RATE SCHEDULE FT
FIRM TRANSPORTATION SERVICE
___________________________
1. AVAILABILITY
This rate schedule is available to any person, corporation, partnership or any other party
(hereinafter referred to as "Shipper") for the Transportation of gas by Great Lakes Gas
Transmission Limited Partnership (hereinafter referred to as "Transporter"), when:
(a) Transporter has determined that it has sufficient available and uncommitted capacity to
perform firm Transportation Service requested by Shipper; and
(b) Shipper and Transporter have executed a Transportation Service Agreement (Agreement),
either in the form prescribed under this Rate Schedule FT, or in the form of an Award
Acknowledgment as prescribed under this FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, for
firm Transportation Service under this rate schedule.
2. APPLICABILITY AND CHARACTER OF SERVICE
Transporter shall accept for the account of Shipper at the point(s) of receipt on any Day the
quantity of gas tendered by or for the account of Shipper; provided, however, that Transporter
shall not be obligated to receive on any Day a quantity of gas in excess of the applicable MDQ
specified in the Agreement plus applicable Transporter's Use as determined in Section 27 of the
General Terms & Conditions of this FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1. Upon receipt
of such gas for Shipper's account, Transporter shall transport and deliver for the account of
Shipper an Equivalent Quantity of gas at the point(s) of delivery; provided however, that
Transporter shall not be obligated to deliver at any point of delivery on any Day a quantity of
gas in excess of the quantity specified in the Agreement applicable for each delivery point.
Shipper's MDQ shall be a uniform quantity throughout the term of the Agreement, except that
Transporter may, on a not unduly discriminatory basis, agree to certain differing levels in
Shipper's MDQ for specified periods throughout the term of the Agreement. Shipper's MDQ, along
with the effective period of such differing MDQ levels, shall be specified in Appendix A of the
Agreement.
Further, if Shipper had authorization from the Commission under Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act
(other than under Transporter's FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1) to transport
overrun gas and that Transportation Service has been converted to service under this Rate
Schedule FT, then subject to the priorities and reductions contained in Section 11 of the
General Terms and Conditions of this FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, and subject
to the Shipper's Agreement under this Rate Schedule FT, the Shipper may transport the overrun
quantities that are set forth in that Agreement.
Service shall commence under this rate schedule on the earlier of: (i) the date Shipper first
tenders gas to Transporter for Transportation under the Agreement; or (ii) the first Day of the
Month following the Shipper's execution of the Agreement; (iii) or such other date as is
mutually agreed to by the parties, but in no event prior to Transporter's receipt and acceptance
of any necessary regulatory authorization to provide firm Transportation Service to Shipper in
accordance with the terms of this rate schedule and the Agreement.
Transporter and Shipper may agree, on a not unduly discriminatory basis, to contract extensions,
including evergreens, rollovers and other extensions. Any such contract extension provision
shall be specified in the Term of the Agreement.
Transportation Service rendered under this rate schedule shall be firm, up to the MDQ on any
Day, and shall not be subject to interruption except as provided for elsewhere in this FERC Gas
Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1. The MDQ shall be specified in the Agreement, and shall be
a quantity sufficient to avoid measurement difficulties relative to small amounts of gas.
