GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
30. DISCOUNTS
30.1 In the event that Tuscarora agrees to discount its maximum rates
under Rate Schedules FT, LFS, IT or PL, Tuscarora and Shipper
may agree to the types of discounts specified herein without
such discounts constituting a material deviation from
Tuscarora's pro forma service agreement. Tuscarora and Shipper
may agree that a specified discounted rate will apply:
(i) only to specified quantities under the service agreement;
(ii) only if specified quantities are achieved or only with
respect to quantities below a specified level;
(iii)only during specified periods of the year or for a
specifically defined period;
(iv) only to specified points, combination of points, markets,
transportation paths or other defined geographic area(s);
(v) only in a specified relationship to the quantities actually
delivered (i.e., that the reservation charge will be
adjusted in a specified relationship to quantities actually
delivered). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no discounted
rate shall be less than the applicable minimum rate; and/or
(vi) a formula including, but not limited to, published index
prices for specific receipt and/or delivery points or other
agreed upon published pricing reference points for price
determination (such discounted rate may be based upon the
differential between published index prices or arrived at
by formula). Such discounted rate: (1) shall not change the
underlying rate design; (2) shall not include any minimum
bill or minimum take provision that has the effect of
guaranteeing revenue; and (3) shall, in each service
agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 30.1(vi),
define the rate component(s) to be discounted.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the discounted rate shall be
between the maximum rate and the minimum rate applicable to the
service provided.
