General Rate Case Outcome Summary

• Changes to interruptible requirements

• Changes to commodity price for Interruptible Sales customers

• Transportation rates move towards full cost-of-service

Page 3: Regulatory Update

Changes to Interruptible Requirements• Rate case proposal

– Annual testing– Failure to interrupt charge

• Rate case resolution– No testing– $40 penalty for each Dth that isn’t interrupted– If customer fails to interrupt then customer will be moved

from interruptible rate schedule to a firm schedule for three years for those interruptible volumes it failed to interrupt

– Each year interruptible customer will warrant that it has backup equipment and that they understand financial penalties.
