GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
18.8 ELECTRONIC FLOW COMPUTERS
It is recognized that electronic or other types of flow
computers have been developed that permit the direct computation of
gas flows without the use of charts. Where the substitution of these
devices is deemed acceptable by Horizon in the exercise of its
reasonable judgment, their use for custody transfer will be permitted.
18.9 NEW MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES
If, at any time, a new method or technique is developed
with respect to gas measurement or the determination of the factors
used in such gas measurement, such new method or technique may be
substituted by Horizon in exercise of its reasonable judgment. Horizon
shall promptly inform all Shippers of any new techniques adopted.
18.10 CALIBRATION AND TEST OF METERS
The accuracy of all measuring equipment shall be verified
by Horizon at reasonable intervals, and if requested, in the presence
of representatives of Shipper, but neither Shipper nor Horizon shall
be required to verify the accuracy of such equipment more frequently
than once in any thirty (30) day period. If either party at any time
desires a special test of any measuring equipment, it will promptly
notify the other, and the parties shall then cooperate to secure a
prompt verification of the accuracy of such equipment.
18.11 CORRECTION OF METERING ERRORS
If, upon any test, any measuring equipment is found to be
inaccurate, such equipment shall be adjusted immediately to measure
accurately. If, upon any test, the measuring equipment in the
aggregate is found to be inaccurate by one percent (1%) or more at a
recording corresponding to the average hourly rate of gas flow for the
period since the last preceding test, any payments based thereon shall
be corrected pursuant to Section 12.5 hereof, at the rate of such
inaccuracy for any period which is known definitely or agreed upon,
but in case the period is not known definitely or agreed upon, such
correction shall be for a period extending over one-half (1/2) of the
time elapsed since the date of the last test. Measurement data
corrections should be processed within six (6) months of the
production month with a three (3) month rebuttal period. This standard
shall not apply in the case of deliberate omission or
misrepresentation or mutual mistake of fact. Parties' other statutory
or contractual rights shall not otherwise be diminished by this
standard.
