12. QUALITY OF GAS (continued)
gas received from Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline
Limited Partnership may contain up to two and one
quarter percent (2.25%) carbon dioxide content by

discretion, that commingling opportunities exist to
permit it to deliver gas into downstream interstate
pipelines with a total carbon dioxide content that
does not exceed two percent (2%) by volume.
(d) Liquids. The gas shall be free of water and
hydrocarbons in liquid form at the temperature and
pressure at which the gas is received and delivered.
(e) Hydrogen Sulfide. The gas shall not contain more than
one-fourth (1/4) grains of hydrogen sulfide per one-
hundred (100) Cubic Feet.
(f) Total Sulphur. The gas shall not contain more than
