FT RATE SCHEDULE
Firm Transportation Service
by Pipeline from Customer for transportation hereunder,
less any gas retained by Pipeline in providing such
transportation service. Pipeline shall have no
obligation to take receipt of gas on any Day that Customer
fails to take delivery of equivalent quantities of gas
tendered by Pipeline at the Delivery Point(s), and Pipeline
shall have no obligation to deliver gas to Customer on any
Day that Customer fails to deliver equivalent quantities to
Pipeline at the Receipt Point(s); provided, however, that
this Section shall authorize Pipeline to suspend service
only to the extent that Customer's receipts and deliveries
are not equivalent.
7.2 If, despite Customer's obligation to balance as set forth in
Section 7.1 above, Pipeline determines at the end of any
month that deliveries hereunder by Pipeline were greater or
less than the corresponding receipts of gas by Pipeline for
transportation, less any gas retained, Pipeline will notify
Customer via the EBB no later than the 9th Business Day of
the succeeding month of any excess or deficiency in
receipts. Customer may correct such excess or deficiency in
receipts within twenty (20) Days after Customer receives
such EBB notification of the month-end imbalance from
Pipeline. If an imbalance is not (i) corrected within
twenty (20) Days or, to the extent not cured in-kind, (ii)
traded in accordance with Section 40 of the General Terms
and Conditions, or (iii) resolved through any other
imbalance management options offered by Pipeline and others,
then Pipeline will (i) transfer the imbalance to Customer's
balance under its Rate Schedule MCS service agreement or
(ii) if Customer does not have such service agreement in
effect, create an MCS service agreement, and then transfer
such imbalance, and (in either case) assess the maximum rate
for Balancing Service under Rate Schedule MCS for each Day
the imbalance remains on the system beginning on the date
that Customer is notified of the end-of-month imbalance. To
the extent that MCS Balancing Service is not available or
Customer does not qualify for such service, Pipeline shall
have the right to correct an imbalance by: (i) immediately
suspending deliveries to Customer or, if that does not cure
the imbalance, purchasing gas to make up deficiencies in
receipts and charging Customer for the verifiable cost of
such gas; or (ii) immediately suspending receipts from
Customer or, if that does not cure the imbalance, treating
excess receipts as unauthorized gas under Section 29 of the
General Terms and Conditions. Pipeline shall not impose
fees otherwise applicable under this section that result
from in-kind cures and imbalance trades undertaken by
Customer in good faith reliance on monthly imbalance data
that Pipeline has reported in error.
7.3 Customers electing to cure imbalances through in-kind
receipts or deliveries under Section 7.2 of this Rate
Schedule must nominate and schedule any receipts or
deliveries of gas intended to cure imbalances under the
Service Agreement in accordance with Section 11A of the
General Terms and Conditions of this Tariff. Such scheduled
receipts or deliveries of gas shall be deemed to be the last
gas through the meter for purposes of calculating Customer's
monthly bill and the applicability of the imbalance charges
set forth in Section 7.2, above.
