April 29, 1998, at Docket Nos. RP97-149-003, et al.,
[(83 FERC Para. 61,093 (1998))], Transporter and other pipelines

mechanism, Shippers: (1) shall indicate the amounts they are
voluntarily contributing to GRI and (2) may indicate the
specific project(s) or project area(s) to which the amounts
are applicable.

the amounts received through the “check-the-box” mechanism,
