DPO RATE SCHEDULE
Delivery Point Operator Service
5. QUANTITIES
5.1 The quantities of natural gas that may be taken by the DPO on a
no-notice basis at the Citygate Delivery Point shall be limited
to those quantities otherwise available under the Subject Service
Agreements,less any quantities of service that have been released
to others or nominated for delivery to Secondary Delivery Points.
This quantity shall be defined as the "Maximum No-Notice Quantity."
5.2 During any 24-hour period in which the operational flow order
described in Section 9.5.A of Rate Schedule FTNN is in effect, the
maximum quantity of gas that the DPO may take at the Citygate
Delivery Point in any period within a Day (Hourly Entitlement)
shall equal the sum of (1) the hourly entitlements of services
that have been scheduled for delivery at the Citygate Delivery
Point other than services provided under the Subject Service
Agreements, plus (2) the combined hourly entitlements of the
DPO and all participating CSCs which shall be calculated by
adding the MDTQs of the Subject Service Agreements with primary
point entitlements at the Citygate Delivery Point on that Day
and multiplying that sum by the following factors:
1. 120% of 1/24th in any one hour
2. 115.7% of 3/24th in any three consecutive hours;
3. 112.6% of 5/24th in any five consecutive hours;
4. 104.2% of 12/24ths in any twelve consecutive hours.
5.3 To the extent that a DPO exceeds its Hourly Entitlement
on any Day when Pipeline has issued an operational flow
order pursuant to Section 9.5.A. of Rate Schedule FTNN,
then Pipeline shall assess and the DPO shall pay a
penalty per Dt equal to the higher of $25 or three times
the Penalty Index Price applicable to the largest
quantity overrun in any one of the four periods defined
in Section 5.2, above, provided however, that if DPO is
assessed a excess hourly flow penalty under any other
of Pipeline's Rate Schedules that is greater than that
assessed under this Rate Schedule, payment of such
higher penalty shall discharge the DPO's obligation to
pay the penalty under this Section 5.3.
5.4 The Hourly Entitlements established by this Rate Schedule
are designed to provide the DPO and CSC with hourly
flexibility within the established MDTQ of each of
Pipeline's shippers. These Hourly Entitlements shall not
Be interpreted to provide any shipper with a right to take
deliveries of gas in excess of its MDTQ on any Day.
6. CITYGATE DELIVERY POINT
The DPO Agreement shall identify the Citygate Delivery
Point, which shall be the physical location(s) at which
the DPO may arrange for no-notice delivery of natural
gas, subject to adequate corresponding service entitlements
under the Subject Service Agreement(s).
7. DPO PROCEDURES
7.1 The DPO shall maintain and provide to Pipeline a list
of the Citygate Swing Customers (CSCs) that have
qualified to participate in the DPO's retail access
program. Shippers other than CSCs may also deliver gas
to the Citygate Delivery Point; however, the DPO may
not attribute unnominated service swings by such
customers to Pipeline or CSCs hereunder. Pipeline
shall confirm with each identified CSC that it desires
to participate in the DPO program, and shall enter into
a CSC Agreement with each identified CSC, subject to
the requirements of Pipeline's Rate Schedule CSC.
