TRANSPORTATION GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

3. QUALITY OF GAS (Continued)
3.2 Quality Tests (Continued)
(c) Tests shall be made to determine the total sulphur,
hydrogen sulfide, carbon dioxide and oxygen content of
the gas, by approved standard methods in general use in
the gas industry, and to determine the hydrocarbon
dew-point and water vapor content of such gas by methods
satisfactory to the parties. Tests shall be made
frequently enough to ensure that the gas is conforming
continuously to the quality requirements. Shipper shall
have the right to require PG&E GT-NW to have remedied any
deficiency in quality of the gas and, in the event such
deficiency is not remedied, the right, in addition to
all other remedies available to it by law, to refuse to
accept such deficient gas until such deficiency is
remedied.
4. MEASURING EQUIPMENT
4.1 Installation: Unless PG&E GT-NW and Shippers agree otherwise,
all gas volume measuring equipment, devices and materials at the
point(s) of receipt and/or delivery shall be furnished and
installed by PG&E GT-NW at Shipper's expense including the
tax-on-tax effect. All such equipment, devices and materials
shall be owned, maintained and operated by PG&E GT-NW. Shipper
may install and operate check measuring equipment provided it
does not interfere with the use of PG&E GT-NW's equipment.
4.2 Testing Meter Equipment: The accuracy of either PG&E GT-NW's or
Shippers measuring equipment shall be verified by test, using
means and methods acceptable to the other party, at intervals
mutually agreed upon, and at other times upon request. Notice
of the time and nature of each test shall be given by the
entity conducting the test to the other entity sufficiently in
advance to permit convenient arrangement for the presence of
the representative of the other entity. If, after notice, the
other entity fails to have a representative present, the
results of the test shall nevertheless be considered accurate
until the next test. If any of the measuring equipment is
found to be registering inaccurately in any percentage, it
shall be adjusted at once to read as accurately as possible.
All tests of such measuring equipment shall be made at the
expense of the entity conducting the same, except that the
other entity shall bear the expense of tests made at its
request if the inaccuracy is found to be two percent (2%) or
less. (Continued)
