CENTERPOINT ENERGY RESOURCES CORP. D/B/A CENTERPOINT ENERGY ENTEX AND CENTERPOINT ENERGY TEXAS GAS TEXAS COAST DIVISION-INCORPORATED RATE SHEET GENERAL SERVICE-LARGE VOLUME RATE SCHEDULE NO.GSLV-627A-I-GRIP 2018 be determined once monthly,the result obtained,to the nearest one-thousandth(0.001),to be applicable during the succeeding billing month. Adjustment for the effect of supercompressibility shall be made according to the provisions of A.G.A.Report No.3, hereinabove identified,for the average conditions of pressure,flowing temperature and specific gravity at which the gas was measured during the period under consideration,and with the proportionate value of each carbon dioxide and nitrogen in the gas delivered included in the computation of the applicable supercompressibility factors. Company shall obtain appropriate carbon dioxide and nitrogen fraction values as may be required from time to time. Positive Displacement Meters and Turbine Meters - When positive displacement meters and/or turbine meters are used for the measurement of gas,the flowing temperature of the gas metered shall be assumed to be sixty(60)degrees Fahrenheit,and no correction shall be made for any variation therefrom;provided however,that company shall have the option of installing a recording thermometer,and if company exercises such option,corrections shall be made for each degree variation in the applicable flowing temperature for the period under consideration. The volumes of gas determined shall be adjusted for the effect of supercompressibility as follows: (A) When the flowing temperature of gas is assumed to be sixty (60) degrees Fahrenheit, the supercompressibility factor shall be the square of the factor, Fpv, computed in accordance with the principles of the A.G.A.Report No. 3,hereinabove identified,for a pure hydrocarbon gas of six-tenths(0.6)specific gravity and for the average pressure at which the gas was measured. (B) When the flowing gas temperature is recorded and applied according to the option above, the supercompressibility factor shall be the square of the factor, Fpv, computed in accordance with the principles of the American Gas Association Gas Measurement Committee Report No. 3, hereinabove identified,for a pure hydrocarbon gas of six-tenths(0.6)specific gravity and for the average conditions of pressure and flowing temperature at which the gas was measured. SUPPLY INTERRUPTIONS Total or partial interruption of gas deliveries due to acts of God,the elements,requirements for residential and other uses declared superior to Consumers by law,or to other causes or contingencies beyond the control of Company or not proximately caused by Company's negligence, shall not be the basis for claims-delivery and receipt of gas to be resumed whenever any such cause or contingency shall end. CHARGES FOR UNAUTHORIZED OVER-RUN GAS Any gas taken during any day by Consumer which exceeds the maximum daily quantity specified in Consumer's contract with Company shall be considered to be unauthorized over-run gas. Any gas taken by Consumer after the effective hour of an order calling for a complete curtailment of all gas deliveries,and prior to the authorized resumption of natural gas service,hereunder shall be considered to be unauthorized over-run gas. Any gas taken by Consumer after the effective hour of an order calling for a partial curtailment,and prior to the authorized resumption of natural gas service,which exceeds the stated amount of gas deliveries Consumer may take during such partial curtailment, shall be considered to be unauthorized over-run gas. Company shall bill, and Consumer shall pay for unauthorized over-run gas at the rate of$10.00 per Mcf,in addition to the Monthly Rate specified herein for such gas. The payment of such additional charge for unauthorized over-run gas shall not,under any circumstances,be considered as giving the Consumer the right to take unauthorized over-run gas,nor shall such payment be considered to exclude or limit
