4. SCHEDULING AND CAPACITY ALLOCATION
This Section 4 applies to the operation of El Paso's system and
sets forth the procedures for scheduling of receipts and deliveries
and allocation of pipeline system capacity or any portion thereof
among Shippers receiving transportation service from El Paso under
executed Transportation Service Agreements pursuant to this Tariff
and transportation arrangements included in El Paso's FERC Gas
Tariff, Volume No. 2.
4.1 Scheduling of Receipts and Deliveries
(a) For scheduling purposes, Day 1 shall be utilized only
for scheduling firm requests using primary receipt
points and primary delivery points and Day 2 shall be
utilized, where additional capacity exists, first for
scheduling any additional firm requests using primary
receipt points and primary delivery points, secondly for
scheduling firm requests using either alternate receipt
points or alternate delivery points and third for
scheduling any interruptible requests. The following
procedure shall be utilized to schedule transportation
on El Paso's system:
Day 1 - On Day 1, Shippers shall verify their requests
for firm transportation from primary receipt points to
primary delivery points and cause the Operators to make
confirmations of supply. El Paso shall utilize
confirmed volumes, not to exceed requests, to determine
capacity requirements; and, where necessary, the
capacity allocation procedure set forth in Section 4.2
hereof shall be followed. However, when the
confirmation from the last well causes the total
confirmation to exceed the request, El Paso shall alter
the confirmation on the last well as required for the
total confirmation to equal requested volumes in
accordance with the prioritized list of wells, if any,
provided by each Shipper. El Paso shall then
communicate electronically or via facsimile to the
Shippers and Operators the scheduled quantities and any
additional capacity availability. Such notification
normally shall be completed prior to the beginning of
business on Day 2.
