Our portfolio also includes a mixture of structured products designed to take advantage of both upside and downside price opportunities • Utilize Market Area Storage: Jackson Prairie • Arranging for supplemental resources to replace Plymouth LNG this heating season • Considering additional storage opportunities for future years at Ryckman Creek and other regional facilities • Effectively Manage Wholesale Prices - • Through Cost-Effective FOM and Day Gas Purchases • By Participating in USA and Canadian Pipeline Rate Filings and Forums • By Optimizing Pipeline Capacity and Other Core Resources through available release mechanisms (capacity release, asset management agreements)
