GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued)
b. The sum of the Qualifying Costs adjusted for any overcollection or
undercollection from the prior period shall be divided by the sum of
(i) the actual throughput under Rate Schedules FTS, STS-1, and ITS
and, adjusted for any known and measurable changes, (ii) any point-
to-point throughput under Rate Schedule NOFT, for the 12-month
period ending December 31st to derive the PSCT surcharge to become
effective on April 1st of the following year.
c. Unless no change is proposed to the level of the PSCT surcharge,
Equitrans shall file revised Statement of Rates and/or tariff
sections on an annual basis to become effective on April 1st of each
year for the purpose of recalculating the PSCT surcharge.
38.5 Effect of Discounting. With regard to transportation services which are
discounted by Equitrans, the PSCT surcharge will be considered as being
discounted first, before other items included in the maximum rate levels
are impacted.
38.6 At the time Equitrans files any new base rate case under Section 4 of
the Natural Gas Act, or any time an investigation into Equitrans' base
rates is initiated under Section 5 of the Natural Gas Act, all
investment, associated depreciation, depreciation expense and deferred
income taxes included in the calculation of the surcharge as described
in Section 38.4a shall be rolled into base rates. Such rates shall be
effective as of the effective date of the rates approved in either of
such proceedings. Any historic over or under collections shall be
refunded or collected over the following one year period.
