Delivery Point. A Shipper may nominate service hereunder pursuant to
daily balancing Access Requests under Section 6 of this Rate Schedule
IBS. This service will be provided based on line pack and/or
operational Gas capability and on offsetting Access Requests under
Section 6 of this Rate Schedule IBS. It is understood that
Transporter is not providing a supply or storage service under this
Rate Schedule IBS.

between nominated and actual gas flows to a specified Delivery Point
under the FTS or ITS Agreement to which the IBS Agreement is linked

excess of the MDQ of the IBS Agreement; or
