RATE SCHEDULE IBS (continued)
D. Transporter has the right to delay or limit IBS Payback. To the
extent Transporter does not confirm an IBS Payback nomination, or
the nomination is limited by MDQ under the IBS Agreement, Shipper
shall be obligated to make a timely IBS Payback nomination in
each subsequent daily nomination period until the IBS Balance for
that day has been eliminated; provided, however, that if
Transporter advises Shipper that no IBS Payback nominations will
be accepted until a specified future date or will be limited in a
specified way over a defined period for scheduling reasons, no
overrun charges under Section 6.5 or Section 7.1(A) shall apply
until Transporter has confirmed and permitted Payback volumes.
The IBS Payback period shall be extended by each day the IBS
Payback nomination is not confirmed by Transporter.
6.4 Each Daily Balance must be zeroed-out through the IBS Payback
nomination process in this Section 6 by the end of three (3) Gas Days
or such extended period allowed pursuant to Section 6.3D above. IBS
Balances for each Gas Day shall otherwise incur additional charges
equal to the Park/Loan Daily Balance Rate or the Mandatory Balancing
Provisions of this Rate Schedule IBS that shall otherwise apply, unless
otherwise agreed to in writing by Transporter.
6.5 The quantity parked or loaned each Gas Day to effectuate balancing
under the linked transportation agreement shall constitute the Daily
Balance. Each Daily Balance shall be accounted for separately for
purposes of applying Park/Loan Balance Rate charges, without netting of
Daily Balances, pursuant to the provisions of this Section 6. If
Shipper fails to nominate and deliver IBS Payback quantities to reduce
a Daily Balance (positive-park or negative-loan balance) in the next
Gas Day and at a level sufficient to rectify the daily IBS Balance
within three (3) Gas Days, then the Park/Loan Balance Rate shall apply,
with no tolerance or exemption, beginning on the fourth (4th) Gas Day
to the remaining Daily Balance quantity parked or loaned and shall
continue to be assessed each Gas Day thereafter and until the Daily
Balance for a Gas Day is nominated, confirmed and delivered so as to
eliminate the Daily Balance. IBS Payback nominations shall be applied
to the oldest Daily Balance ("first in, first out") and IBS Payback
quantities may be designated by Shipper as the first gas through the
meter for allocation under predetermined allocation agreements at
Receipt Points under the linked transportation agreement or the
specified Delivery Point under the IBS Agreement. The Park/Loan Balance
Rate, including charges associated with potential overrun of the IBS
Balance, will be assessed if Payback nominations are not effectuated
