GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
____________________________
(continued)
11.1.6 Capacity within Category D shall be allocated based upon the nominations made by each
Shipper and based upon the date of the Shipper's Service Request Form--for example, a
Service Request Form dated earlier in time shall be allocated nominated capacity before a
Service Request Form dated later in time shall have any capacity allocated to it; provided
that:
a) All Shippers that applied under Transporter's FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume
No. 1, Rate Schedule IT (formerly contained in Original Volume No. 3) for
interruptible Transportation Service during the "Open Season" (which was held from
October 8, 1990 through October 19, 1990) shall be deemed to have the same Service
Request Form date, and quantities nominated pursuant to subsections 11.1.4(e) and
11.1.5(b) above shall be deemed to be within this "Open Season" group; and
b) Should more than one Shipper have the same Service Request Form date (for example, the
"Open Season" group), then the capacity available to those Shippers shall be allocated
pro rata based upon the quantities nominated by those Shippers.
11.2 Bumping Provisions
Transportation Service provided to any Shipper may not be interrupted to provide increased
Transportation Service to another Shipper, except that during the Timely, Evening, and Intra-day
1 nomination cycles as defined in Section 3.2 of the General Terms and Conditions of this FERC
Gas Tariff, a Category A Shipper may nominate quantities up to that Shipper's MDQ and the
scheduling shall interrupt already scheduled Transportation Service of Category B, C and D
Shippers, but shall not interrupt already scheduled Transportation Service of other Category A
Shippers.
Transporter shall provide notification of Intra-day bumps to each affected Shipper through such
Shipper's choice of Electronic Notice Delivery Mechanism(s). Unless Shipper and Transporter have
agreed to exclusive notification via EDI/EDM, Shipper shall provide Transporter with at least
one, but no more than two, Internet e-mail address(es) to be used for Electronic Notice
Delivery. In this instance, unless and until Shipper provides Transporter with at least one
Internet e-mail address, Transporter shall not be obligated to provide Shipper with notification
of Intra-day bumps through Electronic Notice Delivery. Under such circumstances, Transporter
shall provide notice either by telephone or by fax.
When a capacity constraint occurs due to force majeure or other operating condition on the
Transporter's system that reduces the available capacity on the system, Shippers will be
reallocated capacity as determined by the priorities within this Section 11. The Shipper can
continue to maintain its priority for capacity at the constrained point(s) by continuing to
maintain its nomination. As the constrained capacity comes back on the system, Shippers will
be reinstated as determined by the aforementioned priorities.
Any Rate Schedule IT Shipper not paying the maximum applicable rate for the Shippers' service
within each zone and within each priority may be interrupted in favor of Rate Schedule IT
Shippers paying a higher rate up to the maximum rate within that priority, unless the Shipper
paying less than the maximum rate, including any Shipper paying a negotiated rate pursuant to
Subsection 4.5 of Rate Schedule IT, agrees to pay the higher rate so offered within 48 hours of
notification by Transporter of such impending interruption.
For the purpose of this section, any Shipper paying a rate above the maximum rate shall be
deemed to be paying the maximum applicable rate.
