(k) Confirmation Balancing. During each Nomination cycle,
Transporter will match the Shipper's Nomination with the related
Confirmations from the upstream and downstream Interconnecting
Parties. Transporter will treat the lesser of the Nomination and
Confirmations at the related Points of Receipt and Points of
Delivery as the Shipper's Scheduled Quantity pursuant to Section
6.2. To the extent that Confirmations are received by
Transporter in time to complete the Confirmation Balancing
process at or prior to the Confirmation deadline, no scheduled
imbalance will be created for the Shipper's Nominated
transaction. A Shipper may elect to exempt its Nominations from
the confirmation balancing process by notifying Transporter prior
to the deadline for the Timely Nomination Cycle for the effective
day of the exemption. A Shipper's confirmation balancing
election will remain in effect until changed by the Shipper.
However, a Shipper's confirmation balancing exemption may be
suspended when imbalance activity adversely affects Transporter's
ability to provide service to others, adversely affects safe
operations of Transporter's system and/or a Strained Operating
Condition or Critical Condition is in effect.
Upon the determination that exemptions from the confirmation
balancing process cannot be supported due to operational reasons,
Transporter shall post a notice on its EBB prior to the Evening
Nomination Cycle nomination deadline to be effective the next Gas
Day. The notice will indicate the circumstances requiring the
suspension, the system impact of the suspension (e.g. the
locations or pipeline segments for which the suspension is
effective) and an estimated duration of the suspension.
Transporter shall post a related notice when the shippers'
elections to be exempted from the confirmation balancing can be
reinstated.
