this FERC Gas Tariff, First Revised Volume No. 1-A.

16.2 Basis of the Annual Charge Adjustment. The rate schedules

specified in Section 16.1 hereof shall include an increment for

ACA charges as required by the Federal Energy Regulatory

adjusted to Transporter's pressure base and heating value, if

required, which is listed on the Commission's Annual Charges

Billing. The ACA charge shall be reflected on Sheet No. 201 of

this tariff.

16.3 Filing Procedure. The notice period and proposed effective date

of filings pursuant to this subsection shall be as authorized or

ordered by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Any such

filing shall not become effective unless it becomes effective

without suspension or refund obligation.

16.4 Remittance to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

Northwest shall remit to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,

on/or before the date which is specified on the Annual Charges

Billing, the Total Annual Charge stated on such billing.

16.5 Accounting Procedures. Transporter will record annual charges in

FERC Account No. 928. Pursuant to Section 154.38 (d)(6)(ii)(A) of

the Commission's regulations, Transporter will not attempt to

recover any annual charges previously recorded in Account No. 928

in a NGA Section 4 rate case.
