7. CONTRACTING FOR SERVICE RIGHTS
This Section 7 governs the order in which requests for
Transportation or Storage service rights shall be accommodated where
capacity is not available for all valid requests. It does not govern
scheduling, which is governed by Section 8 herein.
7.1 Order For Accommodating Firm Service Rights
(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 7.2 hereof,
as firm capacity becomes available for
(1) Transportation, (2) Storage from Field Area
Storage Facilities under Rate Schedule IOS, WS or FS,
or (3) Storage from Market Area Storage Facilities
under Rate Schedule WS, PS or FS, requests for firm
services shall be fulfilled first, commencing with
the requested service offering the greatest
economic value for the capacity available. If the
economic values, as determined below, of separate
service requests are equal, then service shall be
offered in sequence starting with the request for
such service with the earliest date. If separate
service requests have equal economic values and the
same date of request, service shall be offered to
such requests on a pro-rata basis.
(b) The economic value of request(s) for service rights
shall be the net present value of the reservation
charges, capacity charges and deliverability
charges that Shipper would pay at the rates Shipper
has requested, which shall not be less than the
Minimum Rate nor greater than the Maximum Rates as
stated on the currently effective Tariff Sheet
governing such service, over the term of service
specified in the request(s), utilizing as the
annual discount factor the overall rate of return
underlying Panhandle's currently effective rates.
For purposes of determining the economic value of
request(s) for service rights under Rate Schedule
SCT, the net present value will be determined using
the applicable reservation rate per Dt. under Rate
Schedule EFT at a load factor of 100%. Shippers
requesting service at a Negotiated Rate which
exceeds the Maximum Rate will be considered to be
paying the Maximum Rate for purposes of determining
the economic value of request(s) for service
rights.
