36. TAKE-OR-PAY BUYOUT AND BUYDOWN COST RECOVERY MECHANISM
(For Filings Submitted to FERC Prior to November 1, 1990) (Continued)
36.3.3 Determination of Throughput Surcharge - The throughput
surcharge for the total recovery period shall be calculated to
recover a percentage to be determined by Transporter of the
amortized amount. The throughput surcharge shall be determined by
dividing the annual principal amount of the costs to be recovered
through the surcharge, plus carrying charges in accordance with
Section 154.501 of the FERC's Regulations, by the effective total
throughput. Such surcharge rate will be specified, as applicable,
on tariff sheets contained in Transporter's FERC Gas Tariff,
Second Revised Volume No. 1. Such rate will be in effect until
adjusted in accordance with Subsection 36.3.4. The throughput
surcharge shall be assessed to all Shippers subject to
Transporter's applicable transportation rates and/or Rate
Schedules contained in Transporter's FERC Gas Tariff, Second
Revised Volume No. 1.
Transporter may from time to time, and at any time, selectively
and separately discount any or all of the throughput surcharge
applicable to transportation service for any Shipper receiving
service pursuant to Part 284 of the FERC's Regulations from
Transporter under its FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No.
1. Such discounting, however, shall be in accordance with Section
284.7(c)(5) of the FERC's Regulations. The maximum throughput
surcharge shall be stated on Sheet Nos. 15, 18 and 21 of
Transporter's FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1. The
minimum rate for each such throughput surcharge is zero.
36.3.4 Annual Throughput Surcharge Reconciliation - On or
before May 31 of each year, commencing on May 31, 1991,
Transporter shall recalculate the throughput surcharge to reflect
revisions for the actual FERC published interest rates during the
recovery period ending the preceding March 31 applied to actual
buyout/buydown payments made by Transporter, reduced, as
applicable, to reflect interest owed by Transporter to Shipper(s)
on buyout/buydown costs collected from Shipper(s)
