11. FACILITIES REIMBURSEMENT (Continued)
When Transporter has previously paid for all or a portion of
receipt or delivery point facilities under this facilities
reimbursement policy, Shipper shall, nevertheless, promptly pay
Transporter for Transporter's net book value of such facilities
when either of the following events occurs: (1) when
Transporter's ability to fully recover such costs is denied in any
Section 4 or Section 5 rate proceeding, or (2) when Shipper ceases
operations at the end-use point or receipt point adjacent to where
the facilities were installed.
(b) Regardless of the outcome of the economic test, at its option,
Transporter will pay all costs of acquiring any rights to real
property upon which the contemplated facilities are to be
constructed, as well as costs related to rights of ingress and
egress. Unless otherwise agreed, any rights of ownership and
control associated with such real property will be retained by
Transporter.
(c) When Transporter installs facilities which require Shipper's
reimbursement under Section 11(a), Shipper may choose one of the
following options for payment:
(1) Shipper may pay due Transporter for the subject facility
construction costs pursuant to Section 11(a), and related
income taxes, in full upon completion of construction; or
(2) Shipper may arrange to reimburse Transporter for the cost of
facilities contemplated by this Section 11 through a
"Facility Cost-of-Service Charge." The terms of
reimbursement will be set forth on "Exhibit C" to the Rate
Schedule TF-1 Service Agreement, executed by Transporter and
Shipper. This Facility Cost of Service Charge obligation
may be transferred to superseding or replacement service
agreements, as necessary. The Shipper who requested the
facilities, or its successor, will be charged monthly a
Facility Cost-of-Service Charge for such facilities until
Transporter recovers in full the net book value, and the
associated rate of return and income taxes, of that portion
of the facilities for which Shipper is responsible to pay
pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof. In calculating the
Facility Cost-of-Service Charge for the facilities,
