Due to Excess Linepack Drafting

January 13, 2007

Paiute’s linepack is very low due to customers and receiving parties taking more than their scheduled volumes. Effective immediately and until further notice, Paiute is issuing an Operational Flow Order for overruns in accordance with Section 5.2(a) of the General Terms and Conditions (GT&C) of Paiute’s tariff. Customers are also reminded that there is an OFO in effect in accordance with 5.2(b) of the GT&C due to entitlements being in effect on NWPL.

Accordingly, pursuant to Section 5.2 (a) of the GT&C, Paiute hereby provides notice that each shipper should endeavor to limit its actual takes so as not to exceed its Daily Scheduled Quantity. Volumes taken in excess of a shipper’s Daily Scheduled Quantity shall constitute an Unauthorized Daily Overrun and will be subject to the penalties described in Sections 5.2.(a)(3) of the GT&C.

The following information is provided in accordance with Section 4.6(f) of the GT&C:
