GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
38.4 CAPACITY RELEASE REVENUE
Trailblazer and Shipper may agree hereunder to a
Negotiated Rate or Negotiated Rate Formula which includes payment
obligations or crediting mechanisms in the event of a capacity
release which vary from those set out in Section 19.13 of these
General Terms and Conditions. Nothing in the forgoing sentence,
however, shall authorize Trailblazer or Shipper to violate the
Commission's policy with respect to the negotiation of terms and
conditions of service.
38.5 Under this Section 38, Trailblazer may negotiate
the fuel retainage and surcharge components of its rates.
Trailblazer will protect Recourse Rate Shippers from subsidizing
Shippers paying negotiated fuel retainage and surcharge amounts as
set out in this Section 38.5. The separate accounting under Section
38.3 hereof will include separate accounting for fuel retainage and
surcharge amounts collected and a comparison with the amounts which
would have been collected at the maximum rate levels for fuel
retainage and surcharges stated in Trailblazer's Tariff. In the
event that Trailblazer agrees as part of a Negotiated Rate or
Negotiated Rate Formula to assess fuel retainage or surcharge
amounts which are less than the amounts which would be collected at
the maximum rate level for such components stated in Trailblazer's
Tariff, Trailblazer will credit the maximum Recourse Rate surcharge
amounts to its surcharge accounts and will credit the maximum
Recourse Rate fuel retainage levels to its fuel retainage accounts;
provided, however, that Trailblazer is not required to include fuel
at maximum retainage levels if it can show that no fuel or less fuel
was used in providing the service.
