RATE SCHEDULE OPAS

Operator Point Aggregation Service

1. AVAILABILITY

This Rate Schedule is available to any DP Operator that currently

receives or will receive gas from Transporter at multiple individual

delivery meters that meet the requirements of Section 5.7(b) of the GT&C.

This rate schedule does not apply to transportation service at a single

meter or a collection of meter runs at a single location. This service

permits the Transporter to use the aggregation of individual delivery

meters into D-Codes provided for under this rate schedule for purposes of

nominations, scheduling, allocations and invoicing under TSAs. Operator

Point Aggregation Service will be provided by Transporter when:

1.1 Transporter and a DP Operator mutually agree to: (i) the aggregation

of individual delivery meters into D-Codes; (ii) an MDO and an MHO

at each delivery meter within each such D-Code; and (iii) such other

conditions as may be necessary to ensure the reliability of firm

service to all Shippers; and

1.2 Transportation service to delivery meters is accomplished through

Rate Schedules FT-1, FT-2, FTH-V, FT-H, NNTD, NNTH and IT-1.

1.3 The Operator has executed an Operator Point Aggregation Service

Agreement ("OPASA") in the form contained in this Tariff for service

under this Rate Schedule.

2. APPLICABILITY AND CHARACTER OF SERVICE

2.1 This Rate Schedule shall apply to all nominating, scheduling,

allocation and invoicing activity provided by Transporter under any

TSA for transportation service at a D-Code, when that D-Code is

covered by an effective OPASA.

2.2 Service hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of the executed

OPASA and to the GT&C incorporated herein by reference.

2.3 Service hereunder shall consist of the aggregation by Transporter at

the D-Code level, for the purposes of nominating, scheduling,

allocation and invoicing, of the quantities of Natural Gas delivered

to any of the individual delivery meters within a D-Code on behalf of

the DP Operator and/or any other Shipper requesting transportation at

such delivery meters/D-Codes pursuant to any TSA. DP Operators shall
