B.C Electric seeks additional profit gouge’ from utility users” The B.C. Electric has applied to the Supreme Court of Canada for .a decision of the pockets of utility users.

Electric is seeking higher pro- The issue in a nutshell is as follows: Under the Public Utilities Act the Public Utilities Com- mission is allowed-to fix what is called the ‘fair rate of re- turn.” This is supposed to be the top profit allowed the B.C. Electric on its capital invest- ment: This rate is now fixed by the PUC at six et: a half percent. In all its applications before the PUC the B.C. Electric representatives have argued that it is entitled to the full six and a half percent and that the PUC is required to grant profits up to that level. Act- ing under public pressure the PUC did not grant the full “rate of return’ although it allowed the B.C. Electric huge profits on its deliberately ex- tended capital structure. Last year the PUC asked the B.C. Appeals Court for a rul- ing on whether it is required under the Act to grant the B.C. Electric the full six and a half precent profit, Early in December the Appeals Court ruled that the PUC is not | re- quired to do so. This decision is being strongly fought by the profit- grasping utility monopoly.. It has appealed to the federal courts hoping that reactionary ‘lwhich if decided in favor of the company will take additional millions of dollars out influence nationally will result in a decision in its favor.
