the Pacific Northwest, which is not required for the transmission of 
Federal energy or the energy described in section 837h of this title, 
shall be made available as a carrier for transmission of other electric 
energy between such areas. The transmission of other electric energy

shall be subject to equitable adjustment at appropriate intervals not 
less frequently than once in every five years as agreed to by the

firm basis shall be affected by any increase, subsequent to the 
execution of such contract, in the requirements for transmission of 
Federal energy, the energy described in section 837h of this title, or 
other electric energy.
