(220 ILCS 25/4) (from Ch. 111 2/3, par. 574)
Sec. 4.
The private energy entity shall be required to provide and
to pay the total cost of the interconnection as well as any costs
associated with providing a transmission capacity sufficient to handle
that portion of the natural gas provided by the private energy entity
that is over and above the capacity otherwise required by the public
utility to service its utility customers and meet other authorized
commitments. The public utility shall not be required to construct any
additional gas facility on a system or to acquire any real property by
eminent domain or otherwise for such facilities, in order to perform the
service contemplated by this Act unless the costs of such additional
facilities or acquisitions are to be borne by the private energy entity.
