from Shippers as an ACA surcharge the Commission’s annual

assessment of charges to Pipeline to recover the Commission’s

Pipeline shall recover the ACA by including in Pipeline’s

transportation rates a per unit surcharge, as stated in the

Commission to determine the annual assessment to Pipeline

adjusted, as appropriate, to a thermal basis. Pipeline shall

each October 1.

26.3 When Pipeline provides services to Shipper under multiple

transaction arrangements on Pipeline’s system, Pipeline will

notice requirements of 18 C.F.R. § 154.207, as necessary to
