RATE SCHEDULE FRSS
FIRM REVERSE STORAGE SERVICE
----------------------------
1. AVAILABILITY
(a) Under this Rate Schedule FRSS, Natural provides firm
reverse storage service to any entity (hereinafter called Shipper)
which: (1) submits to Natural a valid request as defined in Section 3
hereof; and (2) executes a Firm Reverse Storage Service Agreement
(FRSS Agreement) with Natural applicable to service under this Rate
Schedule FRSS. The form of FRSS Agreement is contained in this
Tariff. There is no limitation on the number of FRSS Agreements any
one Shipper may have.
(b) Shipper shall arrange separately for the transportation
to inject gas into storage in connection with service hereunder, as
further provided in Section 8(b) of this Rate Schedule FRSS.
(c) A Shipper may elect delivered storage service or a
storage-only option. A Shipper selecting the storage-only option
hereunder shall arrange separately for transportation service upon
withdrawal of gas from storage.
2. APPLICABILITY, CHARACTER AND PRIORITY OF SERVICE
(a) This Rate Schedule FRSS defines a firm reverse storage
service. Unless Shipper elects the storage-only option, service
hereunder encompasses the delivery of gas withdrawn from storage to
the Delivery Point(s) in the FRSS Agreement. The Shipper under an
FRSS Agreement has firm summer withdrawal rights (during the
Withdrawal Period defined in Section 5.1 hereof), followed by firm
winter injection rights which must be used in satisfying Shipper's
obligation to replace the gas withdrawn the prior summer (such firm
injections to be made during the Injection Period defined in Section
5.2 of this Rate Schedule FRSS). Under this Rate Schedule FRSS, gas
must be withdrawn before Shipper can tender injections. Firm
withdrawal rights are available on a no-notice basis within the
rights defined in Sections 5 and 7 of this Rate Schedule FRSS.
Shipper must separately arrange for transportation to effectuate
injections and must nominate injections. A Shipper selecting the
storage-only option must separately arrange for transportation
service to effectuate withdrawals, and must nominate such withdrawals
except to the extent Shipper has no-notice rights under Section
7.5(b) of this Rate Schedule. This Rate Schedule FRSS shall apply to
all gas withdrawn by Natural and delivered to or for the account of
Shipper pursuant to an FRSS Agreement.
