10. FACILITIES REIMBURSEMENT (Continued)
Transporter shall operate and maintain all equipment unless
otherwise agreed to in writing by Transporter and Shipper. All
such facilities must include any rights-of-way necessary to access
facilities for inspection and maintenance. Any such facilities
constructed by Shipper or third parties must be in accordance with
Transporter's specifications. Transporter must approve design
drawings and bills of materials, and construction shall be subject
to approval by Transporter's inspectors.
Shipper shall coordinate the construction of such facilities
with Transporter so that Transporter may reasonably have
inspectors at the site during construction. Shipper assumes full
responsibility and liability and agrees to hold Transporter
harmless from any liability of any nature arising from the
installation of such facilities by Shipper or by a third party for
Shipper.
(e) Transporter or Shipper shall not construct or modify any
facilities hereunder, except such facilities as are defined by
Section 1(a) of this TI-1 Rate Schedule. Such facilities may not
compromise the operational integrity of Transporter's pipeline
system. Construction is subject to acquiring any necessary
regulatory approvals.
(f) Transporter reserves the right to seek a waiver of the foregoing
facilities reimbursement policy, for good cause shown, during any
proceeding before the Commission instituted under Section 7 of the
Natural Gas Act. Nothing in this policy statement shall require
Transporter to file an application for a certificate of public
convenience and necessity under Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas
Act or from contesting an application for service filed pursuant
to Section 7(a) of the Natural Gas Act.
(g) If in its sole discretion Transporter determines that joint
ownership of the facilities will not be detrimental to
Transporter's system, Transporter will offer Shipper the option to
acquire an ownership interest in the facilities in proportion to
the amount of construction costs for which Shipper is responsible
pursuant to Section 10(a) hereof.
