13.2 Standards. The service unit of Gas scheduled, Received, or
Delivered by Caledonia under this Gas Tariff shall be a Dekatherm.
Dekatherms will be determined by multiplying the Mcf volume by the
ratio of the heating value per cubic foot to 1,000. The unit of volume
for measurement of all quantities of Gas shall be one (1) Cubic foot of
Gas at the base temperature of sixty degrees Fahrenheit (60 degrees F)
and at an absolute pressure of fourteen and seventy-three hundredths
(14.73) pounds per square inch and dry. One thousand (1,000) cubic feet
shall be denoted as 1 Mcf. All fundamental constants, observations,
records, and procedures involved in determining and/or verifying the
quantity and other characteristics of Gas Delivered hereunder shall,
unless otherwise specified herein, be in accordance with the standards
prescribed in Report No. 9 of the American Gas Association (“AGA”), as
now in effect and from time to time amended or supplemented. All
measurements of Gas shall be determined by calculation into terms of
such unit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is agreed that, for all
purposes, the Btu content of the Gas Received and Delivered by
Caledonia hereunder shall be measured on a “dry” basis rather than a
fully saturated or “wet” basis. For Gas volumes reported in cubic
meters, the standard conditions are 101.325 kPa, 15 degrees C, and dry.
If positive displacement, ultra sonic flow or turbine meters are used,
measurement shall be performed in accordance with AGA 9 as currently
available and with any subsequent amendments thereof accepted by
Caledonia in its reasonable judgment. The temperature of the Gas
flowing through a meter station shall be obtained by the use of a flow
computer. The temperature of the Gas during the measurement period
shall be used in computing the quantities of Gas Delivered during such
period. The heating value and the specific gravity shall be determined
by on-line C6+ chromatographic analysis of the Gas stream. The values
of the physical constants for the Gas compounds and the procedure for
determining the gross heating value and/or the specific gravity of the
Gas from them shall be as set forth in the referenced AGA Report No. 9.
