TRANSPORTATION GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
5. SERVICE CONDITIONS
5.1 Transporter and Shipper acknowledge that the Executed TSA does not
prohibit either party from selling or transferring its own
facilities; therefore, neither Transporter nor Shipper shall have
any obligation to provide services under the Executed TSA that
requires the use of any facilities sold or transferred; provided,
however, Transporter first shall seek abandonment authorization for
any jurisdictional facilities or jurisdictional services and
Shipper shall have the right to protest such abandonment as
inconsistent with the present or future public convenience and
necessity.
5.2 Unless otherwise provided in the Executed TSA, in the event
Transporter and Shipper agree in writing that additional facilities
are necessary in order to implement the service provided under the
Executed TSA, Shipper agrees to reimburse Transporter for all
expenditures associated with the construction and installation of
such facilities which shall be owned, operated and maintained by
Transporter.
5.3 Unless otherwise agreed to in writing, Transporter shall only be
responsible for the maintenance and operation of its own properties
and facilities and shall not be responsible for the maintenance or
operation of any other properties or facilities connected in any
way with the transportation of Natural Gas.
5.4 Transporter shall have the right to interrupt the transportation of
Natural Gas when necessary to test, alter, modify, enlarge or
repair any facility or property comprising a part of, or
appurtenant to, the El Paso System, or otherwise related to the
operation thereof. Transporter shall endeavor to cause a minimum
of inconvenience to Shipper and, except in cases of emergency,
shall give Shipper advance notice of its intention to so interrupt
the transportation of gas and of the expected magnitude of such
interruptions.
5.5 Transporter shall construct, replace, or recondition laterals (at
its own expense) to comply with contractual commitments, or to
conform to Department of Transportation Regulations or other safety
related requirements. Transporter shall also construct laterals, as
requested by a Shipper, when that Shipper has agreed to reimburse
Transporter for the construction and related costs. For purposes of
this Section 5.5, "laterals" mean any pipeline extension (other than
mainline extension) built from an existing pipeline facility to
deliver gas to one or more customers, including new Delivery Points
and enlargements or replacements of existing laterals.
