Diesel Fuel Escalation Surcharge

Throughout the year fuel prices will be monitored for increases from the benchmark fuel price of $2.00/Litre. Base Rates will be increased by 1.5% for each 10 cent incremental change in the price of Diesel above the $2.00 Benchmark. Fuel prices will typically be reviewed every other Friday and any increase will remain in effect for a 2-week period. However, if there are significant changes to the price of Diesel or the price of fuel appears very volatile, fuel prices may be reviewed more frequently.
