STIPULATIONS OF THE ABOVE CAPACITIES
------------------------------------
1. Use the highest expected pressure when determining the minimum capacity.
2. These capacities do not consider restrictions and pressure losses associated with regulators and/or
piping configurations.
3. These volumes may only be used to determine capacities of existing meter stations. They should not
be used in designing or estimating new facilities. -------- ---
4. These capacities are valid for all existing meter stations.
---
5. Contact the Measurement Department if there are any exceptions or questions concerning these
capacities.
