binding order of any court or governmental authority, and

any other cause, whether of the kind herein enumerated or

otherwise, not within the control of the one claiming

unable to prevent or overcome. Failure to prevent or

settle any strike or strikes shall not be considered a

matter within the control of the party claiming suspension.

14.2 Such causes or contingencies affecting performance shall

not relieve Western or Buyer or Shipper of liability in the

event of failure of either to use due diligence to remedy

the situation and to remove the cause in an adequate manner

and with all reasonable dispatch, nor shall such causes and

contingencies relieve either from its obligation to make

payments of amounts then due hereunder.

15.1 Right of Western to Serve Others - Nothing in these General

Terms and Conditions, this FERC Gas Tariff, any Rate

Schedule, or any Service Agreement executed by Western and

shall not unreasonably discriminate against existing or

future Buyers or Shippers.

15.2 General - It is recognized that Western's capacity may be

is possible.
