Load Management Service - Receipt Points
(c) Access to Information - Upon request, Transporter will make available within one
business day following the production day the best information it has concerning
the total physical deliveries at applicable receipt points. Transporter will also
make available by electronic means if available the best information it has
concerning the scheduled and allocated receipts at all of Balancing Party's
receipt points by the end of the third business day after each day. Balancing
Parties will be entitled to rely on the Electronic Data for purposes of correcting
imbalances during the month. Balancing Parties will not be entitled to rely on
the data provided by Transporter from other receipt points for purposes of
correcting imbalances during the month. Imbalances will be cashed-out on the
basis of actual receipts and Scheduled Quantities. The charges associated with
such imbalances will be based upon the lesser of (1) the monthly imbalance
reported by Transporter for the last day of the month based upon the Electronic
Data or (2) the monthly imbalance based upon actual receipts and deliveries at
such locations; provided however, if the monthly imbalance reported by Transporter
for the 20th day of the calendar month based upon Electronic Data is subsequently
adjusted during the remainder of the month and (1) such adjustments materially
increase the level of the imbalance and (2) Balancing Party did not have adequate
time to correct the imbalance by adjusting nominations or receipts, then the
charge associated with such imbalances will be based upon the lesser of (a) the
imbalance reported on the 20th day of the calendar month plus the imbalance
reported for each subsequent day in the calendar month or (b) the monthly
imbalance based upon actual receipt at such points. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary, if the Electronic Data at any point is inaccurate, through no fault
of Transporter, but rather as the result of the action or inaction of third
parties, then the charge associated with monthly imbalances occurring at such
points will be based upon actual receipts.
(d) Limitation on Charges - Any imbalances caused by an event as set forth in Article
X of the General Terms and Conditions, Transporter's actions (including providing
the Balancing Parties inaccurate balancing information), or by Balancing Party's
compliance with a Balancing Alert or an Action Alert issued pursuant to Article
VIII of the General Terms and Conditions, will not be included in the calculation
of the total monthly imbalance for purposes of determining the appropriate cash-
out level and will be cashed out at the 0-5% tolerance level, as set forth in 6(b)
above.
