GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
24. MISCELLANEOUS (Continued)
24.6. Policy with Respect to Fees and Construction of Facilities
(a) Except as provided in Section 24.6(b) of these General Terms
and Conditions, Customer shall reimburse Bobcat (a) for the
costs of any facilities installed by Bobcat with Customer's
consent to receive, measure, store, or deliver Gas for
Customer's account and (b) for any and all filings and
approval fees required in connection with Customer's Storage
Service Agreement that Bobcat is obligated to pay to the
Commission or any other governmental authority having
jurisdiction. Any reimbursement due Bobcat by Customer
pursuant to this Section shall be due and payable to Bobcat
within ten (10) days of receipt by Customer of Bobcat's
invoice(s) for same; provided, however, that subject to
Bobcat's consent, such reimbursement, plus carrying charges
thereon, may be amortized over a mutually agreeable period
not to extend beyond the primary contract term of the
Storage Service Agreement between Bobcat and Customer.
Carrying charges shall be computed utilizing interest
factors acceptable to both Bobcat and Customer.
(b) Bobcat may waive from time to time, at its discretion, all
or a portion of the facility cost reimbursement requirement
set forth in Section 24.6 of these General Terms and
Conditions for Rate Schedules FSS if Customer provides
Bobcat adequate assurances to make construction of the
facilities economical to Bobcat. All requests for waiver
shall be handled by Bobcat in a manner which is not unduly
discriminatory. For purposes of determining whether a
project is economical, Bobcat will evaluate projects on the
basis of various economic criteria, which will include the
estimated cost of the facilities, operating and maintenance
as well as administrative and general expenses attributable
to the facilities, the revenues Bobcat estimates will be
generated as a result of such construction, and the
availability of capital funds on terms and conditions
acceptable to Bobcat. In estimating the revenues to be
generated, Bobcat will evaluate the existence of capacity
limitations downstream of the facilities, the marketability
of the capacity, the interruptible versus the firm nature of
the service, and other similar factors which impact whether
the available capacity will actually be utilized.
