EXHIBIT C ELECTRONIC DATA INTERCHANGE (EDI) PROCEDURES I. Introduction Respondents may submit the structured data file for Form No. 11 filings directly to the Commission via Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). Although transmission of such structured data via EDI will be in lieu of providing the data on magnetic media (tape or diskette), hardcopies of the Form No. 11 must still be submitted to the Commission in accordance with 18 CFR  260.3. The Commission will accept Form No. 11 structured data files that are transmitted via EDI provided such tranmissions conform to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) X.12 standard transaction set 864, Text. Specific definitions required and optional segments for this transaction set are included in this Exhibit. Those natural gas pipelines which choose to submit Form No. 11 filings via EDI must obtain the following unique electronic identifiers from the Commission:  Pipeline ID Qualifier  Pipeline User-ID The Commission point of contact for assignment of the Pipeline ID Qualifier and User-ID is Robert Trimble on (202) 208-0906. Respondents will be required to provide the name of the interstate pipeline point of contact and the telephone number for this individual to Robert Trimble at the time the Pipeline ID Qualifier and User-ID are assigned. The Commission will receive EDI transmissions via its mailbox on its contracted Value Added Network (VAN) (currently the IBM Information Network Information Exchange). Electronic documents may be placed in this mailbox at any time; however, the Commission will only retrieve documents from the mailbox during normal business hours which are Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Respondents should direct their messages to the following network ID and message class:  Commission ID Qualifier: FERC  Commission User-ID: FERC01  Commission Class: PFFORM11 II. Transaction Set Segments The following transaction set segments will be accepted by FERC in a Form No. 8 or Form No. 11 filing via EDI.
