25. REIMBURSEMENT OF FUEL USED AND LOST AND UNACCOUNTED-FOR GAS
25.1 NAESB Fuel Reimbursement Standards. The following NAESB Standards
(Version 1.8) will apply and are stated verbatim rather than
incorporated by reference in Section 29 of the General Terms and
Conditions.
NAESB 1.3.15: "When the fuel reimbursement method is fuel in-kind,
the results of the fuel reimbursement calculations for the
nomination process should be rounded to the nearest dekatherm or
Gigajoule (Canada)."
NAESB 1.3.16: "Where fuel reimbursement is in kind, the standard
fuel calculation mechanism, as this is related to the nomination
process, should be (1-fuel%/100) multiplied by receipt quantity =
delivery quantity."
NAESB 1.3.28: "For current in-kind fuel reimbursement procedures,
fuel rates should be made effective only at the beginning of the
month."
NAESB 1.3.29: "For in-kind fuel reimbursement methods, Service
Providers should not reject a nomination for reasons of rounding
differences due to fuel calculation of less than 5 Dth."
NAESB 1.3.30: "For in-kind fuel reimbursement methods, Service
Providers should provide, if applicable, a fuel matrix for receipt
and Delivery Point combinations. The Service Requesters should
not be responsible for calculating and totaling fuel based on each
zone or facility traversed."
NAESB 1.3.31: "The transportation priority for fuel should be the
same as the level of service as the transaction to which it
applies."

any Rate Schedule, a percentage retention of both (i) gas required
for operations, company use gas, and fuel used ("GRO") and for

percentages referred collectively as "Fuel"). The Fuel retention
shall be uniform for service under each of COMPANY'S rate
schedules. COMPANY will make a filing no later than sixty (60)
