General Terms and Conditions
34.8 Failure to Comply with OFO. If Shipper (or Shipper’s Gas seller, supplier, Agent,
or the producer and/or operator as the circumstances may require) fails to comply
with the terms of an OFO, for any reason other than force majeure on an upstream
pipeline, such Shipper shall be: (a) liable for any damages including, but not
limited to direct, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages incurred by
Transporter or any other affected party as a result of such failure; and (b)
subject to a penalty of twenty-five dollars ($25.00) for each Dekatherm of Gas
associated with the quantity of Gas that does not comply with such OFO.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 34.8, if Shipper is
required to make a nomination pursuant to an OFO, unless critical circumstances
dictate otherwise, no damages and/or penalties will be assessed unless Shipper is
given the opportunity to correct the circumstances giving rise to the OFO.
34.9 Reimbursement. If Transporter receives Gas pursuant to an OFO issued under Section
34.4 of the General Terms and Conditions of this Tariff, then Transporter shall pay
the full commodity rate applicable to the primary Gas purchaser, whether higher or
lower than Transporter’s Cashout price. If Transporter receives Gas pursuant to an
OFO issued under Sections 34.5 and 34.6 of the General Terms and Conditions of this
Tariff, Transporter shall pay the recipient of the OFO for such quantity of Gas at
the applicable contract price.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any party supplying Gas to Transporter under
Sections 34.4, 34.5, and 34.6 of the General Terms and Conditions of this Tariff
shall have the right to receive such imbalance in kind, delivered to such recipient
by no later than the Month subsequent to the Month in which the OFO was issued.
34.10 Transporter Cost Recovery for OFO. Transporter shall direct bill pipeline
transmission charges incurred as a result of an OFO to all firm Shippers on a
system-wide basis.
34.11 Transporter Liability for OFOs. Transporter shall not be liable to any person for
any costs, damages or other liability associated with the issuance of, or the
failure to issue, any OFOs, other than such costs to be paid by Transporter
according to Section 34.9 of the General Terms and Conditions of this Tariff;
provided, however, Transporter shall be liable for acts of negligence or undue
discrimination, such standards to be judged in light of the emergency conditions
under which OFOs are issued.
34.12 Transporter’s Scheduling Authority. Transporter shall have the right to act as a
scheduling agent for a Shipper’s account if (a) the Shipper refuses to schedule Gas
receipts as specified by an OFO issued pursuant to Section 34.4(a) of the General
Terms and Conditions of this Tariff; or (b) if Transporter requires additional
quantities in less than the twenty-four (24) hour notice period normally required
for an OFO, and the Shipper has refused a verbal request to schedule the required
quantity of Gas.
