2. MEASUREMENT(Continued)
2.9 Equipment (Continued)
(g) Calibration and Test of Meters. The accuracy of all measuring
equipment shall be verified by Transporter at reasonable intervals,
and if requested, in the presence of representatives of Shipper, but
neither Shipper nor Transporter shall be required to verify the
accuracy of such equipment more frequently than once in any 30-Day
period. If either Party at any time desires a special test of any
measuring equipment, it will promptly notify the other, and the
Parties shall then cooperate to secure a prompt verification of the
accuracy of such equipment.
(h) Correction of Metering Errors. If, upon test, the measuring
equipment is found to be in error by not more than one percent (1%),
previous recordings of such equipment shall be considered accurate
in computing deliveries, but such equipment shall be adjusted at
once to record accurately. If, upon test, the measuring equipment
shall be found to be inaccurate by an amount exceeding one percent
(1%), at a recording corresponding to the average Hourly rate of
flow for the period since the last preceding test, then any previous
recordings of such equipment shall be corrected to zero error for
any period that is known definitely or agreed upon. In case the
period is not known or agreed upon, such correction shall be for a
period equal to the lesser of one-half of the time elapsed since the
date of the last test or sixteen Days.
(i) Failure of Measuring Equipment. In the event any measuring equipment
is out of service or is found registering inaccurately and the error
is not determinable by test or by previous recordings, receipts or
deliveries through such equipment shall be estimated and agreed to
by the Parties upon the first of the following methods which is
feasible:
(A) By correcting the error if the percentage of error is
ascertainable by calibration, special test, or mathematical
calculation.
(B) By using the registration of any check meter or meters, if
installed and accurately registering.
(C) By estimating the quantity of receipt or delivery based on
receipts or deliveries during preceding periods under similar
conditions when the measuring equipment was registering
accurately.
(j) Preservation of Records. Shipper and Transporter shall preserve for
a period of at least 3 years, or for such longer period as may be
required by appropriate authority, all test data and other similar
records.
