combination thereof which includes the use of facilities functionalized on
Transporter's books as transmission and/or storage.
1.65 The term "Transporter" shall mean ANR Pipeline Company.
1.66 The term "Transporter's Pipeline System" shall mean those facilities of Transporter
which are Mainline Area Facilities, Southwest Area Facilities or Southeast Area
Facilities.
1.67 The term "Transporter's Use" shall mean the quantity of Gas required by Transporter
for (1) compressor fuel and (2) lost-and-unaccounted for ("L&U") Gas for service
under each Agreement, and shall be equal to the Transporter's Use (%) under each such
Agreement times Receipt Point quantities tendered to Transporter.
1.67A The term "Transporter's EPC" shall mean the dollar amount required by Transporter to
recover the cost of electric power purchased, including surcharges, by or for
Transporter for use in the operation of electric powered compressor units, and shall
be equal to the EPC Charge times Delivery Point quantities.
1.68 The term "Transporter's Use (%)" shall mean the applicable percentage of Transporter's
Use, as specified in the Agreement, which shall be an allocable amount of Transporter's
Use. The term "EPC Charge" shall mean the rates in $ per Dth applicable to
Transporter's rate schedules, and shall be equal to an allocable amount of Transporter's
EPC. The Transporter's Use (%) and the EPC Charge shall be calculated by Transporter by
appropriate engineering principles and shall include consideration of the distance of
Transportation, provided, however, that no Transporter's Use (%) or EPC Charge shall be
assessed on Backhaul Transportation. Except as otherwise noted herein and in Section 37
of these General Terms and Conditions, the determination of Transporter's Use (%) and
EPC Charge in each of Transporter's annual redetermination filings, shall be based upon
the transactional throughput methodology set forth in Transporter's December 4, 1997
filing in Docket No. TM97-2-48-001 as accepted by Order of the Commission dated December
31, 1997, as further amended in the December 26, 2001 Stipulation and Agreement in
Docket No. RP01-259-000. For purposes of computing the Current Fuel Use (%) and the
Annual Transporter's Use Adjustment (%) pursuant to Section 37 of these General Terms
and Conditions, the fuel use associated with the CenterPoint Energy Gas Transmission
Company ("CenterPoint") (formerly Arkla) transportation contract described in Section 29
of these General Terms and Conditions ("CenterPoint Contract") shall be allocated pro
rata between the Southeast and Southwest Mainline Areas based upon the volumes delivered
under the contract to each respective area. For purposes of computing the Current Fuel
Use (%), the Annual Transporter's Use Adjustment (%), the Current EPC Charge and the
Annual EPC Charge Adjustment pursuant to Section 37 of these General Terms and
Conditions, the transactional throughput of the respective Mainline Area Facilities
shall be adjusted based upon the direction of flow of the net physical throughput under
the CenterPoint Contract such that the transactional throughput of the Mainline Area
Facilities with the net physical increase in volume shall be increased by such net
physical increase and an offsetting decrease in the transactional throughput shall be
made to the opposite Mainline Area Facilities. Transporter will include in each of its
annual filings pursuant to Section 37 of these General Terms and Conditions information
supporting the allocation of fuel use and direction of flow of the net physical
throughput between Transporter's Southeast and Southwest Mainline Areas under the
CenterPoint Contract.
1.69 The term "Winter Period" shall mean the period from November 1 of each calendar year
through March 31 of the following calendar year.
