and its fuel retention mechanism, including the allocation percentages
and methodologies that underlie the fuel retention percentages, shall

provisions of Article XI of the RP00-632 Settlement.
16.3 The RP00-632 Settlement allows Pipeline to collect 7.1 MMDt as an

to Rate Schedule GSS, ISS, and MCS(balancing) ("storage
customers") and 5.2895 MMDt to Rate Schedule FT, FTNN, IT, and

file a report detailing the actual quantities collected under the

each of the system fuel retention percentages fixed by the RP00-632
Settlement.
