GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
FOR TRANSPORTATION SERVICE
(cont'd)
26. POLICY WITH RESPECT TO FEES AND CONSTRUCTION OF NEW FACILITIES (cont'd)
26.2 Transporter may waive from time to time, at its discretion, all or a
portion of the facility cost reimbursement requirement set forth in
Section 26.1 if Shipper provides Transporter adequate assurances of
transportation throughput to make construction of the facilities
economical to Transporter. All requests for waiver shall be handled
by Transporter in a manner which is not unduly discriminatory. For
purposes of determining whether a project is economical, Transporter
will evaluate projects on the basis of various economic criteria,
which will include the estimated transportation throughput, cost of
the facilities, operating and maintenance as well as administrative
and general expenses attributable to the facilities, the revenues
Transporter estimates will be generated as a result of such construc-
tion, and the availability of capital funds on terms and conditions
acceptable to Transporter. In estimating the revenues to be gener-
ated, Transporter will evaluate the existence of capacity limitations
downstream of the facilities, the marketability of the capacity, the
location of the markets, the interruptible versus the firm nature of
the transportation service, and other similar factors which impact
whether the available deliverability will actually be transported.
