GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
36. USE OF PENALTY FUNDS
All amounts collected by Canyon commencing November 1, 2001
for Unauthorized Overrun charges and amounts collected under the
cash-out provision of this tariff shall be allocated and
distributed to Canyon's customers. Any such charges for the
period of November 1, 2001 through the end of the year 2001 shall
be distributed within ninety (90) days after the end of 2001. For
each subsequent year commencing 2002 the distribution shall be
made within 90 days after the end of that year. Distribution
shall be made as set out in this Section 36.
36.1 These amounts will first be used to compensate Canyon
for any cash-out expenses and for any prudent and reasonable
actual incremental costs it has incurred to alleviate the
conditions which resulted in or were created by the unauthorized
overrun. If these amounts are not adequate to reimburse Canyon
for its cash-out expenses and costs, the unrecovered expenses
and/or costs shall be carried forward to future years until
recouped.
36.2 Any remaining amounts after the application of Section
36.1 shall be refunded to all Shippers, both firm and interruptible.
The refund will be made in the form of a credit to billings wherever
practicable. In calculating refunds, Canyon shall determine the
penalty revenue for each month of the year net of costs and expenses
under Section 36.1. For each month, such net amount shall be
refunded pro rata, based on the total reservation and commodity
charges paid that month, to all Shippers, excluding any Shipper
which had an Unauthorized Overrun that month. The total annual
refunds for any Shipper shall be the sum of the monthly refunds
allocated to that Shipper. Where capacity has been released,
amounts shall be distributed to the original Shipper, except in the
case of a permanent release where amounts shall be distributed to
the Replacement Shipper.
