SHEET NO. 43369-G Rule No. 30 Sheet 1 TRANSPORTATION OF CUSTOMER-OWNED GAS (Continued) (TO BE INSERTED BY UTILITY) ISSUED BY (TO BE INSERTED BY CAL. PUC) ADVICE LETTER NO. 4240 Lee Schavrien DATE FILED May 6, 2011 DECISION NO. 11-04-032 Senior Vice President EFFECTIVE Jun 5, 2011 1C0 Regulatory Affairs RESOLUTION NO. The general terms and conditions applicable whenever the Utility System Operator transports customer- owned gas, including wholesale customers, the Utility Gas Procurement Department, other end-use customers, aggregators, marketers and storage customers (referred to herein as “customers") over its system are described herein. A. General 1. Subject to the terms, limitations and conditions of this rule and any applicable CPUC authorized tariff schedule, directive, or rule, the customer will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Utility and accept on redelivery quantities of gas which shall not exceed the Utility's capability to receive or redeliver such quantities. The Utility will accept such quantities of gas from the customer or its designee and redeliver to the customer on a reasonably concurrent basis an equivalent quantity, on a therm basis, to the quantity accepted. 2. The customer warrants to the Utility that the customer has the right to deliver the gas provided for in the customer's applicable service agreement or contract (hereinafter "service agreement") and that the gas is free from all liens and adverse claims of every kind. The customer will indemnify, defend and hold the Utility harmless against any costs and expenses on account of royalties, payments or other charges applicable before or upon delivery to the Utility of the gas under such service agreement. 3. The point(s) where the Utility will receive the gas into its intrastate system (point(s) of receipt, as defined in Rule No. 1) and the point(s) where the Utility will deliver the gas from its intrastate system to the customer (point(s) of delivery, as defined in Rule No. 1) will be set forth in the customer's applicable service agreement. Other points of receipt and delivery may be added by written amendment thereof by mutual agreement. The appropriate delivery pressure at the point(s) of delivery to the customer shall be that existing at such point(s) within the Utility's system or as specified in the service agreement. B. Quantities 1. The Utility shall as nearly as practicable each day redeliver to customer and customer shall accept, a like quantity of gas as is delivered by the customer to the Utility on such day. It is the intention of both the Utility and the customer that the daily deliveries of gas by the customer for transportation hereunder shall approximately equal the quantity of gas which the customer shall receive at the point(s) of delivery. However, it is recognized that due to operating conditions either (1) in the fields of production, (2) in the delivery facilities of third parties, or (3) in the Utility's system, deliveries into and redeliveries from the Utility's system may not balance on a day-to-day basis. The Utility and the customer will use all due diligence to assure proper load balancing in a timely manner. T T T SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY Revised CAL. P.U.C.

PUC) ADVICE LETTER NO. 4842 Dan Skopec DATE FILED Jul 31, 2015 DECISION NO. Vice President EFFECTIVE Apr 1, 2016 2C0 Regulatory Affairs RESOLUTION NO. B. Quantities (Continued) 2. The gas to be transported hereunder shall be delivered and redelivered as nearly as practicable at uniform hourly and daily rates of flow. The Utility may refuse to accept fluctuations in excess of ten percent (10%) of the previous day's deliveries, from day to day, if in the Utility's opinion receipt of such gas would jeopardize other operations. Customers may make arrangements acceptable to the Utility to waive this requirement. 3. The Utility does not undertake to redeliver to the customer any of the identical gas accepted by the Utility for transportation, and all redelivery of gas to the customer will be accomplished by substitution on a therm-for-therm basis. 4. Transportation customers, including the Utility Gas Procurement Department, wholesale customers, contracted marketers, and Core Transport Agents (CTAs) will be provided monthly balancing services in accordance with the provisions of Schedule No. G-IMB. C. Electronic Bulletin Board 1. The Utility prefers and encourages customers, including the Utility Gas Procurement Department, to use Electronic Bulletin Board (EBB) as defined in Rule No. 1 to submit their transportation nominations to the Utility. Imbalance trades are to be submitted through EBB or by means of the Imbalance Trading Agreement Form (Form 6544). Use of EBB is not mandatory for transportation only customers. 2. Transportation nominations may be submitted manually or through EBB. D. Operational Requirements 1. Customer Representation The customer must provide to the Utility the name(s) of any agents ("Agent") used by the customer for delivery of gas to the Utility for transportation service hereunder and their authority to represent customer. A customer may choose only one of the following gas supply arrangements: 1) one Contracted Marketer, 2) one or multiple Agents (in addition to a Contracted Marketer if desired), or 3) itself for purposes of nominating to its end-use account (OCC).

Receipt Points Utility accepts nominations from transportation customers or their representatives at the following Receipt Points into the SoCalGas system, as referenced in Schedule No. G-BTS*:  El Paso Pipeline at Blythe (Southern Transmission Zone)  North Baja Pipeline at Blythe (Southern Transmission Zone)  Transportadora de Gas Natural de Baja California at Otay Mesa (Southern Transmission Zone)  Kern River Pipeline and Mojave Pipeline (Wheeler Transmission Zone)  PG&E at Kern River Station (Wheeler Transmission Zone)  Occidental of Elk Hills at Gosford (Wheeler Transmission Zone)  Transwestern Pipeline at North Needles (Northern Transmission Zone)  Transwestern Pipeline at Topock (Northern Transmission Zone)  El Paso Pipeline at Topock (Northern Transmission Zone)  Questar Southern Trails Pipeline at North Needles (Northern Transmission Zone)  Kern River Pipeline and Mojave Pipeline at Kramer Junction (Northern Transmission Zone)  Line 85 (California Supply)  North Coastal (California Supply)  Other (California Supply)  Storage * Additional Receipt Points will be added as they are established in the future. 3. Backbone Transmission Capacity Each day, Receipt Point and Backbone Transmission Zone capacities will be set at their physical operating maximums under the operating conditions for that day. The Utility will schedule nominations for each Receipt Point and Backbone Transmission Zone to the maximum operating capacity of that individual Receipt Point or Backbone Transmission Zone. The maximum operating capacity is defined as the facility design or contractual limitation to deliver gas into the Utility’s system adjusted for operational constraints (i.e. maintenance, localized restrictions, and upstream delivery pressures) as determined each day. The NAESB elapsed pro rata rules require that the portion of the scheduled quantity that would have theoretically flowed up to the effective time of the intraday nomination be confirmed, based upon a cumulative uniform hourly quantity for each nomination period affected. As such, the scheduled quantities for each shipper are subject to change in the Intraday 1 Cycle, the Intraday 2 Cycle, and the Intraday Cycle 3. However, each shipper’s resulting scheduled quantity for the Gas Day will be no less than the elapsed prorated scheduled quantity for that shipper. T N SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY Revised CAL.

Backbone Transmission Capacity (Continued) Each day, the Utility will use the following rules to confirm nominations to the Receipt Point and Backbone Transmission Zone maximum operating capacities. The Utility will also use the following rules to confirm nominations to the system capacity limitation as defined in Section F for OFO events during the Intraday 1 and Intraday 2 cycles; and during the Intraday 2 cycle when an OFO event is not called and nominations exceed system capacity. Confirmation Order:  Nominations using Firm Primary backbone transportation rights will be first; pro-rated if over-nominated*.  Nominations using Firm Alternate backbone transportation rights within the associated transmission zone will be second (“Firm Alternate Within-the-Zone”); pro-rated if over- nominated.  Nominations using Firm Alternate backbone transportation rights outside the associated transmission zone will be third (“Firm Alternate Outside-the-Zone”); pro-rated if over- nominated.  Nominations using Interruptible backbone transportation rights will be fourth, pro-rated if over-nominated.  Southern Transmission Receipt Points will not be reduced in any cycle below 110% of the Southern System minimum flowing supply requirement established by the Gas Control Department. Bumping Rules:  Firm Primary rights can “bump” any Firm Alternate scheduled quantities through the Evening Cycle.  Firm Alternate Within-the-Zone rights can “bump” Firm Alternate Outside-the-Zone scheduled quantities through the Evening Cycle.  Firm Primary and any Firm Alternate can “bump” interruptible scheduled quantities through the Intraday 2 Cycle subject to the NAESB elapsed pro-rata rules.  Bumping will not be allowed in the Intraday 3 Cycle. * If the available firm capacity at a particular receipt point or within a particular transmission zone is less than the firm capacity figures stated in Schedule No. G-BTS, scheduling of firm backbone transportation capacity nominations will be pro rata within each scheduling cycle. Any nominations of firm backbone transportation rights acquired through the addition of Displacement Backbone Transmission Capacity facilities will be reduced pro rata to zero at the applicable receipt point or within the applicable transmission zone prior to other firm backbone transportation rights nominations being reduced.

Confirmation and Ranking Process A ranking must be received by the Utility at the time the nomination or the confirmation is submitted. The nominating party will rank its supplies and the confirming party will rank its markets. The Utility will then balance the pipeline system using the “lesser of” rule and the rankings submitted. The ranking will automatically roll from cycle-to-cycle and day-to-day until the nomination end date, unless modified by the nominating entity. If no ranking is submitted at the time the nomination is submitted, the Utility will assign the lowest ranking to the nomination. The Utility will compare the nominations received for each transaction and the corresponding confirmation. If the two quantities do not agree, the “lesser of” the two quantities will be the quantity scheduled by the Utility. Subject to the Utility receiving notification of confirmed transportation from the applicable upstream pipeline(s) and/or operator(s), the Utility will provide scheduled quantities on EBB. 9. As between the customer and the Utility, the customer shall be deemed to be in control and possession of the gas to be delivered hereunder and responsible for any damage or injury caused thereby until the gas has been delivered at the point(s) of receipt. The Utility shall thereafter be deemed to be in control and possession of the gas after delivery to the Utility at the point(s) of receipt and shall be responsible for any damage or injury caused thereby until the same shall have been redelivered at the point(s) of delivery, unless the damage or injury has been caused by the quality of gas originally delivered to the Utility, for which the customer shall remain responsible. 10. Any penalties or charges incurred by the Utility under an interstate or intrastate supplier contract as a result of accommodating transportation service shall be paid by the responsible customer. 11. Customers receiving service from the Utility for the transportation of customer-owned gas shall pay any costs incurred by the Utility because of any failure by third parties to perform their obligations related to providing such service.

The customer's transportation service priority shall be established in accordance with the definitions of Core and Noncore service, as set forth in Rule No. 1, and the provisions of Rule No. 23, Continuity of Service and Interruption of Delivery. If the customer's gas use is classified in more than one service priority, it is the customer's responsibility to inform the Utility of such priorities applicable to the customer's service. Once established, such priorities cannot be changed during a curtailment period. 2. The Utility shall have the right, without liability (except for the express provisions of the Utility's Service Interruption Credit as set forth in Rule No. 23), to interrupt the acceptance or redelivery of gas whenever it becomes necessary to test, alter, modify, enlarge or repair any facility or property comprising the Utility's system or otherwise related to its operation. When doing so, the Utility will try to cause a minimum of inconvenience to the customer. Except in cases of unforeseen emergency, the Utility shall give a minimum of ten (10) days advance written notice of such activity. F. Nominations in Excess of System Capacity – High Operational Flow Order 1. The Utility System Operator’s protocol for declaring a High Operational Flow Order (High OFO) is described in Rule No. 41. Any High OFO shall apply to all customers, including wholesale customers and the Utility Gas Procurement Department. 2. The High OFO period shall begin on the flow date(s) indicated by the Utility Gas Control Department. Customers shall be allowed to reduce their nominations or adjust their supply ranking in response to the High OFO. 3. In the event customers fail to adequately reduce their transportation nominations, the Utility shall reduce the confirmed receipt point access nominations as defined in Section D. 4. In accordance with the provisions of Schedule No. G-IMB, Buy-Back service shall be applied separately to each High OFO day. Customer meters subject to maximum daily quantity limitations will use the maximum daily quantity as a proxy for daily usage. For the Utility Gas Procurement Department, the Daily Forecast Quantity will be used as a proxy for daily usage. For core aggregators, their Daily Contract Quantity will be used as a proxy for daily usage. 5. A California Producer, with an effective California Producer Operational Balancing Agreement, Form 6452, will be subject to Schedule No. G-IMB Buy-Back service during excess nominations days (i.e., High OFO days). For each OFO day, the Utility shall cash out, at the Retail Buy-Back Rate as described in Schedule No. G-IMB, all of an individual California Producer’s actual deliveries that are in excess of 110% of that particular California Producer’s scheduled quantities for that High OFO day. The High OFO day imbalance of a California Producer with an existing access agreement will be treated consistent with the terms of that access agreement. 6.

The Low OFO shall apply to all customers financially responsible for managing and clearing transportation imbalances (Balancing Agents), including wholesale customers, Contracted Marketers, core aggregators, California Gas Producers and the Utility Gas Procurement Department. c. The Low OFO period shall begin on the flow date(s) indicated by the Utility Gas Control Department. Generally an initial Low OFO event will start at Stage 1; however a Low OFO event may begin at any stage as deemed appropriate by the Utility Gas Control Department with the corresponding noncompliance charge. d. A Low OFO will normally be ordered with at least twelve (12) hours notice prior to the beginning of the gas day, or as necessary as dictated by operating conditions. Charges for the first day of the Low OFO event will not be imposed if notice is given after 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time the day prior to the start of the Low OFO event. e. When a Low OFO is in effect interruptible storage withdrawals are limited to one half of the capacity normally available for interruptible withdrawals. Interruptible storage withdrawal capacity is equal to Withdrawal Capacity minus confirmed firm storage withdrawal nominations minus withdrawal allocated to the balancing function.

For a Noncore End-Use Customer with non-functioning AMR meters, compliance during a Low OFO or EFO will be based on the Customer’s actual daily metered usage; or the estimated daily usage in accordance with Section C of SoCalGas Rule 14 will be substituted for the actual daily metered usage when actual metered usage is not available. iii. For a Noncore End-Use Customer without AMR capability compliance during a Low OFO or EFO will be based on the Customer’s MinDQ. iv. For the Utility Gas Procurement Department, the Daily Forecast Quantity will be used as a proxy for daily usage. v. For core aggregators, their Daily Contract Quantity will be used as a proxy for daily usage. vi. For a California Producer with an effective California Producer Operational Balancing Agreement, Form 6452, compliance with a Low OFO and EFO and calculation of any noncompliance charges will be based on the difference between scheduled receipts and measured receipts for each day of an event. Low OFO and EFO compliance for a California Producer with an existing access agreement will be treated consistent with the terms of that access agreement. g. If a Balancing Agent’s Low OFO daily gas imbalance exceeds the applicable daily imbalance tolerance by 10,000 therms or less, the Low OFO, noncompliance charge will be zero. If the daily gas imbalance amount exceeds the daily imbalance tolerance by more than 10,000 therms, the Balancing Agent will be responsible for the full noncompliance charge; i.e. 10,000 therms will not be deducted from the daily gas imbalance that exceeds the daily imbalance tolerance. This exemption applies only to Low OFO noncompliance charges. N N | N SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY Original CAL. P.U.C. SHEET NO. 51655-G LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA CANCELING CAL. P.U.C. SHEET NO.

Collective Risk from Carcinogenic and Non-carcinogenic Constituents: i. If four consecutive quarterly tests demonstrate that the Health Protective Group 2 Compound’s collective cancer and non-cancer risk is below the Lower Action Level, monitoring can be reduced to once every 12-month period in which deliveries occur. ii. If annual testing demonstrates that the Health Protective Group 2 Compound’s collective cancer or non-cancer risk is at or above the Lower Action Level, then testing will revert to quarterly. 10. Biomethane Shut-Off and Restart Procedures: The Biomethane Interconnector may be shut-off when the following occurs: a. The CPUC determines that a change in the biogas source at the facility or the upgrading equipment will potentially increase the level of any constituent over the previously measured baseline levels. b. Testing indicates constituents are exceeding allowable concentration levels: i. The collective cancer or non-cancer risk from Health Protective Group 2 Compounds is found at or above the Lower Action Level three times in a 12-month period in which deliveries occur. ii. The collective cancer or non-cancer risk from Health Protective Group 2 Compounds is found at or above the Upper Action Level. iii. If applicable, a Pipeline Integrity Protective Constituent is found at or above the Lower Action Level three times in a 12-month period in which deliveries occur.

The Utility’s operational organization, procedures, and reporting requirements are described herein. STRUCTURE, PROCEDURES, AND PROTOCOLS 1. The mission of the Utility System Operator is to maintain system reliability and integrity while minimizing costs at all times. 2. The term “Utility System Operator” as defined in Rule No.1 denotes all of the applicable departments within Southern California Gas Company and San Diego Gas & Electric Company responsible for the physical and commercial operation of the pipeline and storage systems specifically excluding the Utility Gas Procurement Department. The activities involved in meeting any physical flowing gas supply requirements as determined by the Gas Control Department are conducted by the Operational Hub. 3. The Gas Control Department is the sole authority for: operating the pipeline and storage system, developing the system sendout (i.e., demand) forecasts to be used for purposes of determining on a daily basis Southern System minimum flow requirements, and for issuing Operational Flow Orders (“OFOs”). 4. The Gas Control Department will fully utilize storage injection capacity prior to issuing a High OFO. The Gas Control Department is responsible for calculating forecasted sendout and physical storage injection capacity. For every nomination cycle, the Gas Scheduling Department shall calculate the system capacity as the sum of forecasted sendout, physical storage injection capacity, and off-system scheduled quantities. The forecasted system capacity shall then be compared to the latest on-system scheduled quantities. The following table summarizes which scheduled quantities are used in each cycle for the High OFO calculation for both on-system and off-system volumes: N N SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY Revised CAL.

STRUCTURE, PROCEDURES, AND PROTOCOLS (Continued) 5. SoCalGas will issue a Low OFO if, on a day prior to this Gas Day, in the sole judgment of Gas Control, the system forecast of storage withdrawal used for balancing exceeds the withdrawal capacity allocated to the balancing function. When a Low OFO is issued customers financially responsible for managing and clearing transportation imbalances (Balancing Agent) will be required to balance supply and demand on a daily basis within a specified tolerance band or be subject to charges for noncompliance. SoCalGas may elect not to issue a Low OFO for a Gas Day if the system forecast for the following gas day indicates the use of storage withdrawal used for system balancing will return to reasonable levels without the assistance of a Low OFO. System linepack will not be part of the formula used by Gas Control to determine when a Low OFO should be issued. The criteria for determining Low OFOs may be revised as needed by SoCalGas to maintain the safety and reliability of the pipeline system. These changes, along with a supporting explanation, will be posted as a regular notice on the SoCalGas Envoy EBB. Utility will revise their current Low OFO formula so that the balancing trigger is based on operational constraints. Utility will have the sole discretion to set the level of withdrawal capacity available for balancing based on operational conditions. To the extent operationally feasible, Utility will attempt to maximize the amount of withdrawal capacity available for balancing, up to the amount of withdrawal capacity allocated to the balancing function. Utility will continue to post any changes to the low OFO formula on the SoCalGas Envoy EBB. Utility will provide a cycle-by- cycle low OFO calculation on the SoCalGas Envoy EBB.* 6. Should SoCalGas’ implementation of a Low OFO prove to be inadequate to ensure system integrity, SoCalGas may implement other measures including, but not limited to, implementing an Emergency Flow Order (EFO). SoCalGas may invoke EFOs when a forecast or an actual supply and/or capacity shortage threatens deliveries to End-Use Customers. An EFO will normally be invoked following a Low OFO but SoCalGas may invoke an EFO without previously invoking a Low OFO if, in SoCalGas’ judgment, emergency operating conditions exist. There shall be no minimum notice period for EFOs: however SoCalGas will attempt to provide as much notification to Customers as practicable under the circumstances. 7. The minimum flowing supply for the Southern System is a function of the forecasted gas demand for the Southern System, including SDG&E demand, less the capability to provide additional supplies to the Southern System from the Northern System or storage, and other factors, such as but not limited to: the state of the Southern System, demand and supply available on the remainder of the Utility system, and expectations of changing demand patterns. The Gas Control Department estimates the level of demand and the capability to transport supply from the Northern System or storage each day.

The Operational Hub will use the tools authorized by the Commission to support the Southern System minimum flow requirement, including the purchase/sale of spot gas supplies, and the issuance of “Requests For Offers” (RFOs) for proposals to enable the Utility to manage its minimum flow requirements to the Southern System delivery points (in accordance with Sections 9 and 10 below), and the movement of supplies between the Blythe and Otay Mesa Southern System delivery points. All purchases and sales of spot gas to support the minimum flow requirement will be made subject to Sections 11 and 12 below, and the movement of supplies between the Blythe and Otay Mesa Southern System delivery points will be made subject to Section 15 below. The initial daily quantity of needed supplies will be determined by the Gas Control Department based on the following formula: Minimum Flowing Supply Requirement minus Best Available Scheduled Quantities Reflecting Customer Flows into the Southern System = Additional Supplies Needed by the Gas Control Department “Best Available Scheduled Quantities” are the last available scheduled quantities. The last available scheduled quantities will be adjusted by the Gas Control Department to account for revised customer nominations for a particular day if the last available scheduled quantities cannot be achieved on the day in question. On those days a lower number would be utilized to reflect expected deliveries. The same would apply if the Gas Control Department becomes aware of pipeline issues such as approaching maintenance or lack of upstream pipeline/supplier performance, in which case the last available scheduled quantities would be reduced to reflect the expected deliveries. 9. Whenever the Gas Control Department determines that additional supplies are needed for the Southern System, the Gas Control Department will promptly contact the Operational Hub for assistance. The Operational Hub will attempt to acquire needed supplies in accordance with Sections 9 through 19 below. T T SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY Revised CAL. P.U.C.

STRUCTURE, PROCEDURES, AND PROTOCOLS (Continued) 10. The Gas Control Department shall be physically separated from those departments engaging in marketing/sales activities, shall have no knowledge of or involvement in any marketing/sales activities, and shall be strictly concerned with the operation, safety, and integrity of the pipeline and storage system. The Operational Hub shall have no access to non-public customer-specific information other than the information it obtains through its own contracts, negotiations, and discussions with customers. The Gas Control Department may communicate with the Operational Hub to discuss changes to the Southern System minimum flow requirements, circumstances that might require the Operational Hub to obtain supplies, and options to ensure minimum flowing supplies requirements are met. Discussions may also take place with regard to short-term operational needs for flowing supplies to support system reliability elsewhere on the system that may arise to support operations and maintenance (O&M) activities, related pipeline integrity work, or to address a force majeure event such as a line breakage or failure. PURCHASES AND SALES TO MANAGE MINIMUM FLOW SUPPLIES 11. The Utility shall issue an RFO at least annually for proposals enabling the Utility to manage its minimum flow requirements to the Southern System delivery points for system reliability. The Utility, at its sole discretion, may enter into transactions with one or more RFO respondents to provide the best value to the Utility’s customers based upon the Utility’s evaluation criteria. The RFO shall not be a binding offer by the Utility to enter into a contract for any product(s) or service(s). The Utility shall reserve the right to reject any or all offers submitted in response to the RFO. 12. Any contract with an RFO respondent will be conditioned on the Utility obtaining the prior approval of the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) acceptable to the Utility. Respondent offers will be considered non-binding until a definitive agreement is reached between the respondent and the Utility, and the CPUC issues an order approving the definitive agreement memorializing the terms and conditions of the transaction between the respondent and the Utility. 13. Except for transactions related to the Utility Gas Procurement Department's role as "provider of last resort" (addressed below in Section 12), any gas commodity purchases and sales between the Operational Hub and the Utility Gas Procurement Department or an affiliate of Sempra Energy will occur through an Independent Party, where the counterparties are not known until after the transaction is completed. “Independent Party” refers to gas trading exchanges such as the Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), gas brokers who have been instructed to provide no preference to Sempra affiliates or to the Utility Gas Procurement Department, or open auctions available to all qualified parties conducted by the Operational Hub, in which gas purchases or sales are made with counter-parties that are not known until after the transaction is completed.

PURCHASES AND SALES TO MANAGE MINIMUM FLOW SUPPLIES (Continued) 14. The Utility Gas Procurement Department will act on a best-efforts basis to provide gas supplies based on the Operational Hub’s request if called upon as a provider of last resort. “Provider of last resort” relates to the circumstance in which the Operational Hub has attempted to use all other available tools, has entered the open market for gas commodity purchases, has been unsuccessful in meeting its need to receive a required volume of flowing supplies at a specific location, and system reliability is therefore jeopardized. If the Operational Hub has exhausted its other options available to acquire the required flowing supplies, it will contact the Utility Gas Procurement Department and request that it provide gas to meet the remaining minimum flow requirement. Such requests will occur as soon as possible during the actual flow day. The Utility Gas Procurement Department will charge the Operational Hub the actual incremental costs incurred to provide the specific supplies. Verification that the Utility has followed this procedure will be included in the annual compliance report provided to the CPUC in conjunction with the Advice Letter addressed in Section 25 below. 15. Standards and criteria for spot purchases or sales of gas commodity for which standards and criteria are not specified in CPUC-approved contracts shall be as follows: a. Should it be necessary for the Operational Hub to purchase or sell spot supplies of gas in the day-ahead market, the Operational Hub shall be deemed to have made reasonable (1) spot purchases if the purchase price is less than or equal to 110% of the ICE Wtd Avg Index for the flow date for the relevant trading point and (2) spot sales if the sale price is greater than or equal to 90% of the ICE Wtd Avg Index for the flow date for the relevant trading point. b. Should it be necessary for the Operational Hub to purchase or sell spot supplies of gas in the intraday market, the Operational Hub shall be deemed to have made reasonable (1) spot purchases if the purchase price is less than or equal to 110% of the ICE High for the current flow date for the relevant trading point and (2) spot sales if the sale price is greater than or equal to 90% of the ICE Low for the current flow date for the relevant trading point.

PURCHASES AND SALES TO MANAGE MINIMUM FLOW SUPPLIES (Continued) 16. Purchases or sales at prices that are outside the ranges specified in Section 13 (a) and (b) above shall nevertheless be deemed reasonable if the Operational Hub abides by the following procedure: When the Gas Control Department determines that spot purchases are necessary to meet minimum flow requirements, the Operational Hub shall monitor ICE and record the relevant price information, if available, for deliveries of gas at all relevant trading points. If volumes available on ICE meet or exceed the minimum flow requirements, transactions for the volumes offered through ICE shall be deemed reasonable. The Operational Hub may also post an offer/bid on ICE for volumes. When less than the required volumes are available on ICE, the Operational Hub shall contact gas suppliers (other than the Utility Gas Procurement Department or affiliates), request offers for the necessary supplies, and record their offers for gas delivered to the relevant trading points to ensure at least three offers from three different suppliers are available for comparison. The Operational Hub shall compare prices posted on ICE and, if applicable, prices quoted by its supplier contacts, and select the best prices available to meet the quantities required to meet minimum flow requirements. Verification that the Operational Hub has followed this procedure shall be provided to the CPUC in the Annual Compliance Report described in Section 25 below. 17. When the Gas Control Department determines that deliveries at Otay Mesa are necessary to meet minimum flow requirements, such requirements may be satisfied either through spot purchases at Otay Mesa or through the movement of supplies from Blythe to Otay Mesa. Standards and criteria for spot purchases are set forth above. Should it be necessary for the Operational Hub to move supplies from Blythe to Otay Mesa, the movement shall be deemed to be reasonable if (1) the cost of moving the supplies is less than or equal to the difference between the ICE Wtd Avg Index for the Blythe and the cost of spot gas available for purchase at Otay Mesa for the relevant flow date, or (2) if sufficient spot supplies are not available for purchase at Otay Mesa for the relevant flow date, and the movement fills some or all of the shortfall between supplies needed at Otay Mesa and supplies available for purchase at Otay Mesa. 18. Purchases and sales other than those described in Sections 14 and 15 above will not be deemed unreasonable but shall be subject to review and any requests for explanation by the CPUC Energy Division in conjunction with the Annual Compliance Report described in Section 25 below. 19. Standards, criteria and procedures set forth in Sections 13, 14, 15 and 16 apply to Operational Hub’s purchases and sales as of April 1, 2009. 20. Should the Operational Hub deem it necessary or advisable to enter into baseload contracts for Southern System support at one or more of the Southern System receipt points, the Operational Hub shall be deemed to have made reasonable baseload purchases if: (1) the total cumulative baseload volumes at any time are less than or equal to 255,000 Dth/day; (2) the price is less than or equal to T T T T T SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY Revised CAL.

DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE The Utility System Operator will provide a Monthly Imbalance Service for individual customers including the Utility Gas Procurement Department, end-use customers, wholesale customers, marketers and aggregators (referred to herein as "customers") when their usage differs from their transportation deliveries to the Utility's system or their targeted sales gas quantities purchased and delivered by the Utility. In case of the Utility Gas Procurement Department, the Daily Forecast Quantity will be used as a proxy for daily usage and the calculation of imbalances. The Monthly Imbalance Service provided hereunder has four components: Imbalance Trading, a no- charge Balancing Service, Standby Procurement, and Buy-Back. Under the Imbalance Trading Service, customers may locate other customers with offsetting imbalances and trade these quantities to avoid imbalance charges (Standby Procurement or Buy-Back). Imbalance Trading Service shall be facilitated either through Electronic Bulletin Board (EBB), as defined in Rule No. 1, or through the Imbalance Trading Form as described in Special Conditions 2 and 4 of this Schedule and in Rule No. 33. Balancing Service will be provided without charge if the cumulative imbalance at the end of the monthly imbalance trading period is within 10 percent of the customer's usage, in case of core aggregators their applicable Daily Contract Quantity, or in the case of the Utility Gas Procurement Department the applicable Daily Forecast Quantity, (Tolerance Band) for the billing period. Any remaining cumulative imbalance within the tolerance band will be carried forward. Remaining imbalance quantities outside the tolerance band at the end of the imbalance trading period will be subject to a Standby Procurement Charge or Buy-Back as described under Rates. APPLICABILITY Applicable to core and noncore transportation service to customers. TERRITORY Applicable throughout the service territory. RATES Imbalance quantities remaining at the end of the designated imbalance trading period and which are outside of the 10% tolerance band will be billed at the Standby Procurement Charge or purchased by the Utility at the Buy-Back Rate. Any Standby Procurement Charge or purchases at the Buy-Back Rate of core imbalances created by the Utility Gas Procurement Department will be managed within the Utility System Operator’s Operational Hub Services. Such core imbalances will be disposed of, with the net revenues from the core imbalance charges flowing back through the Noncore Fixed Cost Account (NFCA).

Imbalances of customers other than the Utility Gas Procurement Department or ESPs will be calculated by combining all of a customer's meters served under the same order control code, not by account or individual delivery point. The order control code is used by the Utility to group those facilities identified by the customer for determining the customer's imbalances. In the case of the Utility Gas Procurement Department the applicable Daily Forecast Quantity will be used. In the case of ESPs their applicable Daily Contract Quantity (DCQ) will be used. 3. Immediately each month when actual meter usage information becomes available, an adjustment to the Utility Gas Procurement Department’s imbalance account will be made to account for any differences between actual consumption of the core customers and the Daily Forecast Quantity, company use and LUAF. 4. Immediately each month when actual meter usage information becomes available, an adjustment to the ESP’s imbalance account will be made to account for any differences between actual consumption of the core customers and the DCQ. 5. Customers may not use imbalance trading to offset imbalances in excess of the daily imbalance tolerances applicable during an OFO or EFO event.

Customers may trade their monthly imbalances with other customers. Customer's cumulative imbalances will be stated on the customer's monthly bill. The customer's bill will serve as notice of current imbalances. Beginning at 7:00 a.m., Pacific Clock Time (PCT), on the 25th calendar day in the month of notification, customers may enter EBB to trade imbalances with other customers. Customers within the tolerance band may trade any quantities so long as the 10% tolerance band is not exceeded. Customers outside the tolerance band may trade quantities up to a maximum of their excess imbalance (quantities outside of tolerance) plus the 10% tolerance band. The Utility will notify participants through EBB or other notice once the trade is validated. The trading period will end at 11:59 p.m. PCT on the last calendar day of the same month. During the month of February, the trading period begins at 7:00 a.m. PCT on the 23rd of the month and ends at 11:59 p.m. PCT on the last calendar day of the month. The trading periods are as follows: January 25-31 May 25-31 September 25-30 February 23-28 (or 29) June 25-30 October 25-31 March 25-31 July 25-31 November 25-30 April 25-30 August 25-31 December 25-31 7. Imbalance trades may be submitted through EBB or by facsimile using the Imbalance Trading Agreement Form (Form No. 6544) and must be received by the Utility by the close of the trading period. To submit an imbalance trade by facsimile, both parties must complete and send by facsimile a copy of the Imbalance Trading Agreement Form to the Utility. The Utility will then confirm the trade and adjust the participants' imbalance accounts. A processing charge of $13.73 will be charged by the Utility for each imbalance trade submitted by facsimile using the Imbalance Trading Agreement Form. No processing charge will apply to an EBB subscriber for imbalance trades submitted by facsimile at a time the EBB system is unavailable for use by the subscriber. 8. Customers may opt to participate in the EBB’s interactive trading platform in which imbalance trading parties may buy and/or sell imbalance gas. Instructions are provided on the EBB website. 9. Customers may use their storage account(s) to offset their imbalances or to trade with other customers under the conditions set forth in their applicable storage service rate schedule for unbundled storage service, or in Rule No. 32 for Aggregators. A storage customer may trade positive imbalances, i.e., overdeliveries, into its storage account only if its storage inventory capacity is available during the month that the imbalance occurred and at the time the imbalance trade takes place. Similarly, a storage customer may trade negative imbalances, i.e., underdeliveries, using its storage account only if there is sufficient gas in storage in the account during the month that the imbalance occurred and at the time the imbalance trade takes place.

After the imbalance trading period, the Standby Procurement Charge or Buy-Back Rate will be applied to all imbalance quantities in excess of the tolerance band. 11. When in the judgment of the Utility Gas Control Department the latest scheduled quantities are in excess of system capacity, Buy-Back service hereunder shall be applied to daily periods as designated by the Utility in accordance with the provisions of Rule No. 30, Section F. Customers shall not be allowed to trade positive imbalances incurred during such daily periods. The Buy-Back Rate shall apply to all positive imbalances in excess of the 10% tolerance band for each such period. The high OFO tolerance will be either 105% or 110%. The default will be 105%, but SoCalGas and SDG&E will have the ability to set the tolerance at 110% if, in SoCalGas’ and SDG&E’s sole discretion, operational circumstances allow. The high OFO tolerance is temporary and will return to 110% upon the expiration of the term in the settlement approved by the Commission in D._______. Specifically, that settlement term will conclude upon the earlier of: (1) any superseding decision or order by the Commission, (2) return of Aliso Canyon to at least 450 MMcfd of injection capacity and 1,395 MMcfd of withdrawal capacity, or (3) November 30, 2016. Standby service shall be provided for the regular monthly balancing period and shall not be restricted to the excess nominations periods. 12. Under this schedule, the responsible customer will reimburse the Utility for any penalties or charges incurred by the Utility under an interstate or intrastate supplier arrangement when such penalties or charges occur as a direct result of the Utility's providing this imbalance service to customer. 13. If as the result of billing error, metering error, or transportation adjustments, customer trades an incorrect amount of imbalance quantities based on notification by the Utility, the Utility will not be liable for any financial losses or damages incurred by customer nor will the Utility be financially liable to any of the customer's imbalance trading partners. If as a result of such error, the Utility overbills customer, the Utility shall refund the difference. If the Utility underbills customer, the customer shall be liable for the undercharge including any associated penalty. The customer shall not be relieved of imbalance penalties when a subsequent billing adjustment is made by the Utility. For the purpose of determining imbalances and any applicable charges hereunder, the Utility will include subsequent billing adjustments for prior periods as part of the usage deemed to occur during the subsequent period unless the customer reimburses the Utility for the actual cost of gas incurred. Trades occurring in prior periods will not be affected by such billing adjustments. The Utility may issue a bill for Daily Balancing Standby Rate charges on a weekly or fortnightly basis upon customer or marketer request or if a customer or marketer delivers into the system less than 50 percent of its usage. Otherwise, Daily Balancing Standby Rate charges shall be included in the regular monthly bill. 14.

No. 2037-G-A Lee Schavrien Effective Oct 1, 2011 Senior Vice President Decision No. 10-03-028 Regulatory Affairs Resolution No. This rule describes the general terms and conditions applicable whenever the Utility System Operator transports customer-owned gas, including wholesale customers, Utility Gas Procurement Department, other end–use customers, aggregators, marketers, and storage customers (referred to herein as "customers") gas over its system. Customers who wish to transport gas must sign the applicable agreements. A. General 1. Subject to the terms, limitations and conditions of this rule and any applicable CPUC authorized tariff schedule, directive, or rule, the customer will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Utility and accept on redelivery quantities of gas which shall not exceed Utility's capability to receive or redeliver such quantities. Utility will accept such quantities of gas from the customer or its designee and redeliver to the customer on a reasonably concurrent basis an equivalent quantity, on a therm basis, to the quantity accepted. 2. The customer warrants to the Utility that the customer has the right to deliver the gas provided for in the customer's applicable service agreement or contract (hereinafter "service agreement") and that the gas is free from all liens and adverse claims of every kind. The customer will indemnify, defend and hold the Utility harmless against any costs and expenses on account of royalties, payments or other charges applicable before or upon delivery to the Utility of the gas under such service agreement. 3. Gas Specifications Unless otherwise agreed to by the Utility, the gas delivered to the Utility must meet the quality specifications detailed in Section I, below. The minimum and maximum heating value and the pressure of the gas must be such that the gas can be integrated into the Utility’s system at the Receipt Point(s). 4. In order to protect the safety and integrity of its pipeline system the Utility reserves the right to institute such measures it deems necessary to alleviate the operating condition. B. Quantities 1. In-Kind Energy Charge and Uniform Deliveries The in-kind charge for transmission fuel is referenced in SoCalGas Schedule No. G-BTS. The Utility shall as nearly as practicable each day redeliver to customer and customer shall accept, a like quantity of gas as is delivered by the customer to the Utility on such day. It is the intention of both the Utility and the customer that the daily deliveries of gas by the customer for transportation hereunder shall approximately equal the quantity of gas which the customer shall receive at the points of delivery. However, it is recognized that due to operating conditions either (1) in the fields of production, (2) in the delivery facilities of third parties, or (3) in the Utility's system, deliveries into and redeliveries from the Utility's system may not balance on a day-to-day basis. The Utility and the customer will use all due diligence to assure proper load balancing in a timely manner. T T Revised Cal. P.U.C.

The gas to be transported hereunder shall be delivered and redelivered as nearly as practicable as uniform hourly and daily rates of flow. Utility may refuse to accept fluctuations in excess of ten percent (10%) of the previous day’s deliveries, from day to day, if in the Utility’s opinion receipt of such gas would jeopardize other operations. Customers may make arrangements acceptable to the Utility to waive this requirement. 3. The Utility does not undertake to redeliver to the customer any of the identical gas accepted by the Utility for transportation, and all redelivery of gas to the customer will be accomplished by substation on a therm-for-therm basis. 4. Transportation customers, including Utility Gas Procurement Department, wholesale customers, contracted marketers, and Core Transport Agents will be provided monthly balancing services in accordance with the provisions of Schedule G-IMB. C. Electronic Bulletin Board 1. Utility prefers and encourages customers, including Utility Gas Procurement Department, to use Electronic Bulletin Board (EBB) as defined in Rule 1 to submit their transportation nominations to the Utility. Imbalance trades are to be submitted through EBB or by means of the Imbalance Trading Agreement Form (Form 6544). Use of the EBB is not mandatory for transportation only customers. 2. Transportation nominations may be submitted manually or through EBB. D. Operational Requirements 1. The customer must provide to the Utility the name(s) of its shipper(s) as well as any brokers or agents ("agent") used by the customer for delivery of gas to the Utility for transportation service hereunder and their authority to represent customer.

Backbone Transmission Capacity (Continued) The Utility System Operator will accept scheduled volumes for each Receipt Point from the upstream interconnecting pipeline or operator to the maximum operating capacity of that individual point. The maximum operating capacity is defined as the facility design or contractual limitation to deliver gas into the Utility System Operator’s system adjusted for operational constraints (i.e. maintenance, localized restrictions, upstream delivery pressures) as determined each day. 4. Storage Service Capacity Each day, storage injection and withdrawal capacities will be set at their physical operating maximums under the operating conditions for that day and posted on the Utility System Operator’s EBB. Injection nominations will be held to the injection capacity specified in the Operational Flow Order calculation on the EBB in every flowing cycle regardless of OFO status.* The Utility System Operator will use the following rules to limit the nominations to the storage maximums.  Nominations using Firm storage rights will have first priority, pro-rated to the available firm storage capacity.  All other Nominations using Interruptible storage rights will have second priority, pro-rated if over-nominated based on the daily volumetric price paid.  Firm storage rights can “bump” interruptible scheduled quantities through the Intraday 3 cycle. Notice to the bumped parties will be provided via the Transactions module in EBB. Bumping is subject to the NAESB elapsed pro rata rules. 5. Off-System Delivery Service For each flow date, the Utility System Operator will determine if interruptible capacity is available for off-system deliveries. Such service will use the available displacement of forward haul flowing supplies. For each nomination cycle, Utility customers who have contracted with the Utility for off-system delivery service may submit a nomination for such service pursuant to rate G-OSDI, as contained in SoCalGas Schedule G-OSD, for deliveries to PG&E Points. Scheduling of Off-System Delivery Services will be pro rata within each scheduling cycle whenever the available off-system capacity is less than the off-system confirmations. T Revised Cal. P.U.C.

Timing (Continued) Intraday 4 Cycle (Continued) Intraday 4 nominations are available only for firm nominations relating to the injection of existing flowing supplies into a storage account or for firm nominations relating to the withdrawal of gas in storage to meet an identified customer’s usage. A customer may make Intraday 4 nominations from a third-party storage provider that is directly connected to the Utility System Operator’s system or from the Utility System Operator’s storage, subject to the storage provider or the Utility System Operator being able to deliver or accept the daily quantity nominated for Intraday 4 within the remaining hours of the flow day and the Utility System Operator’s having the ability to deliver or accept the required hourly equivalent flow rate during the remaining hours of the flow day. Third-party storage providers will be treated on a comparable basis with the Utility System Operator’s storage facilities to the extent that it can provide the equivalent service and operations. 8. Confirmation and Ranking Process A ranking must be received by the Utility System Operator at the time the nomination or the confirmation is submitted. The nominating party will rank its supplies and the confirming party will rank its markets. The Utility System Operator will then balance the pipeline system using the “lesser of” rule and the rankings submitted. The ranking will automatically roll from cycle-to-cycle and day-to-day until the nomination end date, unless modified by the nominating entity. If no ranking is submitted at the time the nomination is submitted, the Utility System Operator will assign the lowest ranking to the nomination. The Utility System Operator will compare the nominations received for each transaction and the corresponding confirmation. If the two quantities do not agree, the “lesser of” the two quantities will be the quantity scheduled by the Utility System Operator. Subject to the Utility System Operator receiving notification of confirmed transportation from the applicable upstream pipeline(s) and/or operator(s), the Utility System Operator will provide scheduled quantities on EBB. 9. As between the customer and the Utility System Operator, the customer shall be deemed to be in control and possession of the gas to be delivered hereunder and responsible for any damage or injury caused thereby until the gas has been delivered at the point(s) of receipt. The Utility System Operator shall thereafter be deemed to be in control and possession of the gas after delivery to the Utility System Operator at the point(s) of receipt and shall be responsible for any damage or injury caused thereby until the same shall have been redelivered at the point(s) of delivery, unless the damage or injury has been caused by the quality of gas originally delivered to the Utility System Operator, for which the customer shall remain responsible.

Low Operational Flow Order (continued) f. Low OFO and EFO compliance and charges will be based on the following for determination of daily usage quantities: i. For a Noncore End-Use Customer equipped with an automated meter reading device (AMR) and SDG&E’s Electric & Fuel Procurement Department, compliance during a Low OFO will be based on actual daily metered usage, and the calculation after the Low OFO event of any applicable noncompliance charges will be based on actual daily metered usage. ii. For a Noncore End-Use Customer with non-functioning AMR, compliance during a Low OFO or EFO will be based on the Customer’s actual daily metered usage; or the estimated daily usage in accordance with Section C of SDG&E Rule 17 will be substituted for the actual daily metered usage when it is not available. iii. For a Noncore End-Use Customer without AMR, compliance during a Low OFO or EFO will be based on the Customer’s Minimum Daily Quantity. iv. For the Utility Gas Procurement Department, the Daily Forecast Quantity will be used as a proxy for daily usage. v. For core aggregators, their Daily Contract Quantity will be used as a proxy for daily usage. g. If a Balancing Agent’s Low OFO daily gas imbalance exceeds the applicable daily imbalance tolerance by 10,000 therms or less, the Low OFO noncompliance charge will be zero. If the daily gas imbalance amount exceeds the daily imbalance tolerance by more than 10,000 therms, the Balancing Agent will be responsible for the full noncompliance charge; i.e., 10,000 therms will not be deducted from the daily gas imbalance that exceeds the daily imbalance tolerance. This exemption applies only to Low OFO noncompliance charges. h. The daily measurement quantity used to calculate a noncompliance charge for each Low OFO event will be the daily quantity recorded as of the month-end close of the applicable month. i. Low OFO noncompliance charges for the gas flow day will be waived when the confirmation process limiting nominations to system capacity cuts previously scheduled BTS nominations during any of the Intraday 1-3 Cycles.* h. Utility will have the discretion to waive OFO noncompliance charges for an electric generation customer who was dispatched after the Intraday 1 (Cycle 3) nomination deadline in response to (1) a Utility System Operator request to an Electric Grid Operator to reallocate dispatched electric generation load to help maintain gas system reliability and integrity, or (2) an Electric Grid Operator request to the Utility System Operator to help maintain electric system reliability and integrity that can be accommodated by the Utility System Operator at its sole discretion.

The EFO shall apply to all customers financially responsible for managing and clearing transportation imbalances (Balancing Agents), including wholesale customers, Contracted Marketers, core aggregators, California Gas Producers and the Utility Gas Procurement Department. d. When an EFO is in effect, interruptible storage withdrawals are limited to one half of the capacity normally available for interruptible withdrawals. Interruptible storage withdrawal capacity is equal to withdrawal capacity minus confirmed firm storage withdrawal nominations minus withdrawal allocated to the balancing function. e. Daily measurement quantities used to determine EFO compliance and charges are the same as those used to determine Low OFO compliance and charges. f. The daily measurement quantity used to calculate the noncompliance charges for each EFO event will be the daily quantity recorded as of the month-end close of the applicable month. 3. Information regarding the System Sendout, Withdrawal Capacity and Net Withdrawals will be made available to customers on a daily basis via the EBB. 4. If a wholesale customer so requests, the Utility System Operator will nominate firm storage withdrawal volumes on behalf of the customer to match 100% of actual usage assuming the customer has sufficient firm storage withdrawl and inventory rights to match the customer’s supply and demand. 5. The Utility System Operator will accept intra-day nominations to increase deliveries. 6. In all cases, current rules for monthly balancing and monthly imbalance trading continue to apply. Quantities not in compliance with the Daily Imbalance Tolerance that are purchased at the daily balancing standby rate, are credited toward the monthly 90% delivery requirements. Daily balancing charges remain independent of monthly balancing charges. Noncore daily balancing and monthly balancing charges are booked to the SoCalGas Purchased Gas Account (PGA). Net revenues from core daily balancing and monthly balancing charges go to the SoCalGas Noncore Fixed Cost Account (NFCA). Schedule G- IMB provides details on monthly and daily balancing charges. .

Biomethane Constituent Testing shall be based on the biomethane source: a. Biomethane from landfills shall be tested for all Health Protective Constituents and the Pipeline Integrity Protective Constituents. b. Biomethane from dairies shall be tested for Ethylbenzene, Hydrogen Sulfide, n- Nitroso-di-n-propylamine, Mercaptans, Toluene, and the Pipeline Integrity Protective Constituents. c. Other organic waste sources, including biomethane from publicly owned treatment works (i.e., water treatment and sewage treatment plants) shall be tested for p- Dichlorobenzene, Ethylbenzene, Hydrogen Sulfide, Mercaptans, Toluene, Vinyl Chloride, and the Pipeline Integrity Protective Constituents. 7. Collective Health Risk a. Group 1 Compounds are Constituents with a concentration below the test detection level or below the Trigger Level. b. Group 2 Compounds are Constituents with a concentration at or above the Trigger Level. c. For health protective Group 2 Compounds, the collective cancer and non-cancer risk from Carcinogenic and Non-carcinogenic Constituents must be calculated by summing the Group 2 Compounds’ risk. i. Cancer Risk: The potential cancer risk for Group 2 Compounds can be estimated by summing the individual potential cancer risk for each carcinogenic constituent of concern. Specifically, the cancer risk can be calculated using the ratio of the concentration of the constituent in the biomethane to the health protective (“trigger”) concentration value corresponding to one in a million cancer risk for that specific constituent and then summing the risk for all the Group 2 Compounds.

Biomethane Pre-Interconnection Testing: a. Prior to the injection of biomethane, the Biomethane Interconnector shall conduct two tests over a two- to four-week period for the constituents identified for that biomethane source (see Section J.6). b. Pre-interconnection testing will be performed by Biomethane Interconnect using independent certified third party laboratories (Environmental Laboratory Accreditation Program (ELAP) certified, where applicable). The Utility shall be notified of the biomethane sampling and tests and have the option to observe the samples being taken. Test results will be shared with the Utility within five calendar days of the test results being received by the Biomethane Interconnector. c. During pre-injection testing the Biomethane’s collective potential cancer risk and non-cancer risk is calculated by summing the individual risk for each health protective Group 2 Compound. If the collective potential cancer risk or non-cancer risk is at or above the Lower Action Level (the cancer risk Lower Action Level is > 10 in a million and the non-cancer risk Lower Action Level is a Hazard Index of >1), the biomethane cannot be accepted or transported by the Utility’s pipeline system. The Biomethane Interconnector shall make necessary modifications to lower the collective potential cancer risk or non-cancer risk below the Lower Action Level and restart pre-injection testing. If the Health Protective Constituents are found to be below the Trigger Level or the collective cancer or non-cancer risk from the Health Protective Group 2 Compounds is below the Lower Action Level in both pre- injection tests, then the biomethane may be injected subject to compliance with the periodic testing requirements specified below.

If the Pipeline Integrity Protective Constituents are found to be below the Trigger Level in both pre-injection tests, then the biomethane may be injected subject to compliance with the periodic testing requirements specified below. 9. Biomethane Periodic Testing: a. Group 1 Compound Testing i. A Group 1 Compound shall be tested once every 12-month period in which deliveries occur. Thereafter, if the Group 1 Compound is found below the Trigger Level during two consecutive annual periodic tests, the Group 1 Compound may be tested once every two year-period in which deliveries occur. ii. A Group 1 Compound will become a Group 2 Compound if testing indicates a concentration at or above the Trigger Level. b. Group 2 Compound Testing i. A Group 2 Compound shall be tested quarterly (at least once every three- month period in which deliveries occur). ii. A Group 2 Compound will become a Group 1 Compound if testing indicates a concentration below the Trigger Level during four consecutive tests. c. Collective Risk from Carcinogenic and Non-carcinogenic Constituents: i. If four consecutive quarterly tests demonstrate that the Health Protective Group 2 Compound’s collective cancer and non-cancer risk is below the Lower Action Level, monitoring can be reduced to once every 12-month period in which deliveries occur. ii. If annual testing demonstrates that the Health Protective Group 2 Compound’s collective cancer or non-cancer risk is at or above the Lower Action Level, then testing will revert to quarterly.

Biomethane Shut-Off and Restart Procedures: The Biomethane Interconnector may be shut-off when the following occurs: a. The CPUC determines that a change in the biogas source at the facility or the upgrading equipment will potentially increase the level of any constituent over the previously measured baseline levels. b. Testing indicates constituents are exceeding allowable concentration levels: i. The collective cancer or non-cancer risk from Health Protective Group 2 Compounds is found at or above the Lower Action Level three times in a 12- month period in which deliveries occur. ii. The collective cancer or non-cancer risk from Health Protective Group 2 Compounds is found at or above the Upper Action Level. iii. If applicable, a Pipeline Integrity Protective Constituent is found at or above the Lower Action Level three times in a 12-month period in which deliveries occur. iv. The biomethane contains constituents at concentrations which prevent or restrict the normal marketing of biomethane, are at levels that are injurious to pipeline facilities, or are at levels that present a health and/or safety hazard to Utility employees and/or the general public. c. In order to restart injection after a Biomethane Interconnector has been shut-off, the Biomethane Interconnector shall test the biomethane using independent certified third party laboratories (ELAP certified where applicable). Deliveries can then resume, subject to the periodic testing requirements in Section J.9, if the test indicates: (1) the biomethane complies with the gas quality specifications contained in Section I of this Rule; (2) the collective cancer and non-cancer risk of Health Protective Group 2 Compounds is below the Lower Action Level; and, if applicable, (3) the Pipeline Integrity Protective Constituents are below the Lower Action Level.

In case of Utility Gas Procurement Department, the Daily Forecast Quantity will be used as a proxy for daily usage and the calculation of imbalances. The Monthly Imbalance Service provided hereunder has four components: Imbalance Trading, a no-charge Balancing Service, Standby Procurement, and Buy-Back. Under the Imbalance Trading Service, customers may locate other customers with offsetting imbalances and trade these quantities to avoid imbalance charges (Standby Procurement or Buy-Back). Imbalance Trading Service shall be facilitated either through Electronic Bulletin Board (EBB), as defined in Rule No. 1, or through the Imbalance Trading Form as described in Special Conditions 2 and 4 of this Schedule and in SoCalGas’ Rule No. 33. Balancing Service will be provided without charge if the cumulative imbalance at the end of the monthly imbalance trading period is within 10 percent of the customer's usage, in case of core aggregators their applicable Daily Contract Quantity, or in the case of Utility Gas Procurement Department the applicable Daily Forecast Quantity, (Tolerance Band) for the billing period. Any remaining cumulative imbalance within the tolerance band will be carried forward. Remaining imbalance quantities outside the tolerance band at the end of the imbalance trading period will be subject to a Standby Procurement Charge or Buy-Back as described under Rates. APPLICABILITY Applicable to core and noncore transportation service to customers. TERRITORY Applicable throughout the service territory. D Revised Cal. P.U.C.

Any Standby Procurement Charge or purchases at the Buy-Back Rate of core imbalances created by the Utility Gas Procurement Department will be managed within the Utility System Operator’s Operational Hub Services. Such core imbalances will be disposed of with the net revenues from the core imbalance charges flowing back through the SoCalGas Noncore Fixed Cost Account (NFCA). Standby Procurement Charge This charge is applied to customer’s cumulative negative transportation imbalance (confirmed transportation deliveries less actual usage) exceeding the 10 percent tolerance band. The Standby Procurement Charge is posted at least one day in advance of each corresponding imbalance trading period for noncore/wholesale and core transport agents (CTAs). It is calculated at 150% of the highest daily border price index at the Southern California Border beginning on the first day of the month that the imbalance is created to five days prior to the start of each corresponding imbalance trading period, plus the authorized Brokerage Fee of 0.151¢ per therm for noncore retail service and all wholesale service, and 0.151¢ per therm for core retail service.

Imbalances of customers other than Utility Gas Procurement Department or ESPs will be calculated by combining all of a customer's meters served under the same order control code, not by account or individual delivery point. The order control code is used by Utility to group those facilities identified by the customer for determining the customer's imbalances. In the case of Utility Gas Procurement Department the applicable Daily Forecast Quantity will be used. In the case of ESPs their applicable Daily Contract Quantity (DCQ) will be used 3. Immediately each month when actual meter usage information becomes available, an adjustment to the Utility Gas Procurement Department’s imbalance account will be made to account for any differences between actual consumption of the core customers and the Daily Forecast Quantity, company use and LUAF. 4. Immediately each month when actual meter usage information becomes available, an adjustment to the ESP’s imbalance account will be made to account for any differences between actual consumption of the core customers and the DCQ. 5. Customers may not use imbalance trading to offset imbalances in excess of the daily imbalance tolerance applicable during an OFO or EFO even. 6. Customers may trade their monthly imbalances with other customers. Customer's cumulative imbalances will be stated on the customer's monthly bill. The customer's bill will serve as notice of current imbalances. Beginning at 7:00 a.m., Pacific Clock Time (PCT), on the 25th calendar day in the month of notification, customers may enter EBB to trade imbalances with other customers. Customers within the tolerance band may trade any quantities so long as the 10% tolerance band is not exceeded. Customers outside the tolerance band may trade quantities up to a maximum of their excess imbalance (quantities outside of tolerance) plus the 10% tolerance band. Utility will notify participants through EBB or other notice once the trade is validated. The trading period will end at 11:59 p.m. PCT on the last calendar day of the same month. During the month of February, the trading period begins at 7:00 a.m. PCT on the 23rd of the month and ends at 11:59 p.m. PCT on the last calendar day of the month.

Imbalance trades may be submitted through EBB or by facsimile using the Imbalance Trading Agreement Form (Form No. 6544) and must be received by the Utility System Operator by the close of the trading period. To submit an imbalance trade by facsimile, both parties must complete and send by facsimile a copy of the Imbalance Trading Agreement Form to the Utility System Operator. The Utility System Operator will then confirm the trade and adjust the participants' imbalance accounts. A processing charge of $13.73 will be charged by the Utility for each imbalance trade submitted by facsimile using the Imbalance Trading Agreement Form. No processing charge will apply to an EBB subscriber for imbalance trades submitted by facsimile at a time the EBB system is unavailable for use by the subscriber. 8. Customers may opt to participate in the EBB’s interactive trading platform in which imbalance trading parties may buy and/or sell imbalance gas. Instructions are provided on the EBB website. 9. Customers may use their storage account(s) to offset their imbalances or to trade with other customers under the conditions set forth in their applicable storage service rate schedule for unbundled storage service, or in Rule No. 32 for Aggregators. A storage customer may trade positive imbalances, i.e., over-deliveries, into its storage account only if its storage inventory capacity is available during the month that the imbalance occurred and at the time the imbalance trade takes place. Similarly, a storage customer may trade negative imbalances, i.e., under deliveries, using its storage account only if there is sufficient gas in storage in the account during the month that the imbalance occurred and at the time the imbalance trade takes place. 10. After the imbalance trading period, the Standby Procurement Charge or Buy-Back Rate will be applied to all imbalance quantities in excess of the tolerance band. 11. When in the judgment of the Utility Gas Control Department, the latest scheduled quantities (confirmed nominations from the Timely Cycle for the Evening Cycle) are in excess of system capacity, Buy-Back service hereunder shall be applied to daily periods as designated by the Utility in accordance with the provisions of Rule No. 30, Section F. Customers shall not be allowed to trade positive imbalances incurred during such daily periods. The Buy-Back Rate shall apply to all positive imbalances in excess of the 10% tolerance band for each such period. The high OFO tolerance will be either 105% or 110%. The default will be 105%, but Utility will have the ability to set the tolerance at 110% if, in Utilities sole discretion, operational circumstances allow. The high OFO tolerance is temporary and will return to 110% upon the expiration of the term in the settlement approved by the Commission in D._______. Specifically, that settlement term will conclude upon the earlier of: (1) any superseding decision or order by the Commission, (2) return of Aliso Canyon to at least 450 MMcfd of injection capacity and 1,395 MMcfd of withdrawal capacity, or (3) November 30, 2016. Standby service shall be provided for the regular monthly balancing period and shall not be restricted to the excess nominations periods. 12.

PUC) ADVICE LETTER NO. 4777 Lee Schavrien DATE FILED Mar 11, 2015 DECISION NO. 13-05-010 Senior Vice President EFFECTIVE Apr 10, 2015 1C0 RESOLUTION NO. 1. Purpose The CFCA is an interest bearing balancing account recorded on SoCalGas' financial statements. The purpose of this account is to balance the difference between the authorized margin, (excluding the transmission revenue requirements and Backbone Transportation Service (BTS) revenue requirement) and other non-gas costs as detailed below, including funding of SoCalGas’ Gas Assistance Fund (GAF) program pursuant to Advice No. 4168, and storage costs associated with the allocation of storage adopted in D.08-12-020 that are not currently reflected in current rates, allocated to the core market with revenues intended to recover these costs. Pursuant to Advice No. 3963, SoCalGas establishes a separate subaccount in the CFCA to track authorized funding by the CPUC and related funds actually used in providing eligible customers with assistance in paying their bills in connection with SoCalGas’ Gas Assistance Fund (GAF) program. In accordance with Advice No. 4177-A, filed pursuant to D.07-08-029, D.10-09-001, and Resolution G-3489, the CFCA will be credited for the core’s allocation of the System Modification Fee (SMF) charged to California Producers to offset the system modification costs which have been incorporated in base rates in connection with SoCalGas’ 2012 General Rate Case.

These revenue requirement adjustments are associated with SoCalGas’ net operating loss carry-forward amounts that should have been used to reduce SoCalGas’ accumulated deferred income tax liability balance in determining SoCalGas’ authorized rate base in connection with SoCalGas’ 2012 General Rate Case. 2. Applicability The CFCA shall apply to all core gas customers. 3. Rates The projected year-end CFCA balance will be applied to core gas transportation rates. 4.

The NFCA shall be divided into two subaccounts: a) authorized base margin and b) non-base margin costs and revenues. In accordance with Advice No. 4772 filed pursuant to D.13-05-010, the CFCA will be debited for the noncore’s allocation of the revenue requirement adjustments to comply with the normalization requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 168(i)(9), as interpreted by the Internal Revenue Service in Private Letter Ruling (PLR) 136851-14.
