General Terms and Conditions
(Continued)
b. Notice and Certification. In order to qualify for a
reduction in its Contract Quantities under this Section
35.3, Shipper shall give Transporter ninety (90) days prior
written notice of the anticipated effective date of such
reduction. The notice shall state the Contract Quantity
reduction sought, the date of an anticipated final order
requiring unbundling, and the anticipated effective date of
such unbundling order. At the time of such notice,
Shipper must certify and provide supporting data that:
(i) The reduction requested is equal to the level of
stranded capacity on Transporter resulting from (1)
Shipper unbundling its distribution/transportation
functions from its merchant functions and (2) a net
decrease in Shipper's system sales requirements.
(ii) Shipper has used reasonable efforts to seek State
Commission approval of a mechanism that allows
Shipper the opportunity to recover the costs incurred
by Shipper under Shipper's Service Agreements and
that such efforts were unsuccessful prior to
exercising its Reduction Option under this Section
35.3.
c. Level of Reduction. Shipper may reduce its aggregate
Contract Quantities under all its Service Agreements by an
amount that qualifies under the above-specifications;
provided, however, that (1) if a Shipper customer(s) who,
as a result of unbundling, is no longer a Shipper
customer(s) and such Shipper customer(s) was also served by
other natural gas pipelines in addition to Transporter,
Shipper may only reduce its Contract Quantities on
Transporter by an amount that is pro rata on the basis of
the respective levels of firm Transportation Service used
to serve such customer(s) that Shipper holds on Transporter
and such other natural gas pipelines; and (2) unless
otherwise agreed, if more than one Service Agreement on
Transporter is used to serve the system sales requirements
no longer served by Shipper as a result of unbundling,
Shipper shall reduce its Contract Quantities on Transporter
pro rata based on the MDQ of each Service Agreement,
subject to the requirements of subsection (d) below.
d. Storage and Related Transportation. If Shipper has storage
and related transportation contract(s) that contain
contract reduction options under this Section 35.3,
Contract Quantities under the storage and related firm
transportation services shall be proportionally reduced so
that storage service quantities, including storage capacity
and deliverability quantities, and related transportation
service quantities remain proportionately the same.
e. Effective Date. Such reduction shall take effect on the
later of (i) the effective date of unbundling or the date
of a final order requiring unbundling; and (ii) the first
calendar day of the month following the 90th day after
Shipper's notice of the anticipated effective date of the
reduction.
