Dated: October 1, 2001

 


 

Contract No. 31050000

No-Notice Storage and Transportation Delivery Service Agreement
Rate Schedule NNT-1


    The Parties identified below, in consideration of their mutual promises, agree as follows:
 
1.   Transporter: COLORADO INTERSTATE GAS COMPANY
 
2.   Shipper: PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY OF COLORADO
 
3.   Applicable Tariff: Transporter’s FERC Gas Tariff, First Revised Volume No. 1, as the same may be amended or superseded from time to time (“the Tariff”).
 
4.   Changes in Rates and Terms: Transporter shall have the right to propose to the FERC changes in its rates and terms of service, and this Agreement shall be deemed to include any changes which are made effective pursuant to FERC Order or regulation or provisions of law, without prejudice to Shipper’s right to protest the same.
 
5.   Transportation Service: Transportation Service at and between Point of Withdrawal and Primary Point(s) of Delivery shall be on a firm basis. Delivery of quantities at Secondary Point(s) shall be in accordance with the Tariff.
 
6.   Delivery: Transporter agrees to transport and deliver Delivery Quantities to Shipper (or for Shipper’s account) at the Point(s) of Delivery identified in the attached Exhibit “A.” Minimum and Maximum delivery pressures, as applicable, are listed on Exhibit “A.”
 
7.   Rates and Surcharges: As set forth in Exhibit “B.” For example, Transporter and Shipper may agree that a specified discount rate will apply: (a) only to certain specified firm service entitlements under this Agreement; (b) only if specified quantity levels are actually achieved under this Agreement (with higher rates, charges, and fees applicable to all quantities above those levels, or to all quantities under the Agreement if the specified levels are not achieved); (c) only to production reserves committed by the Shipper; (d) only during specified time periods; (e) only to specified Point(s) of Receipt, Point(s) of Delivery, mainline area segments, supply areas, Transportation routes, or defined geographical areas under the associated Transportation Agreement; or (f) in a specified relationship to the quantities actually Delivered (i.e., that the rates shall be adjusted in a specified relationship to quantities actually Delivered); provided, however, that any such discounted rates set forth above shall be between the minimum and maximum rates applicable to the service provided under this Agreement.
 
    In addition, the discount agreement may include a provision that if one rate component which was at or below the applicable maximum rate at the time the discount agreement was executed subsequently exceeds the applicable maximum rate due to a change in Transporter’s maximum rates so that such rate component must be adjusted downward to equal the new applicable maximum rate, then other rate components may be adjusted upward to achieve the agreed overall rate, so long as none of the resulting rate components exceed the maximum rate applicable to that rate component. Such changes to rate components shall be applied prospectively, commencing with the date a Commission order accepts revised tariff sheets. However, nothing contained herein shall be construed to alter a refund obligation under applicable law for any period during which rates that had been charged under a discount agreement exceeded rates which ultimately are found to be just and reasonable.
 
8.   For the period October 1, 2001 through Aprf 30, 2007:
     
Maximum Delivery Quantity (“MDQ”):
  637,144 Dth per Day
Maximum Available Capacity (“MAC”):

Maximum Daily Injection Quantity (“MDIQ”):
  203,691 Dth per Day
