GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
12. BALANCING OF GAS (Continued)
(e) TransColorado shall notify Operators each day during a
Critical System Alert via the Informational Postings portion of its
Interactive Website that the situation continues to exist.
12.11 Fuel Gas Reimbursement. For all gas tendered by shipper for
transportation under Rate Schedules FT, IT, or negotiated rate agreements,
Shipper shall reimburse TransColorado in kind as posted on its EBB, for
gas consumed in transmission-system operations and for lost-
and-unaccounted-for gas. Effective April 1, 2001, TransColorado shall
assess Phase I shippers that entered into contracts after March 31, 2001,
for their proportionate share of lost or gained and unaccounted-for gas.
TransColorado shall be at risk for the lost and unaccounted-for gas
properly allocable to shippers that entered into contracts on or before
March 31, 2001, for service in TransColorado's Phase I facilities. Phase
II shippers will reimburse TransColorado for gas consumed in transmission-
system operations and for lost-and-unaccounted-for gas. The fuel-gas
reimbursement percentage (FGRP), initially 1.0%, shall be applied to
quantities of gas tendered by shipper. Shipper's total receipt-point
nominations must include the amount of gas equal to the FGRP.
TransColorado shall post on its EBB a revised FGRP five days in advance of
the first of each month to be effective during the month. TransColorado
shall have the right to adjust the FGRP to reflect the actual quantity of
gas used by TransColorado so as not to create an imbalance on its system.
The FGRP for Phase I and Phase II shippers will include two components:
(1) lost or gained and unaccounted-for quantities, and (2) prior 12-months
ending December 31 variance adjustment, that includes unamortized or over-
amortized quantities from the preceding April 1 through March 31 12-month
amortization period. The FGRP for Phase II will include as a third
component, system gas consumption.
(a) The monthly FGRP for Phase I shippers that entered into
contracts after March 31, 2001, will be calculated using the most recent
available actual data and will be equal to (i) plus (iii) of this section.
The monthly FGRP for Phase II shippers will be calculated using the most
recent available actual data and be equal to (i) plus (ii)plus (iv)of this
section.
(i) Projected monthly lost and unaccounted-for
component of the FGRP will equal (i)(1) divided by (i)(2):
(1) Projected transmission system losses or
gains and unaccounted-for quantities will be calculated by subtracting the
physical transmission deliveries for the month, two months previous to the
projected month, including actual system gas consumed, from corresponding
physical transmission receipts as adjusted for anticipated changes in
system operations.
(2) Projected monthly scheduled Phase I and II
transportation receipt quantities. Projected monthly scheduled
transportation receipts will be based on the scheduled Phase I and Phase
