may be changed from time to time as operating experience indicates.

(b) In applying this Section, Natural shall operate

which may result from its actions, provided that Natural's actions

were undertaken in furtherance of and in accordance with this

Section and provided further that such adverse consequences are not

attributable to Natural's negligence or misfeasance.
