GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
7.13 Penalties that are in excess of Transporter's costs, including any
carrying costs, that are received by Transporter pursuant to the
operation of Sections 7.11 and 7.12 shall be credited annually to
Transporter's firm and interruptible Transportation Shippers on a
pro rata basis in accordance with the quantities Transported for
each Shipper. Transporter shall calculate and credit interest on
penalties received at rates set pursuant to 18 CFR Section
154.501(d). In addition, Transporter will file a report with FERC
on or before August 31 of each year detailing the penalties assessed
for the 12 month period ending the preceding June 30.
7.14 Penalty Provisions. Shipper will only be subject to one penalty for
the same type of infraction involving any quantity of Gas in
conjunction with Transportation Service provided under the General
Terms and Conditions.
7.15 Penalty Waiver. Transporter may, in exercise of its reasonable
discretion, and on a nondiscriminatory basis, waive all or a part of
any penalty which might otherwise apply. Transporter shall maintain
a record of all waivers granted. Such record shall include the
identity of Shipper and the basis for Transporter granting the
waiver and shall be available for public inspection at Transporter's
office during normal business hours.
7.16 Critical Operating Procedures
(a) Strained Operating Condition may be issued using the
notification procedures of Section 5.3(e)(iv)(2) of this Tariff
in situations where in Transporter's judgment general system
flexibility, normally available Day to Day, cannot be afforded
to Shippers to accommodate minor variations in receipt and
Delivery quantities from Nominated levels. Examples of such
operating conditions include (1) situations when the maximum
storage withdrawal capacity is being utilized and allocated
Receipt Quantities are less than Delivery Quantities; (2) when
the maximum storage injection capacity is being utilized and
allocated Receipt Quantities are greater than Delivery
Quantities; and (3) when actual Receipt and Delivery Quantities
on a segment of the transmission system vary from Nominations
such that Transporter's capability to receive and Deliver Gas
for its Shippers is adversely affected. The issuance of a
strained operating condition requests Shippers voluntary
support in correcting their situations and does not cause the
Unauthorized Overrun Rates to increase.
