be completed by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Plan of Arrangement”) pursuant to Section 288 of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “BCA(BC)”).  The effect of the Transaction is that upon its completion the Kinder Morgan Companies will have indirect control of the Terasen Utilities.  Pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement, on its effective date, all of the Terasen common shares, other than those held by KMI and its affiliates and by dissenting shareholders, will be exchanged for:

(a) Cdn $35.75 in cash,

  (b) 0.3331 of a KMI common share for each Terasen common share; or

  (c) Cdn $23.25 in cash plus 0.1165 of a KMI common share for each Terasen common share.

All elections will be subject to proration in the event that total cash elections exceed approximately 65 percent of the total consideration to be paid or total stock elections exceed approximately 35 percent.

Upon completion of the Transaction, all of the outstanding common shares of Terasen, other than Terasen common shares held by KMI and its affiliates and certain inter-corporate holdings, will be held by Subco, resulting in Terasen, and each of the Terasen Utilities, being an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of KMI.

Figure 1 summarizes the current corporate organization chart of the relevant entities for each of KMI and Terasen (together with its subsidiaries regulated by the Commission) before giving effect to the Transaction.  Figure 2 depicts the corporate organization of KMI and Terasen after giving effect to the Transaction. Following completion of the Transaction, KMI indicates that Subco will be amalgamated with Terasen Inc. and the surviving entity, which will likely adopt the Terasen name, will become a wholly owned subsidiary of KMI (Exhibit B-27, Response to Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter IR No. 2, p. 11).

PUBLIC CONSULTATION AND COMMENT

3.1

Applicant’s Consultation Process

Leading up to and after submitting its Application, Terasen and KMI conducted consultations including:

(a)

Direct contact with key stakeholders immediately following announcement of the Transaction to advise those stakeholders of the key aspects and impacts of the Transaction.

(b)

Advisories to all customers with information regarding the Transaction and advice as to how to access the information in regard to the Transaction via the TGI and KMI websites.

(c)

Posting information, including responses to questions on issues in respect of the Transaction, on the TGI and KMI websites for access by customers and stakeholders.

As part of Order No. G-76-05 (Exhibit A-1), KMI and the Terasen Utilities were also ordered to hold Public Workshops to review the Application in the Greater Vancouver area, Whistler, Victoria, Nanaimo, Kelowna, Cranbrook and Prince George during the week commencing August 29, 2005.  These workshops are outlined in Exhibit B-3.

Schedule 5 of the Application provides a summary of the stakeholder consultation activities held beginning at the date of the announcement of the Transaction up to and including August 16, 2005.  Exhibit B-6 provides an updated summary of all stakeholder consultation activities held between August 1, 2005 and September 2, 2005.   

3.2

Public Comments to the Commission

As of October 14, 2005, the deadline established by the Commission Panel for written submissions, the Commission had received more than 8,000 letters of comment concerning the Application from individuals, businesses, communities, community organizations, and associations.  About 650 letters of comment were form letters prepared by other parties.  About 30 letters of comment included petitions opposing the Transaction with a combined total of approximately 1,000 signatures.  About eight letters of comment were from municipal councils or regional districts requesting that the Commission hold public hearings in response to public concerns.  The Union of B.C. Municipalities also submitted a resolution passed without any objection at a meeting on September 30, 2005 requesting that the Commission hold public hearings throughout the province to assess the benefits or detriments of the Transaction to the commun ities of B.C.

14

Virtually all of the letters of comment oppose the Transaction.  A large number of letters express general anger over the Transaction, but offer no substantive reasons for their opposition.  Some of these letters indicate a need for more information and time to consider the Transaction, and some also request public hearings and/or a referendum on the sale.  The vast majority of letters express concern over foreign ownership in general and American ownership in particular.  Opposition to foreign ownership seems to revolve around issues such as a perceived loss of control/sovereignty over resources (energy security), reduced quality of services, increased rates, and job losses in B.C. Many letters express a general anger and distrust towards the United States, particularly over recent trade disputes involving softwood lumber and livestock, and the position of the United States government on various environm ental issues.

Some letters express specific concerns related to KMI’s environmental and safety record, and the credibility of its senior management team.  Many of these letters cite articles describing recent accidents within the Kinder Morgan Companies’ infrastructure such as pipeline ruptures, explosions, fires and spills, as well as numerous fines and ongoing investigations related to safety and environmental practices.  Concerns about the credibility of KMI highlight senior management’s past involvement with Enron, the financial structure of the company, and personal ties with the current government of the United States.   

The Commission Panel appreciates the input of so many citizens and has carefully reviewed and considered the concerns raised by the public.  The Commission Panel is cognizant of the strong public opposition towards this Transaction, as exhibited by the number and tone of letters received.  However, the Commission is also mindful that it must consider and adjudicate this Application within its statutory mandate and the relevant provisions of the UCA. The jurisdiction of the Commission with respect to this Application is discussed in Section 4 below.   

The Commission Panel notes that much of the opposition to this Transaction appears to be based on misunderstandings about the existing ownership and structure of Terasen, the structure of the natural gas market in B.C., and the authority of this Commission over public utilities operating in B.C.

A significant number of letters of comment seem to assume that Terasen is a Crown Corporation.  Terasen is in fact broadly owned by private shareholders and, while there were some restrictions initially placed on the ownership of Terasen shares by foreigners following the amalgamation of private and public assets in the late 1980’s, the Government of B.C. removed these restrictions in 2003.  KMI has advised, however, that the Transaction is subject to review under the Investment Canada Act and that the Transaction cannot be completed until the responsible federal Minister is satisfied that the investment is likely to be of net benefit to Canada (Exhibit B-28, Response to MEMPR IR No. 2, pp. 9-11).  The Transaction has received overwhelming approval by existing shareholders (Exhibit B-31).   

15

Many letters express concern about foreign ownership of B.C.’s natural gas resources.  However, the Terasen Utilities do not own natural gas resources and they are not in the business of engaging in the exploration, development or production of natural gas resources in B.C.  Rather, the Terasen Utilities own and operate transmission and distribution facilities.  The Terasen Utilities buy natural gas solely for the purposes of serving customers in B.C. and resell it at cost pursuant to BCUC regulation (Exhibit B-9, Response to MEMPR IR No. 1, p. 8). Similarly, the business philosophy of KMI and KMP is to own assets that provide transportation, storage and delivery services and it is not KMI’s or KMP’s business philosophy or plan to own natural resources.  The only natural resources which KMI or KMP owns are those that are incidental to its core business (Exhibit B-9, Response to MEMPR IR No. 1, pp. 8-9). The Transaction does not affect the ownership or use of natural gas by the Terasen Utilities or change the existing market for natural gas produced in B.C.  Exports of natural gas continue to be regulated by the National Energy Board.

Finally, this Application is not about changing the services or rates of the Terasen Utilities.  The Applicant has made various assurances that it will not attempt to recover from ratepayers any costs associated with the Transaction (e.g., Exhibit B-4, Response to Commission IR No. 1, p. 11, Exhibit B-26, Response to LMLGUA/CEC IR No. 2, p. 4), and that service levels will be maintained or enhanced (Exhibit B-34, p. 15).  While useful, the Commission Panel need not rely on these assurances since the Transaction does not in any way alter the Commission’s wide-ranging powers with respect to the regulation of rates and the services provided by the Terasen Utilities. In its deliberations, however, the Commission Panel has also considered whether or not conditions should be attached to any Decision that approves the Transaction in order to further protect the public interest.

LEGAL CONTEXT

4.1

General Authority of the BCUC

The British Columbia Utilities Commission, under the authority of the Utilities Commission Act, regulates the operations of public utilities, including the rates and other terms and conditions of service of utilities.  The regulation of rates involves approval of revenue requirements (all costs, including capital and operating expenses, as well as capital structure and returns), as well as rate structures.  Costs for services provided by public utilities must be just and reasonable.  The Commission also regulates the construction of new facilities by public utilities through its authority to grant Certificates of Public Convenience and Necessity. Among other things, the Commission also has jurisdiction to regulate the following types of business transactions:

(a)

the disposition of any public utility property other than in the ordinary course of the business of the public utility (UCA, Section 52);

(b)

the issue of any debt and equity securities by a public utility, other than debt maturing within one year of issue, and any material change in the terms and conditions of any such outstanding debt and equity securities issued by the utility (UCA, Section 50);

(c)

any consolidation, merger or amalgamation of a public utility with any other person (UCA, Section 53); and

(d)

the subsequent acquisition by any person of a reviewable interest in the public utility (UCA, Section 54).

The Commission has developed various guidelines and procedures to assist it in regulating public utilities.   

4.2

Applicable Section of the UCA to this Proceeding

TGI, TGVI, TGS, TGW and TMUS are public utilities regulated by the Commission.  TPJF is a “pipeline” and a “company pipeline” as those terms are defined in the Pipeline Act, R.S.B.C. 1996, c. 364. Pursuant to the provisions of Part 7 of the Pipeline Act the tariffs of TPJF must be filed with the BCUC and TPJF may not charge a toll unless it is specified in a tariff filed with the BCUC.  While the tolls of TPJF are regulated by the BCUC, TPJF is not a “public utility” as that term is defined in the UCA.  Terasen Inc., which is the parent company of TGI (which owns TGS), TGVI, TGW, TMUS and TM (which owns TPJF), is not a “public utility” as defined in the UCA.

17

The Application was made pursuant to Section 54 of the UCA.  Section 54 provides, in part, that:

54(7) A person must not acquire or acquire control of such numbers of any class of shares of a public utility as

(a)

in themselves, or

(b)

together with shares owned or controlled by the person and the person’s associates,

cause the person to have a reviewable interest in a public utility unless the person has obtained the Commission’s approval.

Section 54(4) of the Act states that a person has a reviewable interest in a public utility if the person owns or controls, or if the person and the person’s associates own or control, in the aggregate more than 20 percent of the voting shares outstanding of any class of shares of the utility.  Section 54(9) of the UCA provides that the Commission may give its approval under Section 54 subject to such conditions and requirements it considers necessary and desirable in the public interest, and that the Commission must not give its approval under Section 54 “… unless it [the Commission] considers that the public utility and the users of the services of the public utility will not be detrimentally affected.”

In their submissions, the LMLGUA and the CEC (Exhibit C18-5) and the Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter (Exhibit C11-9), suggest that the Transaction is reviewable under Sections 52 and 53 of the UCA which deal with “restraints on disposition [of a utility’s property]” and “consolidation, amalgamation and merger [of public utilities]”, respectively.  In making this argument, the LMLGUA/CEC rely in part on public statements made by Richard Kinder referring to “consolidation” of the KMI and Terasen businesses.  Section 52 sets out the conditions under which the Commission may approve the disposition, merger, amalgamation or consolidation of property, franchises, licenses, permits, concessions, privileges or rights (i.e., the assets) of a public utility.  Section 53 of the UCA sets out the conditions under which the Lieutenant Governor in Council (“LGIC”) may approve the consolidation, amalgamation or merger of a public utility with another person after receiving a report from the Commission.

In its final submission, the BCOAPO acknowledges that the jurisdiction of the Commission in this matter does not extend to KMI’s acquisition of Terasen but only to the indirect acquisition of the Terasen Utilities, and BCOAPO does not suggest the Application should be reviewed under any other section of the UCA (Exhibit C3-1).   

18

In its response to Intervenor Submissions, KMI suggests that Intervenors have confused the use of vernacular terms such as “consolidation” with the legal term as used in the UCA (Exhibit B-34, p. 19).  KMI maintains that the Transaction does not contemplate, and will not cause, the disposition, merger, amalgamation or consolidation of any assets of any public utility.  Rather, the “amalgamation” that may occur in this Transaction is between Subco and Terasen, neither of which are public utilities. KMI maintains that the Terasen Utilities will continue as separate corporate entities owned by their parent corporation, Terasen or TGI (in the case of TGS), and that a share purchase (as contemplated in this Transaction) does not constitute an amalgamation, merger or consolidation.

The Commission Panel agrees with KMI that the Transaction does not involve the disposition of property as contemplated by Section 52, nor the consolidation, amalgamation or merger of a utility with another person as contemplated by Section 53. The Commission Panel notes that the Terasen Utilities would continue as separate corporate entities following completion of the Transaction, and finds that the Application is appropriately brought and considered under Section 54 of the UCA as a Transaction involving a “reviewable interest” within the context of that provision.

4.3

Issues Applicable under Section 54 of the UCA

4.3.1

Previous Commission Decisions

In its Application, KMI recommends criteria for reviewing the Transaction that are drawn from other relevant decisions by the Commission.  In earlier decisions, the Commission has determined that the focus of its review of any acquisition of, or acquisition of control of, a public utility under Section 54 should be on the effect of the acquisition upon the public utility, the customers of that utility and the regulation of the public utility by the Commission in the public interest.  Specifically, in its June 30, 1987 Decision regarding the acquisition of West Kootenay Power and Light Company by Utilicorp United Ltd. (Order No. G-31-87) the Commission characterized its interpretation of the requirements of Section 54 [then Section 61] of the UCA as follows.

“The Commission interprets the provisions of Section 61 [now Section 54] of the Act as requiring that the proposed acquisition not detract from [the utility’s] ability to provide ongoing service of the quality that its customers have the right to expect and at rates which are fair to those customers and to the utility itself.  The Commission concludes that it is the intent of these sections, regardless of ownership, to preserve the authority of the Commission to regulate [the utility] effectively and in the public interest.” (Utilicorp Decision, p. 7).

19

In its more recent Decision regarding the Fortis Pacific Holdings Inc. (“Fortis”) acquisition of Aquila Networks Canada (British Columbia) Ltd. (Aquila B.C.) [previously West Kootenay Power] dated April 30, 2004 (Order No. G-39-04), the Commission also identified specific criteria to assist in determining whether the public utility and the users of the services of the public utility will be detrimentally affected by a proposed acquisition.  The criteria are that:

(a)

the utility’s current and future ability to raise equity and debt financing not be reduced or impaired;

(b)

there be no violation of existing covenants that will be detrimental to the customers;

(c)

the conduct of the utility’s business, including the level of service, either now or in the future, will be maintained or enhanced;

(d)

the application is in compliance with appropriate enactments and/or regulations;

(e)

the structural integrity of the assets will be maintained in such a manner as to not impair utility service; and

(f)

the public interest will be preserved.

4.3.2

Views of the Parties

On October 3, 2005, the Commission issued a letter to Registered Intervenors in this Proceeding inviting submissions with respect to the issues to be considered and determined under Section 54 of the UCA and, specifically, requesting comments on the criteria outlined above (Exhibit A-6).

Terasen (Exhibit C2-2) submits that these criteria are generally consistent with those applied by the Commission in reviews of other applications under Section 54 of the UCA including Terasen’s acquisition of Centra Gas (2002), Duke Energy’s acquisition of Westcoast Energy and (indirectly) Pacific Northern Gas (2001), Pacific Northern Gas’ acquisition of Northland Utilities (1993), Utilicorp’s acquisition of West Kootenay Power (1987), and Fort Nelson Gas’ acquisition of the Fort Nelson gas distribution utility (1985).

Where they explicitly comment on theses issues, other Intervenors agree that the criteria outlined above are generally applicable to approval of an application under Section 54 (e.g., LMLGUA/CEC, Exhibit C18-5; Inland Industrials, Exhibit C9-2; BCOAPO, Exhibit C1-3; COPE Local 378, Exhibit C5-3).  Intervenors such as the LMLGUA/CEC (Exhibit C18-5), the District of Chetwynd (Exhibit C21-2), the Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter (Exhibit C11-9), the Canadian Office and Professional Employees Union – Local 378 (“COPE”), (Exhibit C5-3) and the Council of Canadians, Vancouver Chapter (Exhibit C18-8) encourage the Commission to  

20

give the broadest interpretation of its powers and to the public interest criterion (i.e., criterion (f)).  Some of the general public interest issues these Intervenors raise include possible impacts on rates, jobs in B.C., and taxes payable in B.C. and Canada.

Some Intervenors submit that the motives of KMI and the premium it has offered for Terasen should specifically be within the scope of the public interest consideration (e.g., Sykes, Exhibit C20-7; Craig, Exhibit C32-2; Council of Canadians, Vancouver Chapter, Exhibit C18-8). Many Intervenors also raise questions about the corporate structure of KMI and possible implications for the Terasen Utilities.  For example, the LMLGUA/CEC (Exhibit C18-5, p. 2) question the fairness and risks associated with KMI’s corporate structure, arguing that “Kinder Morgan is heavily subsidized by the U.S. government and this allows the company to minimize taxation of net income to enhance their balance sheet and raise capital for acquisitions.”

The Council of Canadians, Vancouver Chapter (Exhibit C18-8) raise concerns that the privacy of British Columbians may be violated under the provisions of the U.S. Patriot Act if billing and record keeping functions are relocated to offices within the U.S.

In his submission, Mr. Sykes (Exhibit C20-7, p. 3) proposes some specific criteria the Commission Panel should add to the list proposed by KMI.  These include the following.

(a)

Impacts on current and future productivity and employment relating to Terasen utilities;

(b)

Amount of money paid annually to persons outside British Columbia, and in particular persons in the United States;

(c)

Current and future amount of gas and other resources transported by Terasen utilities to the United States;

(d)

Prices of natural gas to users in British Columbia; and

(e)

Compliance of the U.S. Government with Canadian laws, including Canada-US agreements and decisions of competent authorities.

As noted previously, many letters of comment oppose the Application solely on the basis of the nationality of the Applicant. However, some letters also express more specific concerns about the possible impacts of foreign ownership on rates, service, employment, energy security, and environmental performance.

21

The BC Business Council submits that the nationality of the Applicant is not a relevant issue in this Proceeding, and goes further to highlight the benefits of foreign direct investment in the development of the Canadian and B.C. economies and the fact that Canadian companies are increasingly involved in the acquisition of foreign companies, including those in the energy and water sectors (Exhibit C10-2).

A number of submissions suggest that the Applicant must go beyond simply ensuring the Transaction has no detrimental impact on the public interest compared to the status quo, but rather must actually demonstrate positive benefits to the public interest (e.g., District of Chetwynd, Exhibit C21-2; Craig, Exhibit C32-2).

4.3.3

Commission Panel Determination

The Commission Panel accepts the criteria proposed by KMI and outlined in earlier decisions as appropriate for reviewing this Application. The Commission Panel finds that many of the concerns raised by Intervenors and in letters of comment are already contemplated by and subsumed within the criteria summarized by KMI (e.g., concerns related to compliance with environmental and safety regulations, privacy considerations, and continuity of existing service contracts).  The Commission Panel finds, for example, that the additional criteria proposed by Mr. Sykes are either redundant with the criteria proposed by KMI and used in other Decisions by the Commission (e.g., compliance with relevant laws), are irrelevant in the context of the Terasen Utilities (e.g., the Terasen Utilities do not purchase or transport gas for export and the Transaction will not alter the structure or dynamics of natural gas markets or pricing in B.C.), or are outside the relevant scope for the Commission’s review under Section 54.   

With respect to the preservation of the public interest, the Commission Panel agrees with KMI that “…the Commission’s consideration of the public interest is not a broad, open-ended examination of any issue that is raised by an Intervenor or in a letter of comment” (Exhibit B-34, p. 19).  It is up to the Commission to carefully consider the context of the specific Application to determine the appropriate criteria that it considers relevant in the circumstances.  In this particular case, the Commission Panel finds that criteria (a) through (e) above adequately capture the key issues it must consider in this Application.  Criterion (f) provides an opportunity to weigh any impacts identified in criteria (a) through (e) in order to make an overall determination of whether the Application preserves the public interest.

In determining the issues to be considered in this Proceeding, the Commission Panel has applied the following principles.

First, the public interest must be considered with respect to the Utilities over which the Commission has

22

jurisdiction. As noted by BCOAPO (Exhibit C3-1), the jurisdiction of the Commission in this matter does not extend to KMI’s acquisition of Terasen but only to the indirect acquisition of the Terasen Utilities.  Many submissions raise concerns related to the impact of the Transaction on exports of natural gas and on the availability and prices of natural gas in B.C.  However, the Terasen Utilities do not “own” natural gas and are not involved in its export.

Second, the public interest must be viewed in the context of the scope of the approval that is being requested.  For example, the Application does not request any change in the rates charged by the Terasen Utilities and does not propose any change in the jurisdiction of the Commission to regulate rates and services in the public interest.   

Third, the Commission Panel concludes that the public interest criterion used in this Proceeding should not extend beyond issues normally considered by this Commission for the general regulation of public utilities in the public interest. For example, beyond ensuring compliance with existing tax laws and other relevant regulations, the Commission does not normally consider the fairness of taxes or other transfers to government in setting utility rates or issuing certificates of public convenience and necessity.

Finally, the Commission Panel concludes that it is appropriate to exclude issues that are more appropriately dealt with by, or that are more properly within the jurisdiction of, other agencies or levels of government.  For example, the Transaction will require approval by the federal government under the Competition Act and the Investment Canada Act. The Investment Canada Act requires the federal government to examine all foreign acquisitions of Canadian companies with assets greater than $250 million in cases involving World Trade Organization member countries, to ensure the acquisition will benefit Canada.   

With respect to some of the specific issues raised by various Intervenors and letters of comment with respect to the public interest, the Commission finds as follows.

Foreign Ownership: The Commission has ruled in prior Decisions that what is relevant under Section 54 of the Utilities Commission Act is the potential detrimental impact, if any, of an acquisition upon the utility and its customers, the services provided by the utility, and the regulation of the utility by the Commission under the Act (e.g., Utilicorp Decision, 1987).  The Commission has also previously expressed the view that the foreign origin of a proposed purchaser of a reviewable interest in a domestic public utility is properly the concern of the federal government (Utilicorp Decision, p. 10).  The Commission has, therefore, focused its consideration of the foreign ownership question on an evaluation of the potential detrimental effects arising from the Transaction and this Commission Panel concludes that foreign ownership, in and of itself, is not an issue.  It is only relevant where as a result of the Transaction

23

and the new ownership, there could be an adverse functional or operational impact on the Terasen Utilities in the context of the criteria outlined above.

The Commission Panel also notes that the Transaction will require approval by the federal government under the Competition Act and the Investment Canada Act. The Investment Canada Act explicitly requires the federal government to consider benefits to Canada but this is not an assessment that is properly within the purview of the Commission under the UCA and it is not a proper role for the Commission to determine or comment upon federal policy with respect to such issues.   

Trade Disputes: Many public comments suggest linkages between this Transaction and trade disputes between Canada and the United States on issues such as softwood lumber.  It is not the role of the Commission to use its regulatory power in retaliation for trade disputes between the federal governments of Canada and the U.S., which revolve around broad issues related to market access and tariffs.  Nor would it be appropriate for the Commission to consider trade disputes that are unrelated to the Transaction in its consideration of KMI’s Application. The Panel also notes that the Terasen Utilities are not involved in the export to the United States of natural gas, which is regulated by the National Energy Board and that KMI has stated that it has no intention of diverting the Terasen Utilities’ gas supply to the United States (Exhibit B-19, Response to Varley IR No. 1, pp. 1-2). &nb sp;Further, the Commission Panel agrees with KMI that “…the provisions of the North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”) and the proportional sharing rules do not apply to this Transaction, and that matters involving NAFTA are not within the scope of this proceeding or the jurisdiction of the Commission” (Exhibit B-33, p. 5).   

Impacts on Employment: The Application does not propose any significant changes in employment within the Terasen Utilities and gives several assurances with respect to the retention of senior management and staff within the Terasen Utilities.  These assurances notwithstanding, the Commission Panel does not generally consider impacts on employment to be within the scope of this Proceeding.  Beyond complying with labour laws and general principles of fairness to employees, the Commission does not generally consider job creation as an end in and of itself, nor is it a matter that is within the purview of the Commission in its regulation of public utilities.  In any event, the Commission notes KMI’s statements that there will be some limited employee reductions related to overlapping corporate administrative functions in the Vancouver corporate office and KMI’s assurance that em ployees will be fairly treated in accordance with all applicable company policies, procedures, regulations and agreements (Exhibit B-15, Response to Wessler IR No. 1, p. 4). Further, should any staff reductions have the  potential to impact upon customer service, the Commission Panel notes that the Commission has broad powers to establish, monitor and enforce levels of service provided by public utilities within its

24

jurisdiction.

Impacts on Taxes Payable in B.C.  and Canada: Beyond ensuring compliance with existing tax laws and other relevant regulations, the Commission does not normally consider the fairness of taxes or other transfers to government in setting utility rates or issuing certificates of public convenience and necessity.  KMI states that the acquisition of Terasen by KMI will not shift the tax base of the Terasen Utilities which are B.C. taxpayers to the U.S., nor will it affect the taxable status of the Terasen Utilities in B.C.  or their obligation to pay B.C. taxes (Exhibit B-14, Response to Helten IR No. 1, p. 2).   

With respect to arguments by some Intervenors that the Applicant must demonstrate positive benefits for the public interest, the Commission Panel notes that the UCA explicitly states the Commission must not give its approval under Section 54(9) unless it considers that the public utility and users of the services of the public utility “will not be detrimentally affected.” The Commission Panel does not agree that Section 54 contemplates a more stringent test that requires further benefits to the users of the utility or general public as conditions for approval of an acquisition under Section 54.

4.4

Review Process and Sufficiency of Evidence

In their written submissions, several Intervenors argue that there is insufficient evidence for the Commission to reach a determination regarding whether the Application is in the public interest or whether any conditions that may be attached to approval of the Transaction are adequate to mitigate or eliminate potential impacts on the public interest (e.g., Sykes, Exhibit C20-7; LMLGUA/CEC, Exhibit C18-5; BCOAPO, Exhibit C1-3; Democratic Reform Party of BC, Exhibit C12-12; Wessler, Exhibit C27-4; Dimitrov, Exhibit C30-2).  Many of these submissions urge the Commission to hold oral hearings into the matter.   

Mr. Dimitrov (Exhibit C30-2) submits that the Commission Panel’s decision not to hold a public hearing constitutes a reasonable apprehension of institutional bias and he requests that the Commission Panel recuse itself and remit the matter back to the appropriate Minister.  Mr. Dimitrov further maintains that the failure or refusal of the Commission Panel to remit this matter to a full public hearing constitutes a breach of the common law doctrine of fairness, according to factors set out in the Supreme Court of Canada decision in Baker v. Canada (MCI), (July 9, 1999), S.C.J.  817, File No. 25823. Mr. Dimitrov also suggests, without referencing any factual or legal support, that a written hearing does not constitute meaningful consultation with First Nations according to law.

25

While many arguments about the review process and sufficiency of evidence were general in nature, the BCOAPO (Exhibit C1-3) cites specific concerns regarding deficiencies in the Application and KMI’s responses to Information Requests with respect to the impact of the Transaction on the credit rating of the Terasen Utilities, and whether the Terasen Utilities will continue to be operated by existing management and essentially in the manner they have been operated.

KMI submits there is clear and compelling evidence of a high degree of public consultation in the review process including the following (Exhibit B-34, p. 3).

·

Extensive communication with customers and stakeholders, including phone calls, meetings, mailings and advertising (as summarized in Exhibit B-6).

·

Open houses throughout British Columbia attended by senior executives of Terasen and KMI.

·

Thousands of letters of public comment received by the Commission.   

·

More than 30 Registered Intervenors who have submitted and received responses to Information Requests, and have had an opportunity to provide written comments.

KMI argues that an oral public hearing would not reveal any further issues that have not already been canvassed or expressed through extensive public response.

During the Pre-hearing Conference a number of Registered Intervenors took a position with respect to an oral hearing. After reviewing the comments of participants in the Pre-hearing Conference and after considering the specific issues that may be relevant to this Application, the Commission Panel established a written hearing process, which included two rounds of Information Requests (Exhibit A-4).  However, the Commission Panel also established a date for a possible oral phase of submissions if the Commission Panel had questions arising from written submissions.  Having reviewed all written submissions, the Commission Panel determined that an oral phase would not be required (Exhibit A-7).

Section 40(1) of the Administrative Tribunals Act, S.B.C. 2004, c. 45, which applies to the Commission, provides as follows:

(1)

The tribunal may receive and accept information that it considers relevant, necessary and
appropriate, whether or not the information would be admissible in a court of law.

With respect to the sufficiency of evidence in this Proceeding, the Commission Panel agrees with Mr. Sykes that

26

the onus is on KMI, the Applicant, to prove its case with sufficient evidence (Exhibit C-20, p. 3).  However, the Commission Panel is satisfied with the adequacy of evidence before it.  In arriving at this determination, the Commission Panel considered the adequacy of evidence as it relates to issues it has determined are relevant to the Application under Section 54 of the UCA. Both Registered Intervenors and the general public raised many concerns about the adequacy of evidence that relate to issues the Commission Panel considers beyond the appropriate scope of this Proceeding, as outlined in the preceding section.  Again, having considered the issues raised and the nature of the concerns expressed by Intervenors and the public in the letters of comment, the Commission Panel does not consider that a further oral submission phase or oral public process would have identified new issues or would have provided material assistance to the Commission Panel to consider and make a decision related to KMI’s Application.

The Commission Panel also notes that while the various assurances made by KMI are helpful, it has not relied solely on these assurances to establish whether the Transaction will or will not preserve the public interest.  In many cases, the Commission Panel considers that it is sufficient to establish that the Transaction does not alter or hinder the current authority and sanction powers of the Commission over the Terasen Utilities.  This limits somewhat the scope of evidence that the Commission Panel must rely on in making its determination regarding the possible impacts of the Transaction on the public interest.

REVIEW OF RELEVANT ISSUES

5.1

Introduction

In Section 4.3.3 of this Decision, the Commission Panel discussed the criteria relevant for determining whether the Transaction should be approved under Section 54 of the UCA.  In this section, the Commission Panel reviews the evidence and makes specific determinations regarding the potential impacts of the Transaction in relation to those criteria.

5.2

KMI’s Financing Ability

5.2.1

Views of the Parties

In its Application filed on August 17, 2005, KMI stated that the Transaction would not affect the financing ability of the Terasen Utilities. In its Information Request, Commission Staff requested more direct evidence that the Transaction would not impair the credit rating and financial capability of TGI and the other Terasen Utilities (Exhibit A-2). In response, KMI filed a copy of a press release from the Dominion Bond Rating Service (“DBRS”) dated August 2, 2005 and also filed copies of investment analyst reports on KMI and Terasen issued after the announcement of the Transaction.  The DBRS press release stated, in part, that “…[i]n view of the standalone nature of these operations, DBRS believes that the business and financial risk profile of the above-noted issuer would not be changed by completion of the proposed transaction between KMI and Terasen.  Consequently, DBRS is confirming its r atings as noted above” (Exhibit B-4, Schedule 2).   

In their first Information Requests, LMLGUA/CEC (Exhibit C18-2) and the Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter (Exhibit C11-2) asked KMI if it was aware of credit watch alerts issued by other credit rating agencies such as Moody’s Investors’ Services (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor (“S&P”). In its responses, KMI acknowledged that Moody’s and S&P issued credit watch alerts following announcement of the Transaction.  However, KMI maintained that it “…did not believe the referenced credit agency reviews would result in any detrimental affect on the financing capabilities of the Terasen Utilities, and believed that it was premature to address or speculate on credit agency reviews while discussions were taking place” (Exhibit B-16, Response to LMLGUA and CEC IR No. 1, p. 2).

In response to the concerns raised by Intervenors and others, and based on credit agency discussions, KMI subsequently proposed “ring-fencing” conditions that could be attached to a Commission order approving the Transaction. In its final submission KMI acknowledges that “a downgrade in TGI’s credit rating resulting from

28

the Transaction [emphasis in original] could increase the costs of borrowing and such costs are integrally linked to utility rates as part of the overall cost of service” (Exhibit B-34, p. 4).  KMI submits that the ring-fencing conditions should mitigate any risks that the financing capabilities of the Terasen Utilities would not be reduced or impaired as a result of the Transaction.  Further, KMI suggests these conditions create a benefit for the customers of the Terasen Utilities that currently does not exist.

The specific ring-fencing conditions (included in Exhibit B-12, Response to Council of Canadians, Powell River

Chapter IR No. 1, among others) proposed by KMI are as follows.

(1)

Each Terasen Utility shall maintain, on a basis consistent with BCUC orders and accounting practices, a percentage of common equity to total capital that is at least as much as that determined by the Commission from time to time for ratemaking purposes.

(2)

No Terasen Utility will pay a common dividend without prior Commission approval if the result would reasonably be expected to violate the restriction in 1) above.

(3)

No Terasen Utility will lend to, guarantee or financially support any affiliates of the Terasen Utilities, other than between TGI and TGS, or as otherwise accepted by the Commission.  TGI and TGS shall together maintain separate banking and cash management arrangements from other affiliates.  TGVI shall establish separate banking and cash management arrangements from other affiliates once it has completed its proposed refinancing.

(4)

No Terasen Utility will enter into transactions with affiliates on terms less favourable to the Terasen Utility than those available from third parties on an arms-length basis, unless otherwise accepted by the Commission.

(5)

No Terasen Utility will engage in, provide financial support to or guarantee non-regulated businesses, unless otherwise accepted by the Commission.

In response to an Information Request from the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Petroleum Resources (“MEMPR”)

(Exhibit B-28, Response to MEMPR IR No. 2, p. 7), KMI explained that:

·

Condition 1 and 2 would help to ensure the Terasen Utilities maintain a level of common equity approved by the Commission.

·

Condition 3 would restrict exposure of the Terasen Utilities to the risks of other affiliates.  The restriction on banking arrangements would further ensure that in the event of bankruptcy of the parent company or an affiliate, the bank assets of the Terasen Utilities will not be subject to seizure by creditors.

·

Condition 4 would reinforce the protections provided by Condition 3 by restricting non-arms-length transactions with affiliates.

·

Condition 5 is similar to Condition 3 but would further restrict involvement of the Terasen Utilities in non-regulated activities.

29

In its final submission, Terasen (Exhibit C2-2) includes a press release from Moody’s Investors’ Service, which states that “Moody’s believes that the provisions proposed by KMI…would serve to substantially insulate TGI…”. Although Moody’s continues to review Terasen’s credit ratings, KMI submits that this is not relevant to this Proceeding since Terasen is not a regulated public utility.  Further, KMI notes that Moody’s continues to review TGI but states that this review predates the Transaction and is related to TGI’s stand-alone credit profile relative to its gas distribution peers (Exhibit B-34, p. 6).  KMI also notes that the Commission will have continuing oversight of debt costs through its existing and regular review of utility rates.

The BC Business Council (Exhibit C10-2) supports the ring-fencing conditions as suggested by KMI.  The Inland Industrials support the concept of establishing ring-fencing conditions, but also submit that the success of this approach depends on several factors (Exhibit C9-2). First, the Inland Industrials argue that it is not possible to write an exhaustive set of conditions that anticipate all future situations in which the Terasen Utilities may experience adverse effects arising from the activities of the broader KMI/Terasen corporate family of companies.  They argue that the Commission must have an ongoing mandate to impose regulatory conditions on TGI that will preserve its credit rating and financial integrity on a stand-alone basis.  Second, they argue that TGI must file sufficient and timely financial information to ensure no detrimental impacts, and that the Commission identify issues and bring them fo rward for public review as necessary.  Finally, they argue that the Commission must maintain expertise to review the financial information and accounting practices of TGI.   

COPE 378 (Exhibit C5-3), the LMLGUA/CEC (Exhibit C18-5), and the BCOAPO (Exhibit C1-3) express additional concerns related to the ring-fencing conditions proposed by KMI.  BCOAPO argues that the Commission should not consider approving the Transaction until it determines what, if any, impact on ratepayers will result from the final determination of Moody’s or any other credit rating agencies.   

The Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter argues that there is considerable uncertainty over the extent to which the ring-fencing conditions will be sufficient to protect ratepayers and urges the Commission to place a condition on the sale that “should credit ratings be negatively affected by the sale, utility ratepayers would be held harmless and shareholders would bear any increased cost of borrowing” (Exhibit C11-9, p. 4).  The LMLGUA/CEC (Exhibit C18-5) “are not satisfied that the very general and non-specific proposals of the Applicant to “ring fence”’ the Utilities will mitigate this [credit] risk” (p. 7).   

The LMLGUA/CEC, as well as the Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter, both refer to the evidence of Dr. Laurence Booth that was prepared on behalf of the Joint Industry Electricity Steering Committee (“JIESC”),

30

the LMLGUA/CEC and others on October 12, 2005 and that was filed in the Terasen Return on Equity (“ROE”) proceeding currently before the Commission (Exhibit C2-6 in that proceeding), and included in its entirety as an attachment to Exhibit C11-9 in this Proceeding.  In his evidence in the Terasen ROE proceeding, Dr. Booth provided background on the S&P’s approach to Canadian utility holding companies, and the reasons S&P’s approach may vary from Canadian rating agencies such as DBRS.  Dr. Booth cited examples from the 1990s of several US telecoms whose credit-worthiness was downgraded when they were acquired by more risky holding companies and the holding company had control of the subsidiary and could over-leverage it or dividend cash out to support parent company debt.  Dr. Booth maintained that as a result of these cases S&P now has a policy that the cre dit rating of a regulated telecom cannot be higher than the credit rating of its parent.  However, Dr. Booth noted that while the S&P rarely assigns a different default risk to an unregulated subsidiary, it will consider exceptions in the case of a regulated subsidiary where the regulators are involved in insulating a subsidiary from its parent. Specific “structural insulation techniques”’ may include separate incorporation of the subsidiary, independent directors, minority ownership stakes and ongoing regulatory oversight of the subsidiary.  With respect to the last condition, Dr. Booth indicated that the S&P requires a high standard of evidence that appropriate regulatory intervention will be forthcoming to protect bond holders and therefore support a higher credit rating. Dr. Booth suggested that FERC’s rules and subsequent investigations regarding inter-affiliate transfers within Enron were insufficient to meet the S&P’s standard of evidence.

In the context of the KMI acquisition of Terasen, Dr. Booth cited concerns about the premium paid for Terasen and the manner in which the deal is being financed.  Dr. Booth suggested that the premium indicates either that TGI’s financial parameters are too generous, or that KMI has “found a new way to wring cash out of TGI” (as quoted in Exhibit C18-5, p. 10). Dr. Booth referred to a CIBC World Markets (“CIBC”) report dated August 19, 2005 (filed as part of Commission Information Request No. 1) that claims KMI plans a “double dip” financing structure (i.e., making interest deductions in Canada and the U.S.) resulting in lower income taxes payable by Terasen. Dr. Booth indicated that CIBC assumes that savings in income taxes will be allocated to the benefit of shareholders rather than ratepayers, and that interest charges can be allocated without any reduction in the equity component of revenue requirements.  Dr. Booth suggested that the report is troubling because it conflicts with standard regulatory practice.  Specifically, he argues that if the $2 billion in acquisition financing can be pushed down to the operating companies, then the revenue requirements of those companies should also be altered, in recognition of the fact they can carry more debt.  Further, Dr. Booth suggested that the additional $2 billion of debt at the parent level raises concerns about the management of cash flow in the Terasen Utilities and  specifically the possibility that the Terasen Utilities may be required to increase dividend payments to support KMI’s higher debt loads.  Dr. Booth notes these concerns have been raised by other investment analysts such as BMO-Nesbitt Burns.

31

Given the highly leveraged nature of the KMI Transaction, Dr. Booth suggested:

·

TGI’s financial parameters (ROE and common equity ratio) remain as is since there is no demonstrated need to increase these given the premium paid for Terasen.

·

There is no need to increase TGI’s financial parameters to help pay for the KMI acquisition.

·

That TGI be ring fenced to prevent it being “raided” to support the parent’s debt load and that interest costs of TGI are fair and reasonable.

·

The ring-fencing should include restrictions on dividend payments to a maximum of 70 percent of TGI’s earnings; prohibition on inter-corporate loans and tax sharing agreements; restrictions on the management of TGI’s cash, such that TGI maintains separate cash management services with a separate treasurer and CEO signing off on TGI financial statements.

These suggestions notwithstanding, the LMLGUA/CEC continue to express concerns about the ability of these and other ring-fencing conditions to protect ratepayers.  They also express concerns that the Transaction is being financed through U.S. tax subsidies and that this represents an unfair competitive advantage compared to other companies who pay corporate tax.

KMI challenges the use of Dr. Booth’s evidence in these Proceedings but also responds to his concerns in its final submission (Exhibit B-34).  Specifically, KMI challenges Dr. Booth’s view that the only reason it would pay a premium for Terasen (and similarly have the ability to finance the acquisition) is because KMI intends to “strip” or “wring” cash out of TGI. In its responses to Commission Information Requests (Exhibit B-4), KMI argued that the enterprise consists not just of the Terasen Utilities but also includes Terasen’s strong oil pipelines and other businesses. KMI also provided information on its ability to finance the cash portion of the consideration to be paid to Terasen’s shareholders with approximately $2.1 billion in debt (Exhibit B-5).  KMI indicated that the Transaction will increase the parent’s current debt to total capital ratio from 38 percent to 56 percent, and that the additional debt will be financed by available cash from Terasen, including the Terasen Utilities (Exhibit B-4, Schedule 2). KMI maintains that this is a legitimate and discretionary use of available cash, which will in turn be restricted by the proposed ring-fencing conditions.  KMI also points out that in addition to the ring-fencing conditions, the Commission has supplemental and existing cash management constraints on the Terasen Utilities resulting from its existing regulatory authority.   

KMI also takes exception with the assertion by the LMLGUA/CEC that the Transaction is being heavily subsidized through KMI’s U.S. limited partnership tax status and that this represents an unfair competitive advantage to KMI. In particular, KMI asserts that Intervenors have confused KMI, the Applicant, with KMP, a master limited partnership indirectly owned by KMI.

32

KMI submits that the proposed ring-fencing conditions, combined with the Commission’s existing and continuing regulatory authority over Terasen Utilities’ operations and activities, is sufficient to protect ratepayers and that these conditions provide a new and additional long-term benefit to utility customers that currently does not exist.  Specifically, there are no formal ring-fencing conditions between Terasen and the Terasen Utilities.

In response to arguments made by the Inland Industrials, KMI also submits that the Commission need not set out an “open-ended” condition for events that may or may not transpire after the completion of this Transaction, but may use its ongoing regulatory authority to ensure the interests of customers are addressed with respect to future issues and events. KMI also maintains that existing financial disclosure requirements are sufficient to address financial issues after the Transaction is completed, including verification of compliance with ring-fencing conditions. KMI also confirms that “…there are no covenants, agreements or legislative restrictions on the Kinder Morgan Companies that would reduce or impair the ability of the Terasen Utilities to access capital markets…” and that “…none of the Terasen Utilities will be obligated now, or in the future, to guarante e the debt obligations of KMI, Subco or any KMI affiliates (Exhibit B-34, p. 10).  KMI further notes that “with respect to the intended financial arrangements to be put in place by KMI to complete the acquisition of Terasen, there will not be any covenants requiring guarantees from the Terasen Utilities…” and “…any such guarantee would require advance approval of the Commission under Section 50(5) of the Utilities Commission Act” (Exhibit B-34, p. 10).  In addition, ring-fencing Condition 3 would also prevent such inter-corporate guarantees.

5.2.2

Commission Panel Determination

The Commission Panel agrees that its jurisdiction extends only to the Terasen Utilities, and not to the parent companies Terasen, Subco or KMI.  What is relevant to this Proceeding is the impact of the Transaction on the financing capability of the Terasen Utilities.   

The Commission Panel shares the concern of BCOAPO (Exhibit C1-3) and was displeased that, in response to the initial Commission Information Request, KMI was not totally forthcoming about concerns raised by bond rating service agencies with respect to the Transaction.

Having considered the subsequent submissions, the Commission Panel agrees with KMI and Intervenors that ring-fencing conditions would be beneficial in mitigating possible risks arising from the financial status of the parent companies and non-regulated affiliates following the Transaction.  After reviewing the submissions of Intervenors, however, the Commission Panel has revised the ring-fencing conditions proposed by KMI. Specifically, the Commission Panel has added one additional condition that no Terasen

33

Utility will enter into a tax sharing agreement with any affiliate of the Terasen Utility, unless the agreement has been approved by the Commission. In addition, the Commission Panel has modified the fourth condition proposed by KMI to include reference to Commission guidelines, policies, and directives regarding affiliate transactions. The full set of revised conditions are contained in Section 7.0 of this Decision.

The ring-fencing conditions will apply in perpetuity and may be revisited and revised or supplemented by the Commission as required to protect the public interest.  Each Terasen Utility will accept and comply with all directions or conditions issued by the Commission from time to time, in particular those directions or conditions that the Commission may issue in the future so as to ensure that the Terasen Utility and the users of the services of the Terasen Utility will not be detrimentally affected by the acquisition of the shares of Terasen Inc. by KMI.

While the Commission Panel is somewhat reassured by the statements made by Moody’s, it notes that the press release contains somewhat tentative language.  Specifically, the press release states that “Moody’s believes that the provisions proposed by KMI…would serve to substantially insulate TGI…” [emphasis added] (Exhibit B-4, Schedule 2). However, the Commission Panel notes that given the modified ring-fencing conditions suggested above and the Commission’s ongoing jurisdiction over the recovery of costs, it need not wait for and rely on a determination by credit agencies to approve the Transaction.  The Commission Panel notes that in the event of a credit downgrade arising specifically from this Transaction, the Commission can deny recovery of higher debt service costs from ratepayers.   

The Commission Panel also notes that in response to the Information Requests from the LMLGUA/CEC, KMI has provided an assurance “… that it does not intend to apply to recover from Terasen Gas utilities (sic) ratepayers any premium that it may be paying for the acquisition of the shares of Terasen Inc.” (Exhibit B-16,

p. 14). This assurance notwithstanding, the Commission Panel notes that in the event future costs can be directly linked to the Transaction, the Commission may deny recovery of these costs in rates based on assurances and determinations made in this Application.   

34

The Commission Panel concludes that it does not need to establish fixed targets for ROE or common equity ratios at this time, since these matters are already subject to regular review by the Commission.

In addition to the ring-fencing conditions above, the Commission Panel also has determined that a further condition should be attached to approval of the Transaction.  The Commission Panel finds that the Terasen Utilities should be required to maintain existing governance policies and that any changes in these policies should be approved by the Commission.  Specifically, in response to an Information Request from Mr. Black, KMI states that “Within the mandate of Terasen’s Board of Directors is a requirement that a majority of the Directors comprising the Board must be independent Directors.  A Director is independent if he or she has no material direct or indirect material relationship with Terasen” (Exhibit B-30, Response to Anderson IR No. 2, p. 2).  The Commission Panel considers that the continued independence of a majority of Directors will provide a further assurance that the Terasen Utilities will comply with the ring-fencing conditions.

5.3

Impact on Existing Covenants

In its final submission, KMI maintains that since the ownership of the Terasen Utilities by Terasen will not be changed by the completion of the Transaction, the Transaction will not affect any existing covenants given by the Terasen Utilities, whether financial, commercial or otherwise (Exhibit B-34, p. 11).  In its original Application, KMI also assured the Commission that it will ensure the Terasen Utilities are in a position to meet their capital investment obligations (Exhibit B-1, p. 20).  In response to an Information Request from Mr. Downey, KMI noted that “…the Terasen Utilities land use arrangements, tenures, etc.  and those of the Terasen companies involved in the transportation of petroleum products, do not change with the Transaction since those companies will continue to hold the land rights. KMI will become the shareholder of the parent of those companies, which will not affect any of the land rights” (Exhibit B-11, p. 2).  In response to an Information Request from the City of Abbotsford, KMI also indicated that “…[e]xisting easements, right-of-way grants, facility locations, etc. will not change as a result of the Transaction” (Exhibit B-24, p. 1). No Intervenors raise any issues related to existing covenants in their final submissions.   

The Commission Panel accepts KMI’s assurances and concludes that the Transaction will not affect any existing covenants, whether financial, commercial or otherwise.

5.4

Conduct of Utility Business and Customer Service

5.4.1

Views of the Parties

The LMLGUA/CEC raise questions about any premium KMI may have offered for Terasen and how such a premium, if any, would be recovered by KMI (Exhibit C18-5).  The LMLGUA/CEC are concerned that any premium must somehow be recovered from customers of the Terasen Utilities and they submit that reductions in costs and associated service levels are a likely source of such recovery.  They suggest that “…[t]o gain a level of comfort that service levels will not be the primary vehicle to recoup high investment costs, service standards and proactive maintenance commitments should be more clearly benchmarked and auditable” (Exhibit C18-5, pp. 1314). They also suggest that the Application “…raises significant concerns around gas purchasing and supply” (Exhibit C18-5, p. 15). They maintain that these risks arise from KMI’s ownership of entities in storage, retail and transportation sectors. T hey note these risks are not clearly identifiable at this time and suggest additional conditions such as requiring procurement of gas supply remain in British Columbia and remain independent and discrete from other KMI gas purchasing activities.   

COPE 378 (Exhibit C5-3) and the BCOAPO (Exhibit C1-3) both maintain that the Commission cannot conclude that the conduct of utility business and customer services will be maintained because of possible changes in senior management, loss of employees and lack of information regarding the Terasen reorganization.   

The BCOAPO submits that in addition to the financial ring-fencing proposals put forward by KMI, the Commission should impose four additional conditions related to the future management of the Terasen Utilities and the make-up of the Board of Directors of the Terasen Utilities and Terasen as follows: 1) the Terasen Utilities will continue to be operated as presently constituted; 2) the management of the Terasen Utilities will be retained; 3) the Boards of the Terasen Utilities will be Canadian; and 4) the Board of the company finally constituted as the parent company of the Terasen Utilities, its senior management will be Canadian (Exhibit C1-3, p. 6).  With respect to the last condition, BCOAPO acknowledges the Commission does not have jurisdiction over the parent company of the Terasen Utilities but it sees no reason why this could still not be made a condition or why KMI would not agree to such a condition.

The Council of Canadians, Vancouver Chapter (Exhibit C11-8) raises concerns about corporate practices with respect to the location of customer records and possible impacts on the privacy of customer information if those records were to be kept in the United States.

Hul’qumi’num Treaty Group expressed concerns that KMI and Subco do not have a policy or mandate to develop

36

relationships or reconcile interests with Aboriginal communities, as highlighted in recent court decisions (Exhibit D-22). As a result, Hul’qumi’num Treaty Group urges the Commission to either deny the Application, or attach a condition for a clear written policy and mandate, as well as a commitment to retain the Aboriginal Liaison department.

Mr. Anderson raises concerns about the priorities in capital allocation decisions by Terasen and its new parent.  Specifically, he argues:  

“…the priority of KMI in the takeover of Terasen is to expand the pipeline services portion of the business. Their infusion of cash into Canadian operations will be focussed in this area since it will give the greatest return on investment.  Expansion of the utility portion of the Terasen business would in fact be in direct conflict with this prime objective of facilitating exports of fossil fuels through the non-regulated Terasen infrastructure. Thus any project that would expand the utility services would be at a considerable disadvantage for being approved by KMI over other possible projects” (Exhibit C15-7, p. 1).

Mr. Sykes suggests that the BCUC specify the Code of Conduct, Transfer Pricing Policies, Retail Markets Downstream of the Meter (RMDM) Guidelines and other rules that apply to ensure the criteria are met and that KMI will not allow any of the Terasen Utilities to restrict the supply of gas to the existing or future users of services of Terasen Utilities (Exhibit C20-7, p. 28).

KMI suggests that COPE 378 and BCOAPO have confused the potential for changes in executives of Terasen and the operational management of the Terasen Utilities (Exhibit B-34).  KMI further expects the operational management of the Terasen Utilities to remain in place and commits that it will take reasonable steps to retain all key Terasen staff .  However, citing the British Columbia Court of Appeal decision in British Columbia Hydro & Power Authority v British Columbia (Utilities Commission) (1996), 20 B.C.L.R. (3d) 106 (B.C.C.A.), KMI submits that the imposition of conditions related to the future management of the Terasen Utilities and the Directors of the Terasen and the Terasen Utilities Boards is not within the jurisdiction of the Commission (Exhibit B-34, p. 12). In its responses to Information Requests and again in its final submission, KMI makes several assurances with respect to the management o f the Terasen Utilities as follows:

·

Quality of Service: “…the quality of service of the Terasen Utilities will not be detrimentally affected by KMI acquiring indirect ownership of the parent company” (Exhibit B-34, p. 11).  “Following the Transaction, KMI will provide, and/or will cause its subsidiaries and affiliates, including Terasen, to continue to provide, services to the Terasen Utilities in accordance with the terms and conditions of each of the Service Agreements, for the duration of the term of those agreements” (pp. 12-13).  “…[Customer Care] arrangements will not change as a result of the Transaction” (p. 13).  “Under it’s [sic] 2004-2007 rate settlement, TGI is to maintain and report on a series of Service Quality Indicators (SQIs) and Directional Indicators. KMI is open to exploring the introduction of SQIs for TGV [sic] similar to those

37

        at TGI” (p. 15).

·

Staff: “…KMI will take all reasonable steps to retain key Terasen staff and anticipates only some limited employee reductions related to overlapping corporate administrative functions primarily in the Vancouver corporate office of Terasen Inc.” (p. 11).

·

Senior Management: “…[w]ith respect to the Terasen Utilities, KMI intends to retain key senior
management” (p. 11).

·

Headquarters: “The location of the headquarters of the Terasen Utilities in Greater Vancouver will not change as a result of this Transaction” (p. 12).

·

Pipeline Integrity Programs:  “The Terasen Utilities will have existing pipeline integrity management programs in place which will continue to be managed and maintained by the management team for the Terasen Utilities into the future…Following the Transaction, changes to existing pipeline integrity management programs and policies would be made, as they would be made without this Transaction, only if justified from a safety, reliability, and efficiency standpoint, and only if in compliance with statutes and regulations and after appropriate consultation with the Commission” (p. 13).

·

Governance: “Following the closing, the Boards of Subco, Terasen and the resulting entity from the amalgamation of Subco and Terasen are expected to have a majority of Canadian members” (Exhibit B-27, Response to Council of Canadians, Power River Chapter IR No. 2, p. 11).  

In addition to these assurances, KMI stresses again that completion of the Transaction would not affect the Commission’s ongoing regulation of the Terasen Utilities in the public interest.   

5.4.2

Commission Panel Determination

The Commission Panel acknowledges and appreciates the assurances made by KMI with respect to business conduct and services. However, the Commission Panel also notes that, if approved, the Transaction would not alter the Commission’s broad supervisory authority over the Terasen Utilities or its sanction powers if the Terasen Utilities fail to comply with the Commission’s requirements.  The Commission’s powers with respect to the supervision of public utilities include authority over the extension of works, the filing of rate schedules, reporting requirements and other matters it considers advisable for the safety, convenience and service of the public.  Further, under Section 26 of the UCA the Commission may, on its own motion or on complaint, hold a hearing to determine and set just and reasonable standards, classifications, rules, practices or services to be used by the public utility; determine an d set standards for measuring the quantity or quality of service; and prescribe regulations for examining, testing or measuring service.   

The Commission Panel also notes that, in other processes, the Commission has approved a Code of Conduct and Transfer Pricing Policy that governs the relationship between TGI and non-regulated businesses for the use and

38

pricing of Utility resources for unregulated activities (i.e., products or services for which there are no Commission approved tariffs). This includes shared services, employment or contracting of Utility personnel, and the treatment of customer, utility, or confidential information (Commission Order No. G-51-03, Appendix A, pp. 2122). The Commission Panel concludes that the Transaction in no way changes the obligations imposed on the Terasen Utilities under these guidelines.  The Commission Panel notes KMI’s assurance that Terasen’s Internal Audit department will review the Terasen Utilities’ compliance with the Code of Conduct and Transfer Pricing Policy (Exhibit B-34, p. 16).  However, the Commission Panel also notes that as part of TGI’s 2004-2007 negotiated settlement, TGI is required to file an internal audit report in its Annual Review material (Commission Ord er No. G-51-03, Appendix A, pp. 21-22). Although not required, TGI has also decided to file an external audit report each year.

The Commission Panel does not agree with the additional conditions suggested by BCOAPO.  The Commission Panel notes that any change in the organization of the existing Terasen Utilities (e.g., consolidation, amalgamation or disposition) would require Commission approval.  The Commission Panel acknowledges the assurances made by KMI regarding staff, senior management and Directors of Terasen.  However, the Commission Panel notes that the Commission does not currently impose conditions regarding the hiring or removal of senior staff in utilities and considers that it would be difficult to enforce such a condition in the context of this Transaction.  Further, the Commission Panel has included conditions related to general governance practices in its discussion of ring-fencing. Beyond requiring the maintenance of current governance policies, the Commission Panel does not consider it appropriate to place f urther specific constraints on the composition of Boards of Directors and notes that the Commission does not currently impose such constraints on other public utilities within its jurisdiction. Finally, the Commission Panel agrees it has no jurisdiction over the parent of the Terasen Utilities and therefore concludes it could not effectively impose conditions with respect to the management or Directors of the parent.

With respect to the submission of Mr. Anderson raising concerns about the management priorities of Terasen following the Transaction, the Commission Panel assumes that Terasen currently has incentives to allocate capital to those areas of its businesses that have the greatest return on investment.  These incentives are, in part, balanced by the obligation of its subsidiary Utilities to serve and the powers of the Commission to require adequate capitalization and service quality within the Terasen Utilities.  The Commission Panel notes that the Transaction does not in any way reduce the Utilities’ obligations or the Commission’s regulatory powers in this regard.

With respect to the concerns of the Hul’qumi’num Treaty Group regarding the reconciliation of Aboriginal title and rights and treaty negotiations and related court decisions, the Commission Panel notes that regardless of

39

ownership, the location of the assets and operations of the Terasen Utilities in B.C. will not change as a result of the Transaction and that the Terasen Utilities would continue to be subject to any related commitments or obligations imposed by court decisions.  The Commission Panel also notes that commitments made to Aboriginal communities are and will continue to be the responsibility of the management of the Terasen Utilities and the Commission Panel expects that the Terasen Utilities will continue to meet or exceed the standards for relationship building and maintenance which have been established with the Hul’qumi’num by Terasen Inc.   

With respect to the privacy concerns raised by the Council of Canadians, Vancouver Chapter, and other concerns about gas procurement and other critical functions, the Commission Panel concludes that it would be appropriate to attach further conditions to the approval of the Transaction to protect customer interests.  The Commission Panel notes that under Section 44(2) of the UCA, “…[a] public utility must not remove or permit to be removed from British Columbia an account or record [required by the commission]…except on conditions specified by the Commission.  Section 54(9) of the UCA also permits the Commission to attach conditions and requirements to an approval under Section 54 that it considers necessary and desirable in the public interest.  In order to address concerns related to privacy and the general removal of critical functions from the Utilities’ service areas, the Commissio n Panel concludes that it should establish a condition that requires KMI not to change the geographic location of any existing functions or data currently in the Terasen Utilities’ service areas, without prior approval of the Commission.  

5.5

Compliance with Appropriate Enactments and Regulations

In its Application (Exhibit B-1), KMI states that the Transaction will not be completed unless and until it receives all required governmental and regulatory authorizations.  As a result, at the time of its completion, the Transaction will be in compliance with all applicable Provincial and Federal legislation and regulations.  In its final submission (Exhibit B-34, p. 14), KMI provides an update on the current status of regulatory approvals:

(a)

Competition Act: On August 22, 2005, the Commissioner of Competition, acting through her designee, issued an advance ruling certificate in respect of the Transaction.  KMI is thereby exempted from the obligation to file a notification.  Thus, there are no approvals required under the Competition Act

(b)

Investment Canada Act: KMI’s application for review with the Investment Review Division of Industry Canada (“IRD”) was filed on August 18, 2005.  KMI is in discussions with IRD on possible undertakings in support of the Minister’s review of KMI’s application.

(c)

Water Utility Act: KMI is required to apply for approval of the Transaction in relation to the Panorama Mountain Water Utility operated by TMUS.  KMI submitted its application to the Comptroller on August 23, 2005, and on October 12, 2005, the Deputy Comptroller of Water Rights approved the application.

40

No Intervenors specifically challenge these statements, although the LMLGUA/CEC (Exhibit C18-5) note that KMI has been involved in a large number of regulatory and litigation matters which, in its view, raises concerns regarding the aggressiveness with which the Applicant deals with the appropriate enactments and regulations.

The Commission Panel concludes that the Transaction, even with Commission approval, will not be completed until KMI obtains all other necessary governmental and regulatory approvals.  

5.6

Structural Integrity of Assets

5.6.1

Views of the Parties

With respect to impacts on the structural integrity of public utility assets, KMI (Exhibit B-34) submits that the Transaction will not alter the Commission’s broad authority or sanction powers over the Terasen Utilities, which include general powers over reliability and safety.  KMI points out that the Terasen Utilities are also subject to the continuing oversight of the BC Safety Authority, the BC Oil and Gas Commission, and the BC Workers Compensation Board.  KMI notes that the BC Safety Authority and the Oil and Gas Commission have both indicated they see no detrimental impact from the Transaction and have no safety or environmental concerns arising from the Transaction (Exhibit B-12, Response to Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter IR No. 1, p. 7; Exhibit E-32; Exhibit E-10). KMI also notes that the Terasen Utilities will also continue to be subject to all other local, provincial and federal environm ental and safety regulations and standards.  KMI submits that to the best of its knowledge, and the knowledge of TGI management, TGI has never been subject to an environmental legal proceeding that has resulted in a fine.

With respect to pipeline integrity, KMI refers to the existing pipeline integrity management programs at the Terasen Utilities that were approved by the Commission, as well as a rigorous distribution integrity management program.  KMI assures the Commission it “…has no intention or plans whatsoever to make any changes in the Terasen Utilities that would adversely affect or be in any way detrimental to the ability of the Terasen Utilities to continue providing safe and reliable service to their customers in compliance with the applicable safety and environmental laws and regulations” (Exhibit B-34, p. 15).  With respect to pipeline integrity, KMI specifically

41

warrants that “[t]he pipeline integrity management programs and the rigorous distribution integrity management program will continue to be managed and maintained by the management team for the Terasen Utilities into the future” (Exhibit B-34, p. 16).

KMI further assures the Commission that, in consultation with the management of the Terasen Utilities, it “…will examine opportunities for best practice enhancements to operations, relationships and practices of the Terasen Utilities after the Transaction” (Exhibit B-34, p. 16).

The BC Business Council (Exhibit C10-2) is satisfied with the reviews conducted by two safety regulators of the Terasen Utilities that there will be no deleterious safety consequences resulting from the acquisition.

Several Intervenors, including the LMLGUA/CEC, COPE 378, the Council of Canadian, Powell River Chapter, and Ms. Baldazzi express skepticism about KMI’s ability and commitment to ensure the Terasen Utilities’ high level of safety and service, citing various environmental and safety incidents, investigations and sanctions in other jurisdictions.

KMI suggests that the submissions of Intervenors related to KMI’s environmental and safety record are misleading.  Specifically, KMI states that the various media reports and extracts filed by Ms. Baldazzi and the extracted Form 10K filings (annual filings on a company’s business and financial condition required by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission) referred to by the LMLGUA/CEC are actually in relation to its affiliate KMP and/or KMP subsidiaries, not KMI. KMI submits that “…the difference between KMI and KMP as it relates to the business of the Terasen Utilities is significant and should not be minimized or ignored by either the Intervenors or the Commission for the purposes of this Application” [emphasis in original] (Exhibit C-34, p. 17).  KMI notes that it has owned and operated natural gas utility systems in the United States for approximately 70 years through its business unit “KM Retail .”  KMI submits that “…KM Retail has a strong record of safety and environmental compliance with respect to its natural gas utility assets and services.  KM Retail has not committed any material breach of any environmental or safety rules, regulations or legislation in the past seven years or more, and no penalties or costs have been incurred or passed through to customers/ratepayers [sic]” (Exhibit B-34, p. 17). More details of their environmental and safety record are set out in KMI’s response to Information Requests from the LMLGUA/CEC (Exhibit B-16, Response to LMLGUA and CEC IR No. 1, pp. 6-13).  KMI argues that “…where there is interaction between KMI and the Terasen Utilities regarding the operation of best practices related to a natural gas utility business, the KMI personnel most involved in such interactions will be those individuals who operate KM Retails’ natural gas utility business operations” (Exhibit B-34, p. 18). KMI points out that KMP acquires, owns and operates mostly existing energy assets that were constructed many years ago by predecessor companies.  KMI acknowledges the environmental and safety related incidents that have

42

occurred in relation to these assets and advises that “…KMP has put in place additional organizational processes to more effectively monitor and oversee environmental, health and safety matters and to ensure future compliance with all applicable laws and regulations” (Exhibit B-34, p. 18).  Further, in response to an Information Request from the Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter, KMI maintained that “…[n]o fines or penalties assessed against KMI have ever been passed on to customers in rate proceeding matters” (Exhibit B-12, Response to Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter, IR No. 1, p. 8).

Finally, KMI notes that the Terasen Utilities will remain subject to environmental and safety laws in British Columbia and Canada and assures the Commission that it “…will seek to maintain and enhance the current level of safety and reliability for the Terasen Utilities customers through the capture of the expanded operational experience expected to be gained and shared as a result of the Terasen Utilities being part of a more diverse enterprise under the KMI corporate group umbrella” (Exhibit B-34, p. 18).

5.6.2

Commission Panel Determination

Given the existing systems and management record of the Terasen Utilities, the natural gas system operating experience of KM Retail, the continued oversight of environmental and safety issues by other agencies in B.C. and Canada, and the ongoing supervisory authority and sanction powers of the Commission, the Commission Panel determines that the Transactions will not have any foreseeable detrimental impact on the structural integrity of Terasen Utilities’ assets.

The Commission Panel sees value in the best practices review referred to by KMI at page 16 of Exhibit B-34 and, in the event the Transaction receives all of the necessary approvals and is completed, directs KMI to perform and file the results of this review with the Commission no later than one year from the completion date of the Transaction.

SUMMARY OF ASSURANCES MADE BY THE APPLICANT

The Inland Industrials encourage the Commission to document specific assurances made by the Applicant in its Decision so they can serve as the standards by which future activities involving TGI and affiliated entities may be measured (Exhibit C9-2).  The Commission Panel agrees this would be helpful.  Some of these assurances have already been referred to above but are reproduced again here.  Except for the ring-fencing conditions, the Commission Panel does not believe it need elevate other assurances to conditions for approval of the Transaction since in virtually all cases, the Commission has the power to consider these assurances in the context of its regular oversight and review of the Terasen Utilities.

Senior Management and Employees of Terasen Utilities:

“…KMI will take all reasonable steps to retain key Terasen staff and anticipates only some limited employee reductions to overlapping administrative functions in the Vancouver corporate office” (Exhibit B-33, p. 4).   

 “…KMI intends to retain key senior management and will continue to have local engineering, repair and operations employees” (Exhibit B-33, p. 4).   

“While KMI does not know specifically who Subco’s/Terasen’s Chair, CEO, CFO and Vice President of Canadian Operations will be following the closing of the Transaction, it is expected that such persons will be Canadians and that the operational management of the Terasen Utilities will remain in place following the closing of the Transaction” (Exhibit B-27, Response to Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter IR No. 2, p. 11).

Location of Headquarters for Terasen Utilities:

“The location of the headquarters of the Terasen Utilities will remain in Greater Vancouver” (Exhibit B-33, p. 4).

Customer Service:

“KMI has no intention or plans whatsoever to make any changes in the Terasen Utilities that would adversely
affect or be in any way detrimental to the ability of the Terasen Utilities to continue providing safe and reliable
service to their customers in compliance with all applicable safety and environmental laws and regulations”
(Exhibit B-34, p. 15)
“Customer care service arrangements for Terasen Gas will not change as a result of the Transaction” (Exhibit
B-33, p. 4).

44

“…KMI will provide, and/or will cause its subsidiaries and affiliates, including Terasen, to continue to provide, services to the Terasen Utilities in accordance with the terms and conditions of each of the Service Agreements, for the duration of the term of those agreements” (Exhibit B-34, pp. 12-13).   

“Under it’s [sic] 2004-2007 rate settlement, TGI is to maintain and report on a series of Service Quality Indicators (SQIs) and Directional Indicators. KMI is open to exploring the introduction of SQIs for TGV[I] similar to those at TGI” (Exhibit B-34, p. 15).

“Kinder Morgan will ensure that the needs and requirements of Terasen’s gas utility customers will be met” (Exhibit B-15, Response to Wessler IR No. 1, p. 3).

“Customer service delivery enhancements will be analyzed using sound business case techniques to ensure cost savings or service improvements that customers are willing to pay for would result on a sustainable basis” (Exhibit B-34, p. 16).

Environmental and Safety Management Practices:

“…[t]he pipeline integrity management programs and the rigorous distribution integrity management program will continue to be managed and maintained by the management team for the Terasen Utilities into the future” (Exhibit B-34, p. 16).

 “… changes to existing pipeline integrity management programs and policies would be made, as they would be made without this Transaction, only if justified from a safety, reliability, and efficiency standpoint, and only if in compliance with statutes and regulations and after appropriate consultation with the Commission” (Exhibit B-34,

p. 13).

“The Kinder Morgan management and other personnel who would be involved with the Terasen Utilities will be those individuals who have responsibility for KM Retail’s environmental health and safety program and gas utility business operations, and who have been responsible for KM Retail’s excellent safety and environmental record over the years” (Exhibit B-16, Response to LMLGUA and CEC IR No. 1, p. 9).

“NO [sic] changes will be made in the current operations, practices, personnel, or other facets of the Terasen utilities that would adversely affect safety or environmental compliance” (Exhibit B-26, Response to LMLGUA and CEC IR No. 2, p. 3).

45

Organization Structure and Management Practices:

“KMI is not planning to implement any material organizational changes in the Terasen Utilities, and certainly none that would detrimentally affect the operations, relationships and practices that Terasen has established” (Exhibit B-9, Response to MEMPR IR No. 1, p. 16).

“…[KMI] will examine opportunities for best practice enhancements to operations, relationships and practices of the Terasen Utilities after the Transaction” (Exhibit B-34, p. 16).

Finances:

“KMI acknowledges that it does not intend to apply to recover from Terasen Gas utilities ratepayers any premium that it may be paying for the acquisition of the shares of Terasen Inc.” (Exhibit B-16, p. 14).

“…KMI confirms that none of the Terasen Utilities will be obligated, now or in the future, to guarantee the debt obligations of KMI, Subco, or any KMI affiliates” (Exhibit B-34, p. 10).

“No Transaction related costs are or will be passed on to utility rate payers.  Any time being spent by utility employees in support of the Transaction and/or application before the BCUC is being cross charged to Terasen Inc. in accordance with the Commission approved transfer pricing policy thereby conferring a benefit on ratepayers” (Exhibit B-26, Response to LMLGUA and CEC IR No. 2, p. 4).

“Transaction related costs will be borne by the parties to the Transaction, i.e.  Terasen Inc. and KMI” (Exhibit B-28, Response to MEMPR IR No. 2, p. 6).

“The cash that each of KMI and KMP is committed to returning to its shareholders and unit holders respectively is the excess cash that remains after all expenses and sustaining capital expenditures are made, all debt repayments to maintain a strong balance sheet are made, and all satisfactory capital expansion projects are addressed” (Exhibit B-9, Response to MEMPR IR No. 1, p. 6)

Governance:

“Following the closing, the Boards of Subco, Terasen and the resulting entity from the amalgamation of Subco and Terasen are expected to have a majority of Canadian members” (Exhibit B-27, Response to Council of

46

Canadians, Powell River Chapter IR No. 2, p. 11).

“Compliance with the Code of Conduct and Transfer Pricing Policy will continue, including an independent review by Terasen’s Internal Audit department” (Exhibit B-34, p. 16).

“KMI, in consultation with the management of the Terasen Utilities, will continue to ensure that the Terasen Utilities keep the Commission informed and involved in those areas that would have significant impacts on the customer” (Exhibit B-34, p. 16).

Natural Gas Resources / Exports:

“Kinder Morgan [KMI] does not plan to invest in natural resources” (Exhibit B-12, Response to Council of Canadians, Powell River Chapter IR No. 1, p. 5).

“The Transaction will not result in the natural gas supplies purchased by Terasen being diverted to markets in the United States” (Exhibit B-15, Response to Wessler IR No. 1, p. 2).

COMMISSION DECISION, CONDITIONS AND DIRECTIONS

7.1

Approval of the Transaction

On August 17, 2005 KMI applied to the Commission for approval to acquire the shares of Terasen and an indirect acquisition of the Terasen Utilities. As a result of the written process established to consider the KMI Application, 36 individuals or organizations registered to participate as Intervenors, many of whom filed information requests and submissions.  In addition, more than 8,000 letters of comment were filed by the October 14 deadline, as further discussed in Chapter 3.2 of this Decision.

The Commission Panel is fully conscious of and appreciates the degree of sincere public concern related to the Transaction and transfer of ownership of the energy transportation and natural gas and propane distribution subsidiaries of Terasen in B.C. to KMI, a U.S.-based corporation.  The services provided by the Terasen Utilities are vital and integral to the residents and businesses of B.C. and are regulated by the Commission in accordance with its authority and powers under the Utilities Commission Act (“UCA”).

As noted above in Chapters 3.2 and 4.3.3, many concerns related to the Transaction appear to be based on misunderstandings about the existing ownership and structure of Terasen, the structure of the natural gas market in B.C., and the authority of the Commission over public utilities operating in B.C.  The Commission’s review of KMI’s application extends only to Terasen’s ownership of regulated public utilities in B.C. and must be conducted in accordance with the Commission’s jurisdiction and mandate under the Utilities Commission Act.

Because the Terasen Utilities would continue as separate corporate entities following the Transaction, the Commission Panel concludes that the Transaction does not involve the disposition of property as contemplated by Section 52, nor the consolidation, amalgamation or merger of a utility with another person as contemplated by Section 53. The Commission Panel finds, therefore, that the Application is appropriately brought and considered under Section 54 of the UCA as a Transaction involving a “reviewable interest” within the context of that provision (where KMI would own or control 100 percent of the voting shares of the Terasen Utilities).

Section 54 provides that that the Commission may give its approval of the KMI Application, subject to conditions and requirements it considers necessary or desirable in the public interest, but the Commission must not give its approval unless it considers that the public utility and the users of the services of the public utility will not be detrimentally affected.

48

The Commission Panel has considered the criteria established in its previous decisions and in the context of the submissions and issues and concerns raised and concludes that the relevant criteria for evaluating the impacts of this Application are as follows:

(a)

the utility’s current and future ability to raise equity and debt financing not be reduced or impaired;

(b)

there be no violation of existing covenants that will be detrimental to the customers;

(c)

the conduct of the utility’s business, including the level of service, either now or in the future, will be maintained or enhanced;

(d)

the application is in compliance with appropriate enactments and/or regulations;

(e)

the structural integrity of the assets will be maintained in such a manner as to not impair utility service; and

(f)

the public interest will be preserved.

With respect to the preservation of the public interest, the Commission Panel concludes that the public interest is not a broad, open-ended examination of any issue raised by an Intervenor or in a letter of comment, but rather is defined by the Commission’s statutory mandate and its determination of relevant issues.  Issues, therefore, such as trade disputes, employment impacts and tax impacts, as discussed in Chapter 4.3, for example, are outside the Commission’s jurisdiction and authority and are thus beyond the scope of this review. Foreign ownership is not an issue in and of itself but only to the extent that new ownership could have a detrimental impact, for example, where the credit rating of the parent could affect the financing capability of its new subsidiaries.  The Commission Panel finds that criteria (a) through (e) above adequately capture many of the relevant concerns raised and the key iss ues it must consider related to KMI’s Application.  Criterion (f) also provides an opportunity to weigh any impacts identified in criteria (a) through (e) in order to make an overall determination of whether the Application preserves the public interest.

Having determined that the above criteria cover the key public interest considerations relevant to its review of the Transaction and after reviewing the potential impacts of the Transaction in relation to these criteria, the Commission Panel finds that, in view of the assurances provided by KMI and with certain conditions and directions discussed previously and described below, the Transaction will not have a detrimental impact on the public interest.

In this light, and most significantly, it is critical to recognize that the Commission’s ongoing regulation of the Terasen Utilities will not change as a result of the Transaction.  The Commission has very broad supervisory powers and authority under the Utilities Commission Act to regulate the Terasen Utilities, particularly with respect

49

to rates charged to customers for services and the quality of those services.  As acknowledged by KMI, the Commission also has sanction powers to ensure compliance with Commission requirements.  The Commission has in place established guidelines and procedures, and will to continue to monitor and enforce them, to ensure that the current standards are maintained and that there is no detriment as a result of this Transaction.   

7.2

Conditions

As noted above, the Commission may attach conditions to an approval under Section 54 that it considers necessary and desirable for the public interest.  The Commission Panel has determined that the following conditions should be attached to approval of the Transaction.

7.2.1

Ring-Fencing

KMI recognized the importance of the ‘credit rating risk analysis and ring-fencing’ criteria for evaluating the Transaction’s impact on the Terasen Utilities and acknowledged that a downgrade in TGI’s credit rating resulting from the Transaction could increase the costs of borrowing and the cost of service to ratepayers.  KMI, therefore, proposed ring-fencing conditions to insulate TGI from credit rating downgrades and related financial risks associated with any affiliates in the larger Terasen/KMI corporate family.  After reviewing the ring-fencing conditions proposed by KMI, its responses to information requests and the submissions of Intervenors related thereto, the Commission Panel has revised the ring-fencing conditions.  The ring-fencing conditions approved by the Commission Panel are as follows:   

(1)

Each Terasen Utility shall maintain, on a basis consistent with BCUC orders and accounting practices, a percentage of common equity to total capital that is at least as much as that determined by the Commission from time to time for ratemaking purposes.

(2)

No Terasen Utility will pay a common dividend without prior Commission approval if the result would reasonably be expected to violate the restriction in (1) above.

(3)

(a)

No Terasen Utility will lend to, guarantee or financially support any affiliates of the Terasen Utilities,

other than between TGI and TGS, or as otherwise accepted by the Commission.

(b)

TGI and TGS shall together maintain separate banking and cash management arrangements from

other affiliates. TGVI shall establish separate banking and cash management arrangements from

other affiliates once it has completed its proposed refinancing.

50

(c)

No Terasen Utility will enter into a tax sharing agreement with any affiliate of the Terasen Utility, unless the agreement has been approved by the Commission.

4)

No Terasen Utility will enter into transactions with affiliates that are not in compliance with Commission guidelines, policies or directives regarding affiliate transactions, and no Terasen Utility will enter into transactions with affiliates on terms less favourable to the Terasen Utility than those available from third parties on an arms-length basis, unless otherwise approved by the Commission.

5)

No Terasen Utility will engage in, provide financial support to or guarantee non-regulated businesses, unless otherwise approved by the Commission.

These conditions may be revised and/or supplemented in future by the Commission as required to protect the public interest.

7.2.2

Governance

The Commission Panel finds that the Terasen Utilities should be required to maintain existing governance policies and that any changes in these policies should be approved by the Commission.  In particular, the Commission Panel concludes that the continued independence of Directors, as required in existing governance policies, will provide a further assurance that the Terasen Utilities will comply with the ring-fencing conditions.

7.2.3

Location of Functions and Data

In order to address privacy concerns and other concerns, the Commission Panel determines that it would be appropriate to attach a condition to approval of the Transaction that requires KMI not to change the geographic location of any existing functions or data currently in TGI’s service area without prior approval of the Commission.

7.3

Directions

The Commission Panel sees value in the best practices review referred to by KMI at page 16 of Exhibit B-34 and, in the event the Transaction receives all of the necessary approvals and is completed, directs KMI to perform and file the results of this review with the Commission no later than one year from the completion date of the Transaction.
