393.310. 1. This section shall only apply to gas corporations as defined
in section 386.020. This section shall not affect any existing laws and
shall only apply to the program established pursuant to this section.
2. As used in this section, the following terms mean:
(1) "Aggregate", the combination of natural gas supply and
transportation services, including storage, requirements of eligible school
entities served through a Missouri gas corporation's delivery system;
(2) "Commission", the Missouri public service commission; and
(3) "Eligible school entity" shall include any seven-director, urban or
metropolitan school district as defined pursuant to section 160.011, and
shall also include, one year after July 11, 2002, and thereafter, any school
for elementary or secondary education situated in this state, whether a
charter, private, or parochial school or school district.
3. Each Missouri gas corporation shall file with the commission, by
August 1, 2002, a set of experimental tariffs applicable the first year to
public school districts and applicable to all school districts, whether
charter, private, public, or parochial, thereafter.
4. The tariffs required pursuant to subsection 3 of this section shall,
at a minimum:
(1) Provide for the aggregate purchasing of natural gas supplies and
pipeline transportation services on behalf of eligible school entities in
accordance with aggregate purchasing contracts negotiated by and through a
not-for-profit school association;
(2) Provide for the resale of such natural gas supplies, including
related transportation service costs, to the eligible school entities at the
gas corporation's cost of purchasing of such gas supplies and transportation,
plus all applicable distribution costs, plus an aggregation and balancing fee
to be determined by the commission, not to exceed four-tenths of one cent per
therm delivered during the first year; and
(3) Not require telemetry or special metering, except for individual
school meters over one hundred thousand therms annually.
5. The commission may suspend the tariff as required pursuant to
subsection 3 of this section for a period ending no later than November 1,
2002, and shall approve such tariffs upon finding that implementation of the
aggregation program set forth in such tariffs will not have any negative
financial impact on the gas corporation, its other customers or local taxing
authorities, and that the aggregation charge is sufficient to generate
revenue at least equal to all incremental costs caused by the experimental
aggregation program. Except as may be mutually agreed by the gas corporation
and eligible school entities and approved by the commission, such tariffs
shall not require eligible school entities to be responsible for pipeline
capacity charges for longer than is required by the gas corporation's tariff
for large industrial or commercial basic transportation customers.
6. The commission shall treat the gas corporation's pipeline capacity
costs for associated eligible school entities in the same manner as for large
industrial or commercial basic transportation customers, which shall not be
considered a negative financial impact on the gas corporation, its other
customers, or local taxing authorities, and the commission may adopt by order
such other procedures not inconsistent with this section which the commission
determines are reasonable or necessary to administer the experimental program.
7. Tariffs in effect as of August 28, 2005, shall be extended until
