14.1 Determination of Quantity.
The quantity of gas received and delivered by Pipeline for
Customer's account hereunder shall be measured according to
Boyle's and Charles' Laws for the measurement of gas under

therefrom as provided in Section 14.9 below and shall be
determined as follows:
(a) The unit of measurement for the purpose of service
under any of Pipeline's rate schedules shall be one
(1) Dth. The number of Dths delivered shall be
determined by multiplying the number of Cubic Feet of
gas received or delivered, measured on the measurement
basis hereinafter specified, by the Total Heating
Value of such gas, in Dekatherms per Cubic Foot, as
defined in Section 1 of the GT&C, and by dividing the
product by 1 million (1,000,000.00).
(b) The unit of quantity for the purpose of measurement
shall be 1 Cubic Foot of gas at a temperature of 60o
Fahrenheit, at a pressure of thirty-three hundredths
pounds per square inch (0.33 PSI) gauge and an
atmospheric pressure of 14.4 PSI, resulting in an
absolute pressure of 14.73 pounds per square inch.
(c) The unit of weight for the purpose of measurement
shall be one (1) pound mass of gas.
(d) The average absolute atmospheric pressure shall be
assumed to be 14.4 pounds per square inch.
