be the unit charge, adjusted to Pipeline's pressure base and
heating value, if required, which has been established by the
FERC. The ACA charge shall be applied to the commodity
component of transportation and sales rates.
22.4 The ACA shall be filed by the Pipeline at least thirty (30)
days prior to the proposed effective date unless, for good
cause shown, lesser periods are allowed by valid Commission
order. The proposed effective date of filings shall be
October 1 of each year. Any such filing shall not become
effective until it becomes effective without suspension or
refund obligation.
23. MEASUREMENT
23.1 The standard unit of measurement shall be one (1) Dkth or MMBtu,
consisting of one million (1,000,000) Btus. Quantities
measured at other temperatures and pressures shall be computed
into such units, giving effect to the deviation of gas from
Boyle's law.
23.2 The average atmospheric (barometric) pressure shall be assumed
to be 14.7 pounds per square inch, irrespective of the actual
elevation or location of delivery points above sea level or of
variations in such barometric pressure from time to time.
23.3 When orifice meters are used for the measurement of gas, the
computation of the quantities of gas shall be made in
accordance with the provisions of Gas Measurement Committee
Report No. 3, or any succeeding report, of the American Gas
Association, as changed from time to time, with any subsequent
amendments or revisions thereof now or hereafter made. The
flowing temperature and specific gravity of the gas at the
point of measurement shall be determined by Pipeline as
follows:
(a) The flowing temperature of the gas shall be determined
by means of a recording thermometer of standard
manufacture so installed that it may properly record the
temperature of the flowing gas. The average, taken from
