21.1 GAS RESEARCH INSTITUTE CHARGE ADJUSTMENT:
a. PURPOSE
Transporter has joined with other gas enterprises in the
formation of and participation in the activities and
financing of Gas Research Institute (GRI), an Illinois not

purpose of sponsoring Research, Development and
Demonstration (RD&D) programs in the field of natural and
manufactured gas for the purpose of assisting all segments
of the gas industry in providing adequate, reliable, safe,
economic and environmentally acceptable gas service for the
benefit of gas consumers and the general public.
For the purpose of funding of GRI's approved expenditures,
this Section establishes a GRI Adjustment Charge to be
applicable to Transporter's Rate Schedules NNS, FT and IT,
as set forth on Sheet No. 4-D of Second Revised Volume No.
1-A of this FERC Gas Tariff; provided however, such charge
shall not be applicable to Shippers which are interstate
pipelines and which include in their rates a charge for RD&D
expenditures, or to Shippers which pay a charge for RD&D
expenditures to a third party in connection with third party
transportation of gas.
b. BASIS OF THE GRI ADJUSTMENT CHARGE
The Rate Schedules shall include an increment for a GRI
Adjustment Charge for RD&D. Such adjustment charge shall be
that increment, adjusted to Transporter's pressure base and
