RATE SCHEDULE AFT-1
FIRM TRANSPORTATION SERVICE
6. POINT(S) OF RECEIPT AND DELIVERY
6.1 (A) Primary Points of Receipt: The Primary Point(s) of Receipt at which
Algonquin shall receive gas for transportation under this rate schedule shall
be specified in an exhibit to the service agreement executed by Algonquin and
Customer. Such exhibit shall specify for each Primary Point of Receipt the
MDRO and receipt pressure obligations. Such exhibit by mutual written
agreement may be superseded by a new exhibit which may add or delete specific
points or make other changes thereto that the parties deem appropriate.
Algonquin shall not accept any proposed Primary Point(s) of Receipt, or
quantity at any Primary Point(s) of Receipt, or change in quantities among
Primary Point(s) of Receipt if (a) the resulting aggregate MDROs at all of
Customer's Primary Point(s) of Receipt would exceed Customer's MDTQ, or (b)
in doing so, in Algonquin's reasonable judgment, Algonquin would impair its
ability to satisfy its existing firm obligations to receive gas pursuant to
other firm service agreements under which such Point(s) of Receipt are
Primary Points of Receipt and to purchase and receive its Company Use Gas at
maximum deliverability levels, as such Company Use Gas arrangements exist
under agreements effective at the date of Customer's request or reasonably
expected by Algonquin to be effective within six months of the request.
(B) A Replacement Customer that acquired capacity pursuant to the capacity
release mechanism set forth in Section 14 of the General Terms and Conditions
of this tariff or a releasing Customer that has released capacity pursuant to
the capacity release mechanism set forth in Section 14 of the GT&C of this
tariff may request, subject to the availability of point and path capacity,
any interconnection between the facilities of Algonquin and the facilities of
other operators for use as a Primary Point of Receipt in a segmented
transaction, provided, however, that Algonquin shall not accept any proposed
Primary Point of Receipt to the extent that (a) the resulting aggregate
contractual entitlements under the related releasing and replacement
contracts along any segment would exceed the MDTQ of the original contract,
or (b) the quantities transported along any segment under the resulting
aggregate related releasing and replacement contracts would exceed the MDTQ
of the original contract. In the event that Replacement Customer selects a
new Primary Point of Receipt that is located within the acquired contract
path, the portion of the path no longer covered by that contract is deemed to
be unsubscribed capacity that may be sold by Algonquin for the term of the
capacity release agreement. Upon termination of the capacity release
agreement, all capacity covered by the original release, including the
original Primary Points of Receipt, shall revert to the Releasing Customer,
and any Primary Points of Receipt granted during the term of the capacity
release agreement shall revert to Algonquin as unsubscribed capacity.
6.2 Secondary Points of Receipt: Notwithstanding the foregoing, all interconnections
between the facilities of Algonquin and the facilities of other operators shall be
available for use by Customer as Secondary Points of Receipt, with the exception
of interconnections with the facilities of other operators accessible only through
the utilization of capacity on the Brayton Point Lateral, the Manchester Street
Lateral, the Canal Lateral, the Cape Cod Lateral, the Northeast Gateway Lateral,
the J-2 Facility, or the Kleen Energy Lateral, as such lateral facilities are
defined in Rate Schedule AFT-CL; provided, however, that the interconnection
between the Brayton Point Lateral and Algonquin's mainline, the interconnection
between the Manchester Street Lateral and Algonquin's mainline, the
interconnection between the Canal Lateral and Algonquin's mainline, the
interconnection between the Northeast Gateway Lateral and the HubLine offshore
system in Massachusetts Bay, Massachusetts, the interconnection between the J-2
Facility and Algonquin's mainline, and the interconnection between the Middletown
Lateral and the Kleen Energy Lateral are available as Secondary Points of Receipt
under this Rate Schedule AFT-1. Such use of Secondary Points of Receipt is
subject to and pursuant to Section 48.2 of the General Terms and Conditions of
this FERC Gas Tariff.
