GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(continued)
3.5 Scheduling Penalty
For service under Rate Schedule FT, Rate Schedule LFT, and Rate Schedule IT, a penalty shall be
levied by Transporter and paid in dollars (U.S.) by any Shipper who deviates from the limits
specified below. Such penalties shall apply on an individual contract basis. Nothing herein
shall limit the Transporter's right to take actions of whatever nature as may be required to
correct deviations which threaten the integrity of its system, including maintenance of service
to other customers.
A daily scheduling penalty, as stated below, shall be levied by Transporter and paid in dollars
(U.S.) by any Shipper who, upon notification by Transporter of the existence of deviations in
scheduled deliveries to be received by the Transporter at each point of receipt on a daily
basis, fails to correct the problem on a prospective basis after a 48 hour grace period. Such
penalty shall be applied daily to the quantities which deviate from the limits specified below,
on a prospective basis, commencing after the 48 hour grace period and initial notification by
Transporter. This penalty shall continue through the Month in which notification was given or
until the deviation is corrected.
The penalty shall be the maximum applicable Rate Schedule IT rate for the zones of the service
to be provided. The penalty shall be billed each month based on daily quantities which deviate
from Daily Scheduled Deliveries by the greater of 10% or 2,000 Dth. The penalty is in addition
to applicable transportation charges.
3.6 Hourly Variation
Receipts and deliveries, except deliveries for Rate Schedule EFT, shall be made at uniform
hourly rates throughout the Gas Day to the extent practicable; Transporter, however, may agree
on a not unduly discriminatory basis to receive or deliver Gas at a non-uniform rate during any
hour. Subject to Section 2(e) of Rate Schedule EFT, Shippers under such Rate Schedule shall be
entitled to maximum hourly deliveries equal to the respective delivery point MHQ.
3.7 Limitation of Obligation
In the event that any gas in excess of the Scheduled Daily Delivery would adversely affect
Transporter's operations and/or its ability to meet its contract commitments to others,
Transporter shall have the right to refuse to accept, without any liability to Shipper or any
other person, all or such part of the excess delivery as Transporter deems necessary, and
Transporter shall notify Shipper accordingly as soon as feasible. To the extent Transporter is
required to accept any such gas due to operational conditions on its system, Transporter shall
be entitled to retain the gas for its own account and to utilize such gas for any lawful
purpose, without payment therefor, subject to the balancing provisions of this FERC Gas Tariff,
