GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

35. RESERVATION OF CAPACITY FOR EXPANSION/EXTENSION PROJECTS
Transporter may elect to reserve capacity required for a future
expansion/extension project out of unsubscribed capacity or
capacity under expiring Service Agreements where such Service
Agreements do not have a right of first refusal or Shipper does not
exercise its right of first refusal. Transporter may only reserve
capacity for a future expansion/extension project for which an open
season has been or will be held within one year of the date that
Transporter posts such capacity as being reserved. Prior to
reserving capacity for an expansion/extension project, Transporter
shall first post for bid all of its available capacity on its Web
Site as set forth in Section 20 of the General Terms and Conditions
for a minimum of five (5) business days and award such capacity in
accordance with the terms of the posting.
Capacity may be reserved for expansion/extension projects only
during a 12-month period prior to Transporter filing for
certificate approval for construction or acquisition of proposed
expansion/extension facilities, and following the certificate
filing, only until all expansion/extension facilities related to
the certificate filing are placed into service.
If Transporter reserves capacity for an expansion/extension
project, it will notify Shippers of its intent as part of
Transporter's posting of capacity on its Web Site. Transporter's
posting for reserved capacity for future expansion/extension
projects shall include the following information: (a) a
description of the project for which the capacity will be reserved;
(b) the total quantity of capacity to be reserved; (c) the location
of the proposed reserved capacity on the pipeline system;
(d) whether, and if so when, Transporter anticipates that an open
season for the capacity will be held or the reserved capacity will
otherwise be posted for bids; (e) the projected in-service date of
new facilities; and (f) on an ongoing basis, how much of the
reserved capacity has been sold on a limited-term basis that would
otherwise be eligible for a right of first refusal. Transporter
will make reasonable efforts to update the reservation posting up
to the in-service date of the project to reflect any material
changes in the scope of the project.
