Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
§ 284.266 Rates and charges for interstate pipelines.
(a) Transportation rates—(1) Rate on
file. If an interstate pipeline has on file
with the Commission an effective
transportation rate schedule that conforms to § 284.10, it must use volumetric rates based upon fully-allocated
costs and adjusted only for time and
distance.
(2) Rate not on file. If an interstate
pipeline does not have on file with the
Commission a transportation rate
schedule that conforms to § 284.10, it
may:
(i) Base its rates upon the methodology used in designing rates to recover the transmission and related
storage costs included in one of its
then-effective sales rates schedules; or
(ii) Use the rates contained in one of
its transportation rate schedules on
file with the Commission which the
interstate pipeline determines covers
service comparable to transportation
service authorized under this subpart.
(b) Interstate pipeline costs excluded
from rate base. An interstate pipeline
may not include in its jurisdictional
rate base any cost associated with facilities installed and operated in connection with an emergency natural gas
transaction unless a certificate of public convenience and necessity has been
issued authorizing the costs. Absent a
certificate, such facilities may only be
used to conduct emergency natural gas
transactions or transactions authorized under section 311 of the NGPA.
