GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(CONTINUED)
22.2 Transporter may waive from time to time, at its discretion,
all or a portion of the monetary reimbursement requirement
set forth in Section 22.1 if it determines that construction
of the facilities would be economic to Transporter, based on
Shipper assurance of Transportation throughput through the
proposed facilities and other matters, as described below.
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 economic, Transporter will
evaluate projects on the basis of various economic criteria,
which may include, without limitation, the estimated
Transportation throughput, cost of the facilities,
operating, maintenance, administrative and general expenses
attributable to the facilities, the system net revenues
Transporter estimates will be generated subsequent to such
construction, and the availability of capital funds on terms
and conditions acceptable to Transporter. In estimating the
system net revenues to be generated, Transporter will
evaluate the existence of capacity limitations of the
existing facilities, the marketability of the capacity, the
location of the markets, the nature of the Transportation
service, and other factors which impact the utilization of
Transporter's system.
22.3 Any monetary reimbursement due Transporter by Shipper
pursuant to this Section 22 shall be due and payable to
Transporter prior to Transporter's commencement of
construction of facilities to be constructed unless
otherwise agreed by Transporter and within ten (10) Days of
receipt by Shipper of Transporter's invoice(s) for same;
provided, however, subject to Transporter's written consent,
such monetary reimbursement, plus carrying charges thereon,
may be amortized over a mutually agreeable period not to
exceed the primary contract term of any Agreement for
service between Transporter and Shipper. Carrying charges
shall be computed utilizing interest factors acceptable to
both Transporter and Shipper. Unless Transporter and
Shipper otherwise agree on interest factors for computing
the carrying charges for new facilities, the interest rates
determined by the Commission under Section 154.501(d) of the
Commission's regulations shall apply.
