GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
858 contracts only to the extent the costs of such contracts are
reflected in Natural's jurisdictional rates. Upstream Capacity must
be held by Natural's Transportation Division, not by Natural's
Merchant Division, if any.
(b) Natural shall release all or any portion of
Upstream Capacity, in accordance with the capacity release program
of the upstream pipeline, provided that such a release reduces the
cost to Natural of such arrangements. The entity to which Natural
releases its capacity shall be responsible for providing Fuel Gas or
Gas Lost and Unaccounted For to the upstream pipeline. All revenue
received by Natural for releases (net of any variable costs incurred
by Natural from the upstream pipeline in connection with such
releases) shall be credited by Natural to Account No. 858. Such a
credit shall reduce Account No. 858 costs in the next semi-annual
tracking filing hereunder by Natural. Natural shall first apply
such revenue to offset any amounts allocated to Agreements which
Natural cannot collect due to contractual constraints in such
Agreements (such as offsetting underrecoveries prior to institution
of the discounting adjustment on April 1, 1994); provided, however,
that such revenue may not be applied to offset any revenue Natural
is deemed to have collected but did not actually collect for new
contracts entered into after the end of the rate case test period as
set out in Section 21.3(c). With respect to any remaining revenue,
Natural shall allocate such net revenue credit in the same manner
that the costs of Upstream Capacity are allocated in developing
Natural's tracking rates under Section 21.3(d) of these General
Terms and Conditions.
21.7 As utilized in this Section 21 and in Section 38 of
these General Terms and Conditions, the terms "Midwest Zone" and
"Production Zone" shall have the following meanings:
(a) The Midwest Zone shall consist of all facilities
north of Station 103 on the Amarillo Line and north of Station 302
on the Gulf Coast Line.
(b) The Production Zone shall consist of all other
facilities on Natural's system.
