RATE SCHEDULE FTS-1
Firm Transportation Service
(continued)
3.4 Overrun Charge: On any day that gas scheduled from Shipper for
transportation is in excess of the MAXDTQ (exclusive of
Transport Fuel), then the Transport Charge applicable to such
overrun gas shall be the Maximum Transport Charge set forth on
the currently effective Rate Sheets for Rate Schedule ITS-1.
3.5 Discounted Rates: Transporter may from time to time and at any
time at its sole discretion and expense, charge any individual
Shipper for transportation service under Rate Schedule FTS-1, a
Reservation Charge, a Transport Charge, or an Overrun Charge
which is lower than the stated rates set forth in Shipper's
FTS-1 Service Agreement or on the currently effective Rate
Sheets; provided, however, that such rate charged may not be
less than the applicable Minimum Rate set forth on the currently
effective Rate Sheets for Rate Schedules FTS-1 and ITS-1. The discounted
rate is only applicable to those quantities transported at specified
receipt and delivery points. A shipper may request that the discounted
rate be extended to alternate receipt or delivery points under
its existing agreements, capacity segment contracts under Section 33, or
released capacity under Section 30. There is a rebuttal presumption
that a shipper holding a discount at a point under it's primary contractual
capacity path and direction of flow will receive a discounted rate at alternate
receipt or delivery points within the same capacity path and direction of
flow if Transporter has granted discounts to other similarly situated
shippers at such alternate receipt or delivery points utilizing the same
capacity path and direction of flow. If a discounted rate is applicable,
shipper will pay the higher of its contracted discount rate or the discount
rate of such similarly situated shipper.
A shipper seeking to extend a discount to alternate points may submit a
request to Transporter prior to any scheduling cycle. Transporter shall
act on such requests within two hours during the business day. For overnight
requests to retain discounts received after 4:00 pm, Transporter shall act
no later than 8:30 am CCT the next business day. Transporter shall not be
obligated to process discount requests on the weekend.
Transporter shall file with the Commission any and all reports as
required by the Commission's Regulations setting forth the applicable
charge, the individual Shipper(s) affected, the volume transported and
any other information which may be required.
3.6 Negotiated Rates: Transporter and Shipper may mutually agree to
rates for services that may be below the minimum rates or above
the maximum rates set forth on the currently effective Rate
Sheets for Rate Schedule FTS-1. For each Negotiated Rate transaction,
Transporter shall file, at least one day prior to the commencement of
service, tariff sheets which include the Shipper, the rate or formula
used to calculate the rate, the term, the volume, and the receipt and
delivery points applicable to the service.
