Enbridge Gas Inc. has applied to renew its natural gas franchise agreement and for a new certificate of public convenience and necessity for the Town of Mono.
Enbridge Gas Inc. (Enbridge Gas) is asking the Ontario Energy Board (OEB) for:
- An order approving the renewal of a natural gas franchise agreement with the Town of Mono. This would continue Enbridge Gas’s right to construct, operate and add to the natural gas distribution system and to distribute, store and transmit natural gas within the Town of Mono for the next 20 years.
- An order directing that the acceptance of the municipal electors of the Town of Mono is not required in relation to the by-law approving the natural gas franchise agreement.
- An order cancelling and superseding Enbridge Gas’s existing certificate of public convenience and necessity to construct works to supply gas in the Town of Mono and replacing it with
a new certificate. The new certificate is needed to address a municipal name change that was implemented in 1999 and to address municipal boundary changes associated with past annexations.
