GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

19. SHIPPER'S FAILURE TO COMPLY WITH TERMS

Transporter shall not be required to perform service under any

transportation rate schedule included in this Volume No. 1 if

Shipper fails to comply with the terms of its transportation

service agreement and the General Terms and Conditions.

20. SYSTEM OPERATION

Transporter may take such action as reasonably necessary to

prevent damage to or material deterioration of its transmission

system and to maintain the operational integrity of the system.

21. ANNUAL CHARGE ADJUSTMENT PROVISION

21.1 PURPOSE. Transporter is assessed an annual

charge by the FERC to reimburse the United States

Treasury for costs incurred by the Commission, other

than costs incurred in administering Part I of the Federal

Power Act, and costs not covered by filing fees. To

enable Transporter to recover his annual charge, pursuant

to 18 C.F.R. 154.38(d)(6), this section establishes an

Annual Charge Adjustment to be applicable to all of

Transporter's rate schedules as set forth in the Statement

of Rates of this FERC Gas Tariff, Volume No. 1.

21.2 BASIS OF ANNUAL CHARGE ADJUSTMENT. The rate

schedules specified in the Statement of Rates of this

tariff shall include an increment for an Annual Charge

Adjustment. Such adjustment shall be a base increment,

specified by the Commission at the time the Commission

calculates the annual charge bills, and adjusted to

Transporter's pressure base and heat content, if required.

21.3 ACCOUNTING PROCEDURE. Transporter will account for

annual charges paid by charging the amount to Account No.

928, Regulatory Commission Expenses, of the Commission's

Uniform System of Accounts. It is Transporter's intent

not to recover any annual charges recorded in FERC Account

No. 928 in an NGA section 4 rate case.

21.4 FILING PROCEDURE. Filing by the Transporter to

change the Annual Charge Adjustment shall be made at

least 30 days prior to the proposed effective date, with

such period inclusive of 30 days' notice, unless, for

good cause shown, lesser periods are allowed by valid

Commission order. Any filing by Transporter pursuant to

this 21 shall not become effective until Transporter

has made payment of the annual charge and such filing

has been approved by the Commission.
