GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

37. CAPACITY RESERVED FOR EXPANSION PROJECTS.
37.1 Transporter may elect to reserve for future expansion projects,
any unsubscribed capacity or capacity under expiring or
terminating TSAs where such TSAs do not have a right of first
refusal (ROFR) or Shipper does not exercise its ROFR.
(a) Capacity may be reserved up to one year prior to Transporter
filing for certificate authority for construction of proposed
expansion facilities, and thereafter until all expansion
facilities related to the certificate filing are placed into
service.
(b) Transporter may only reserve capacity for a future expansion
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. Transporter will post said
capacity for at least five days before capacity can be
reserved. Transporter will not, absent Commission approval,
accept advance payments to reserve capacity under this Section
37.1.
(c) If Transporter elects to reserve capacity, it will notify
Shippers of its intent as part of its posting of capacity on
its EBB, and will post and award all available capacity before
reserving such capacity for the expansion in accordance with
the tariff requirements of the General Terms and Conditions
Section 34. Transporter's posting for reserved capacity for
future expansion projects shall include the following
information: (i) a description of the project for which the
capacity will be reserved; (ii) the total quantity of capacity
to be reserved; (iii) the location of the proposed reserved
capacity on the pipeline system; (iv) 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; (v) the projected in-service date of the new
facilities; and (vi) 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 ROFR. To the extent
Transporter has not already solicited turnback capacity, the
posting for reserved capacity shall also include a non-binding
solicitation for turnback capacity to serve the expansion
project, provided that Transporter shall post the non-binding
solicitation for turnback capacity no later than 90 Days after
the close of the expansion project open season specifying the
minimum term for a response to solicitation. Transporter
shall make reasonable efforts to update the posting up to the
in-service date of the project to reflect any material project
changes.
