(Continued)
19. RECEIPT AND DELIVERY FACILITIES (Continued)
19.4 Existing Facilities. If Transporter has previously paid for all
or a portion of Receipt Point or Delivery Point facilities under a
facilities agreement with Shipper, Shipper will, nevertheless,
promptly pay Transporter for Transporter's remaining net book value of
such facilities, including any related income taxes, when either of
the following events occurs: (1) Transporter's ability to fully
recover such costs is denied in any Section 4 or Section 5 rate
proceeding, or (2) Shipper permanently ceases operations at the
end-use point or Receipt Point adjacent to where the facilities were
installed.
19.5 Waiver of Facilities Reimbursement Policy. Transporter reserves
the right to seek a waiver of the foregoing facilities reimbursement
policy, for good cause shown, during any proceeding before the
Commission instituted under Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act. Nothing
in this policy statement will require Transporter to file an
application for a certificate of public convenience and necessity
under Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act or will prohibit Transporter
from contesting an application for service filed pursuant to Section
7(a) of the Natural Gas Act.
19.6 In addition to the above requirements, Portland General will agree
to construct a new interconnect or modify an existing interconnect on the
following terms:
(a) The construction of the new interconnect will not create any
significant operational problems for Portland General;
(b) The proposed interconnect will not adversely affect the
rendition of existing service or adversely alter the operation of
the pipeline system;
(c) The new interconnect must be at a mutually agreeable location
on the Portland General system; provided, however, that Portland
General may not deny a customer's request for specific placement
of the interconnect without adequate operational, environmental,
or legal jurisdiction;
(d) In order to properly and prudently design and size the new
interconnect, Portland General must be provided with reasonable and
reliable data concerning the interconnecting facilities, including
delivery pressures, and anticipated hourly, daily, monthly and
annual volume levels of the service that supports the new
interconnect and such other data as is reasonably required to
construct the interconnect facility.
