3. RATES AND FUEL
3.1 The maximum and minimum rates for service under this rate schedule are shown on the
currently effective Sheet No. 21 of Volume No. 1 of this Tariff. Buyer shall pay such
maximum rates for service under this rate schedule unless Seller, in its sole
judgment, agrees to discount its rate to Buyer; provided however, Buyer and Seller may
mutually agree to a negotiated rate, which rate shall be less than, equal to, or
greater than Seller's maximum rate, shall not be less than the minimum rate, and may
be based upon a rate design other than Straight Fixed Variable (SFV). Such negotiated
rate shall be set forth in the executed service agreement.
3.2 For purposes of capacity release, the Demand and Capacity Quantity charges payable by
Buyer shall be at a rate set forth in the applicable capacity release award posted on
1Line consistent with the provisions of Section 42 of the General Terms and
Conditions. The maximum and minimum rates for service are shown on the effective
Sheet No. 21 of Volume No. 1 of this Tariff, however, for releases that become
effective on or after July 30, 2008, the maximum rate ceiling does not apply to such
releases provided the release is for a term of one year or less and the release is to
take effect on or before one year from the date on which the pipeline is notified of
the release. The rate paid in any capacity release transaction not subject to the
maximum rate ceiling will not be subject to refund.
3.3 For natural gas storage service rendered by Seller under this rate schedule, Buyer
shall pay Seller for each day of each month the sum of the following amounts:
(a) Demand Charge: A charge per day per dt of Liquefaction Demand. If Buyer
acquires storage capacity through a volumetric storage release, the demand charge
shall be the rate set forth in the applicable capacity release award posted on
1Line multiplied by the allocated withdrawal quantity (up to the contract maximum
daily withdrawal quantity for each day); provided, however, Buyer's monthly bill
may be subject to adjustment to account for any minimum volumetric commitment
specified in such capacity release award.
(b) Capacity Charge: A charge per day per dt of Liquefaction Capacity Quantity. If
Buyer acquires storage capacity through a volumetric storage release, the
Capacity Charge shall be the rate set forth in the applicable capacity release
award posted on 1Line multiplied by the end of day storage balance.
(c) Quantity Injected Charge: A charge per dt for gas delivered into storage for
Buyer's account.
(d) Quantity Withdrawn Charge: A charge per dt for gas withdrawn from storage for
Buyer's account.
3.4 Seller shall retain from Buyer's nominated storage injections (returns) a percentage
or percentages as compensation for fuel and gas otherwise used, or lost and
unaccounted for, in Seller's operations. Such percentage(s) is specified in the
currently effective Sheet No. 28 of Volume No. 1 of this Tariff.
