2. APPLICABILITY AND CHARACTER OF SERVICE (continued)

2.3 (a) Except as provided in Section 2.3(b) below, a Shipper is

eligible to receive service under this Rate Schedule only if

the end-use facility is served by a single pipeline and,

where applicable, LDC. Such facility must also be equipped

with electronic gas measurement, furnished or caused to be

furnished by Shipper, compatible with Transporter's

information and communication system and capable of

verifying changes in flow on a periodic basis during the

Day. Additionally, Transporter (or its designee) must have

access to all measurement equipment involved in the

transaction for purposes of testing and inspecting the

equipment and the right to install, or cause to be

installed, communications equipment thereon. Transporter may

agree to provide service under this Rate Schedule for

Shipper's continuing service on downstream pipeline and/or

LDC systems provided that all of the other terms of this

Rate Schedule are satisfied and that Shipper warrants and

represents that the applicable pipeline and/or LDC has

agreed to accept, confirm and schedule nominations and

allocate quantities based on the nominations provided by

Transporter. In such case, the measurement readings shall

be taken at the ultimate end-use delivery point and the

service shall be provided by Transporter to the extent it

can be effectuated in accordance with Shipper's applicable

service agreement and the other pipeline's and LDC's tariff

or other requirements. Shipper shall continue to be

responsible for all costs, retentions and other obligations

under its service agreements with other pipelines and/or

LDCs.
