GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
6.11 NOMINATION PRIORITIES
As part of the nomination and transfer nomination
process, if there is more than one supply source nominated to be
delivered to a single Delivery Point or buyer, the nomination or
transfer nomination should identify how and which supply sources
should be cut in the event all nominated deliveries are not or
cannot be made. Similarly, the nomination or transfer nomination
should identify which delivery should be cut in the event gas is
not or cannot be received as nominated (i.e., ranking). Ranking
should be included in the list of data elements. Transportation
service providers should use Service Requester (Shipper) provided
rankings when making reductions during the scheduling process when
this does not conflict with tariff-based rules.
6.12 OPERATIONAL BALANCING
KMIP agrees that, if requested by Shipper, it will
negotiate with an entity that operates the facilities
interconnecting with KMIP at a Receipt Point (Balance Operator) in
a good faith effort to reach an agreement to deal with imbalances
at the Receipt Points specified (which would be a form of a
Predetermined Allocation), subject to the following conditions:
(a) Such agreement must set out a mutually agreeable
procedure for dealing, as between KMIP and Balance Operator, with
any difference between confirmed nominations and actual physical
gas flow caused by operational conditions, so that any such
discrepancy does not affect any Shipper;
(b) The Balance Operator must meet the same
creditworthiness standards as Shipper;
(c) KMIP and Balance Operator must not have previously
entered into such an agreement which was terminated because of
Balance Operator's failure to perform. Nothing herein is intended
to restrict KMIP's right to terminate in accordance with its terms
any agreement entered into hereunder, including without limitation
the right to terminate for Balance Operator's failure to perform
consistent with its obligations under the agreement.
