ATCO's (TSX:ACO.X) (TSX:ACO.Y) indirectly owned subsidiary, ATCO Pipelines and
TransCanada Corporation's (TSX:TRP) (NYSE:TRP) (TransCanada) wholly owned
subsidiary, NOVA Gas Transmission Ltd. (NGTL), have reached a proposed agreement
to provide seamless natural gas transmission service to customers. The gas
transmission model will utilize a single suite of services to provide integrated
gas transmission service which is expected to add value for customers as a
result of seamless efficient service throughout Alberta.


Both ATCO Pipelines and NGTL have been encouraged by their regulator and by
customers to explore collaborative concepts designed to streamline the provision
of natural gas transmission service across Alberta and to address competitive
pipeline issues. The seamless gas transmission model is the result of this
process.


If approved by the regulator, the arrangement will see the two companies combine
physical assets under a single rates and services structure with a single
commercial interface with customers but with each company separately managing
assets within distinct operating territories in the province. It is expected
that the model will end duplicative tolling and operational activities and will
result in more efficient regulatory processes.


The Alberta Utilities Commission concurs with the two companies meeting with
representatives of the various customer groups. The objective of the discussions
is to evaluate the long-term benefits and to determine rate and system design
principles with the various groups for ultimate approval by the regulator.


ATCO Pipelines, a subsidiary of Canadian Utilities Limited and part of the ATCO
Group of Companies, provides natural gas transmission services to producers in
the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin, marketers, industrial customers and gas
distribution companies in Alberta. Additional information on ATCO Pipelines can
be found at www.atcopipelines.com.


ATCO Group, an Alberta-based worldwide organization of companies with assets of
approximately $8.5 billion and more than 7,800 employees, is comprised of three
main business divisions: Power Generation, Utilities (natural gas and
electricity transmission and distribution) and Global Enterprises (industrials,
technology, logistics and energy services). More information about ATCO Ltd. can
