GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
13. FUEL AND LOSS REIMBURSEMENT (Cont'd)
The current charge portion of the storage fuel reimbursement
percentage shall be calculated each year based on the actual
storage fuel divided by the most recent three year average of
actual customer storage injections.
The surcharge portion of the storage fuel reimbursement percentage
shall be calculated by dividing the over or under collections by
the most recent three-year average of actual customer storage
injections. Over or under recovery of storage fuel is calculated
by comparing the actual storage fuel incurred during the preceding
twelve-month period (January through December) to the quantity of
gas retained under the current charge portion of the storage fuel
reimbursement percentage which was in effect during each month of
such period. The quantity retained is calculated by multiplying
the actual customer storage injections times the current charge
portion of the storage fuel reimbursement percentage in effect
during the calculation period.
The storage loss reimbursement percentage shall have two
components: a current charge and a surcharge.
Storage loss is calculated annually at the end of the injection
cycle based on shut-in pressure tests for each field taken at the
end of the withdrawal and injection cycles. If Southern Star
adjusts the results of the storage loss calculation for any field,
Southern Star shall include in its annual filing a request for
waiver, the original results of the storage loss calculation, the
adjusted storage loss and an explanation as to why the storage
loss for the field was adjusted.
Except as necessary to meet operational demands, SSC shall: (i)
perform the end-of-the-injection-cycle shut-in pressure test on
each field at the point in time when SSC reasonably believes the
field is at or near the highest inventory level that will be
achieved; and (ii) perform the end-of-the-withdrawal-cycle shut-
in pressure test on each field at the point in time when SSC
reasonably believes the field is at or near its lowest inventory
level that will be achieved. If operational demands
