## Text

(a) Firm transportation service shall be made available only through a presubscription agreement, a recourse tariff, or an open season conducted in accordance with AS 42.08.300 .

(b) The pipeline carrier shall offer a recourse tariff for firm transportation service. The rates included in the recourse tariff shall be determined on a cost-of-service basis and may be levelized over the depreciable life of the pipeline. The recourse tariff may not preclude the pipeline carrier from collecting rolled-in rates so long as the resulting rate for prior shippers does not exceed the initial maximum rate allowable under agreements for capacity.

(c) An in-state natural gas pipeline carrier may contract to provide firm transportation service for rates and containing provisions different than those in the recourse tariff. For purposes of this subsection, “provisions” are limited to those terms and conditions that directly relate to the rate and do not include the general operating terms and conditions of the recourse tariff.

(d) An in-state natural gas pipeline carrier shall provide interruptible transportation service through capacity not used for firm transportation service. An in-state natural gas pipeline carrier shall establish means for routinely advising potential shippers of the availability of interruptible transportation service and of uncommitted firm transportation capacity.
