<br /> obstruction such as plod land between the gas main and the appltcant's building prevents
<br /> the Utility from prudently installing a service pipe, the Utility lily, at its discretion,
<br /> waive the above. In such cases the whiter may be located at or near the appltcant's property
<br /> line, as close as practical to the Utiltty's main at a location agreed upon by the custer.

<br /> applicant shall pay to the Utility the cost of excess length at $~.10 per foot of service
<br /> pipe 2 inches in diameter or smaller.
<br /><-~ b. The cost per foot per service pipe will be based upon the syst~ide average unit
<br /> cost of installing service pipe up to 2 inches in diameter during the preceding
<br /> calendar year and will be revised and become effective in accordance with
<br /> Section H below.
<br /> c. For service pipe larger than 2 inches in diameter, the Utility will charge the
<br /> actual cost per foot, less the cost for a l-inch service for a distance equal to
<br /> the allowed free footage.
