Our Goal………….Our Goal…………. Work Work Collaboratively Collaboratively with with
Pipelines & Suppliers to Pipelines & Suppliers to understand potential impacts of understand potential impacts of new supplies on end use & new supplies on end use & address gas quality issues address gas quality issues appropriately in appropriately in Pipeline TariffsPipeline Tariffs
QualifyQualify and and QuantifyQuantify end use end use applications that may require applications that may require retrofits of “substance” & retrofits of “substance” & negotiate best economic “fix”negotiate best economic “fix”

Interchangeability Implementation Process
1
Understand Historical Supply
2
Identify “Sensitive Receptors”
- LDC’s catalog potential sensitive customer equipment
4
Assessment
- Assess sensitive equipment- Establish extent of retrofits- Negotiate fixes
5
SettlementAgreement
- Establish interchangeability Tariff parameters - Establish most economical retrofit strategy , schedule & cost sharing mechanism
- Work with Pipelines to establish system adjustment
gas
• Work with Pipelines and Suppliers• Establish reasonable supply compositions
Understand “Zone ofInfluence”

Next Steps……….
• Consolidate End Use Data
• Proposal To Have an independent third party “expert”, (GTI), assess the surveys to qualify and quantify real vs perceived impacts
• Study to be funded collaboratively via stake holders from all segments…….
• Results of the study will be made “public” in the best interest of the industry to resolve similar issues
1515
Remaining Challenges……..
• Responsibility of all stake holders in the value chain. Suppliers / Producers, Pipes, LDC’s and End Users need to work together and build on the technical foundation laid by the NGC+ technical teams.
• Realization that many existing tariffs will need to be updated to address interchangeability, hydrocarbon liquid dropout and overall gas quality issues. • Timing is a challenge….. LNG terminals need to know now what design options are necessary to accommodate future tariff requirements.
