Premier Brings PUB Back into Muskrat Falls

Premier Dwight Ball released the terms of reference for the Board of Commissioners of Public Utilities (PUB) to examine options to mitigate Muskrat Falls.

The reference questions announced by Premier Ball focus on:

• Options to reduce impacts of Muskrat Falls, including both cost savings and revenue opportunities involving the electricity-related activities of Nalcor Energy and its subsidiaries;

• The domestic need for Muskrat Falls power versus export availability; and,

• Quantifying the impact of the identified options.

The PUB will be asked to deliver an interim report by February 15, 2019 and a final report by January 31, 2020.
