Component 2:
Any charges or credits associated with the creation, termination, or modification to any tariff, contract, or schedule accepted or approved by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) or other regulatory body will be passed on to each appropriate Customer. The Commission or other regulatory body accepted or approved charges or credits apply to the service to which this rate methodology applies.

When possible, Western will pass through directly to the appropriate Customer, the Commission or other regulatory body accepted or approved charges or credits in the same manner Western is charged or credited. If the Commission or other regulatory body accepted or approved charges or credits cannot be passed through directly to the appropriate Customer, the charges or credits will be passed through using Component 1 of the formula rate.

Component 3:
Any charges or credits from the Host Control Area (HCA) applied to Western for providing this service will be passed through directly to the appropriate Customer in the same manner Western is charged or credited, to the extent possible. If the HCA costs or credits cannot be passed through to the appropriate Customer in the same manner Western is charged or credited, the charges or credits will be passed through using Component 1 of the formula rate.
