reconciliation filing as referenced in Section 35 of these General
Terms and Conditions and as follows:

Transporter for any costs it has incurred (including any
compensation Transporter agreed to provide for voluntary
actions and any storage injection or withdrawal charges not
collected because of the waiver of the injection and
withdrawal charges as described in Section 29.6) to
alleviate the conditions which resulted in issuance of the
Directional Notice or in declaration of the Critical Time
Operational Flow Order.
(b) Then, any remaining amounts will be refunded to all
Complying Shippers and other Shippers that did not incur

29.10 STANDARDS
(a) In issuing Directional Notices, Critical Time Operational
Flow Orders or taking other operational control action under
this Section, Transporter shall apply consistent and
objective engineering and operational criteria to define the
overall operational integrity of the system and acceptable
pressure levels to be maintained, to evaluate the imminent
nature of any threat to these factors, and to determine what
steps are necessary to preserve such factors. Such criteria
may be changed from time to time as operating experience
indicates.
