GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
21. TRANSITION COSTS (Cont'd.)
(i) Ninety (90) percent of such GSR costs shall be
allocated to Transporter's shippers under the EFT, FT,
FST, FT-S and FSS Rate Schedules, based on the ratio of
the Shipper's Contract MDTQ or Maximum Storage Quantity
(MSQ) to the total Contract MDTQ and MSQ of
surcharged shippers under Rate Schedules EFT, FT, FST,
FT-S and FSS; provided, however, that a FSS shipper
shall not be surcharged, nor shall its MSQ be used in
the above calculation, with respect to any level of
service associated with Firm transportation under the
EFT, FT, FT-S or FST Rate Schedules. GSR Costs shall
be recovered from shippers under Rate Schedules EFT,
FT, FST, FT-S and FSS by means of a GSR Demand
Surcharge per Contract MDTQ or MSQ over a three-year
amortization period commencing on the date authorized
by the Commission. At the end of the three-year
period, Transporter shall continue to charge or refund
to the extent necessary to cause the under or over-
collections to be adjusted such that Transporter fully
recovers its GSR Costs allocated to Shippers under the
EFT, FT, FST, FT-S and FSS Rate Schedules.
Transporter will perform an annual revision of the
billing determinants to properly reflect changes in the
service levels of the Shippers receiving service.
(ii) Transporter shall recover the remaining ten (10)
percent of its GSR costs from Transporter's Shippers
under the IT Rate Schedule, over a three-year
amortization period, commencing on the date authorized
by the Commission. At the end of the three-year
period, Transporter shall continue to charge or refund
to the extent necessary to cause the under- or over-
collections to be adjusted such that Transporter fully
recovers its GSR costs allocated to Shippers under the
IT Rate Schedule.
If operating experience indicates that Transporter is
unable to recover said ten (10) percent from Shippers
under the IT Rate Schedule, Transporter may make a new
proposal to the Commission to recover any amount of GSR
costs not recovered through IT rates.
