GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
17. MEASUREMENT AND MEASURING EQUIPMENT (Cont'd)
(h) The supercompressibility of the gas shall be determined in
accordance with the recommendations prescribed in A.G.A.
Transmission Measurement Committee Report No. 8, as amended,
titled Compressibility and Supercompressibility for Natural Gas
and Other Hydrocarbon Gases.
Any meter or meters installed by any party shall be installed at or near
each point of receipt or delivery. Such meters shall be of industry
standard type designed to measure the gas at the receipt or delivery
point.
Southern Star and Shippers shall test their respective chart recorders
or electronic gas measurement equipment at mutually agreed upon
intervals; provided, however, that neither shall be required to perform
such test more than once in a thirty-day period. At any such test the
other may have a representative present if it so desires. Shippers
hereunder shall also have the right to inspect Southern Star's meter
settings at the receipt and delivery points in the presence of
representatives of Southern Star, request tests of Southern Star's chart
recorders or electronic gas measurement equipment and be present at such
tests; provided, however, that Southern Star shall not be required to
conduct such tests more than once each month. Shippers hereunder shall
not alter or in any manner disturb, manipulate or tamper with any of
Southern Star's equipment.
At meters where any party other than Southern Star is responsible for
changing meter charts, such charts shall be received by Southern Star no
later than 48 hours following the day they are changed.
When measuring equipment is found to be no more than two percent (2%)
high or low during a gas day, previous readings shall be considered
correct in computing the receipts and deliveries of gas hereunder, and
such equipment shall be adjusted at once to operate correctly. If at
any time a measurement error of greater than two percent (2%) during a
gas day is determined, gas quantities or calculations will be corrected
accordingly; provided, however, that if the measurement error results in
an adjustment to the monthly quantity of 100 Dth or less, no adjustment
will be made. The period of time for which such corrections will be
attributed shall be for any period which is known definitely or agreed
upon. If the period is not known definitely or agreed upon, then such
correction shall be for a period equal to
