GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued)
39. TRANSITION COST RECOVERY MECHANISMS (Continued)
Transporter may from time to time, and at any time,
selectively and separately discount any or all of the
GSR unit rate for any Applicable Interruptible Shipper.
Such discounting, however, shall be in accordance with
Section 284.7(c)(5) of the FERC's Regulations and
Subsection 21.6 of these General Terms and Conditions.
The maximum GSR unit rate shall be included in the
interruptible transportation rates shown on Sheet No.
18 of this Tariff. The minimum rate for such GSR unit
rate is zero.
39.3.4.4 Annual Rate Schedule IT-1 GSR Unit Rate
Reconciliation - This provision provides a true-up
mechanism to ensure that Transporter neither
overrecovers nor underrecovers the costs included in
the GSR unit rate. On or before May 31 of each year,
Transporter shall recalculate the GSR unit rate to
reflect revisions for the actual FERC published
interest rates during the recovery period ending the
preceding March 31 applied to the unamortized balance
of the interruptible portion of the actual GSR Costs
paid by Transporter, reduced, as applicable, to reflect
interest owed by Transporter to Applicable
Interruptible Shippers on GSR Costs collected from
Applicable Interruptible Shippers during such portion
of the recovery period that such GSR Costs had not been
expended by Transporter. Additionally, Transporter
shall calculate revisions to the GSR unit rate to true-
up differences between the actual level of
interruptible transportation throughput billed the GSR
unit rate under Rate Schedule IT-1 during the recovery
period ending the preceding March 31 and the effective
total interruptible transportation throughput
underlying the GSR unit rate actually billed during
that same recovery period. In the event that
Transporter's actual interruptible transportation
throughput billed the GSR unit rate under Rate Schedule
IT-1 is greater than the total effective interruptible
transportation throughput underlying the GSR unit rate,
Transporter shall credit an amount to each of the
subsequent annual principal amounts equal to the
difference in throughput multiplied by the principal
portion of the currently effective GSR unit rate,
