WEATHER NORMALIZATION ADJUSTMENT
Effective with bills rendered during the October 1992 through
May 1993 billing months, and annually thereafter for the
October through May billing months, the above residential and
commercial consumption rates for gas service will be subject
to a weather normalization adjustment each billing cycle to
reflect the impact of variations in the actual heating degree
days during the period included in the billing cycle from the
normal level of heating degree days during the period included
in the billing cycle. The weather normalization adjustment
will be implemented on a per Mcf basis and will be applicable
to the heating load of each customer during the period
included in the billing cycle. It will be determined
separately for residential and commercial customers based on
heating degree data recorded by the D/FW weather station. The
adjustment to be made for each billing cycle will be
calculated according to the following formula:

The heating load to which the weather normalization adjustment
is to be applied for residential customers is determined by
subtracting the residential class base load from the total
volume being billed to the customer. The heating load to
which the weather normalization adjustment is to be applied
for commercial customers is determined by subtracting the base
load for the customer from the total volume being billed to
the customer. The base load of a customer is the average
level of nonheating consumption.
The weather normalization adjustment is subj ect to a 50%
limitation factor based on temperatures being fifty percent
warmer or colder than normal. The weather normalization
adjustment will be calculated to the nearest $.0001 per Mcf.
