3. RATES AND CHARGES
3.1 The maximum and minimum rates for service under this Rate Schedule are shown on the
currently effective Sheet No. 22 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. Such discount may be granted
consistent with the applicable provisions of Section 40 of the General Terms and
Conditions. Further, Buyer and Seller may mutually agree to a negotiated rate
pursuant to the provisions of Section 53 of the General Terms and Conditions. Such
negotiated rate shall be set forth in the executed Service Agreement.
3.2 For purposes of capacity release, the Demand and Storage 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. 22 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 to Buyer 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 Storage 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) Storage Capacity Quantity Charge: A charge per day per dt of Storage Capacity
Quantity. If Buyer acquires storage capacity through a volumetric storage
release, the Storage Capacity Quantity 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 Withdrawal Charge: A charge per dt for gas withdrawn from storage for
Buyer's account.
