GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued)
8. SCHEDULING OF SERVICES
8.1 Nominations. If a Customer desires service under Equitrans'
transportation, storage, Appalachian Gathering Service or Lending &
Parking Service Rate Schedules for any Nomination Period as defined
in Section 1.25 of these General Terms and Conditions, the Customer
will submit a timely nomination to Equitrans. All parties should
support a seven-days-a-week, twenty-four-hours-a-day nominations
process. It is recognized that the success of seven days a week,
twenty-four hours a day nominations process is dependent on the
availability of affected parties' scheduling personnel on a similar
basis. Party contacts need not be at their ordinary work sites but
should be available by telephone or beeper. The sending party should
adhere to nomination, confirmation, and scheduling deadlines. It is
the party receiving the request who has the right to waive the
deadline. For submitting of nominations the Customer must adhere to
the following:
a. All nominations should include Customer defined begin dates
and end dates. All nominations excluding intra-day
nominations should have roll-over options. Customers have the
ability to nominate for several days, months, or years,
provided the nomination begin and end dates are within the
term of the Customer's contract.
b. All nominations should be considered original nominations and
should be replaced to be changed. When a nomination for a
date range is received, each day within that range is
considered an original nomination. When a subsequent
nomination is received for one or more days within that range,
the previous nomination is superseded by the subsequent
nomination only to the extent of the days specified. The days
of the previous nomination outside the range of the subsequent
nomination is unaffected. Nominations have a prospective
effect only. No Customer under an interruptible rate schedule
may increase its nomination for service during the Nomination
Period if such increase would require Equitrans to reduce the
quantities of gas which would be transported for other firm
Customers during the Nomination Period.
c. Overrun quantities should be requested as a separate
transaction and identified as such by using the
appropriate nomination transaction type.
