GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
19. ANNUAL CHARGES ADJUSTMENT CLAUSE (Cont'd.)
19.4 Intent. Seller intends to fund the Annual Charges assessed
against it by the Commission or any successor agency pursuant to
18 CFR Section 154.38(d)(6) through this Section 19. If this
Section 19 is approved by the Commission, Seller does not intend
to recover such Annual Charges recorded in FERC Account No. 928
through a general rate case filing under Section 4 of the Natural
Gas Act.
20. PASS-THROUGH OF FIXED TAKE-OR-PAY SURCHARGE
20.1 Purpose. This Section establishes the procedures under which
Seller will recover from Buyers who formerly received service
under Seller's former RQ and CD rate schedules, the total take-
or-pay charges approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission ("Commission") and billed to Seller on a fixed basis
by its pipeline suppliers and pipeline transporters ("upstream
pipelines"). Such charges by Seller shall be paid by each such
Buyer (hereinafter "Shipper") until Seller has recovered from
such Shipper the total allocated amounts, principal and carrying
charges, to be recovered from Shipper pursuant to this Section
20.
20.2 Procedures. This Subsection 20.2 establishes the procedures
under which Seller will recover from Shippers, through a fixed
Surcharge under Seller's firm transportation rate schedules, the
total take-or-pay charges approved by the Commission to be billed
to Seller by its upstream pipelines. Each Shipper's share of the
fixed take-or-pay charges billed to Seller by its upstream
pipelines shall be separately calculated for each increment of
upstream pipeline take-or-pay permitted by the Commission to be
collected from Seller.
(a) Basis of the Surcharge. Each Shipper's share of the fixed
take-or-pay charges collected from Seller by its upstream
pipelines subject to Order No. 528, shall be determined
according to allocation factors set forth in Section
20.2(b)(1), (4), and (5) below. Each Shipper's share of the
fixed take-or-pay charges collected from Seller by its
upstream pipelines exempt from Order No. 528 shall be
calculated upon the purchase deficiency methodology.
