10. Imbalance Management
10.1 Imbalance Netting: Netting of imbalances is defined as the
combination of positive and negative contract imbalances for a
Shipper. For purposes of resolving an imbalance on a Shipper's
contracts, Transporter shall net Shipper's firm and interruptible
imbalances, on a non-discriminatory basis, between contracts with
such Shipper.
10.2 Imbalance Trading: Trading is the offsetting of Shipper imbalances
between contracts belonging to different Shippers. Trading will
always have the effect of reducing Shipper's contract imbalances.
To assist Shipper in correcting imbalances, Mojave will permit
Shippers and their agents to trade imbalances with other Shippers
in accordance with this section. If Shipper desires to trade
imbalances, Shipper must consent to Transporter posting Shipper's
imbalance information on Transporter's EBB. During the first ten
days of each month, Transporter will make such imbalance
information from the previous month available on its EBB to all
Shippers. Unless otherwise mutually agreed to by Transporter and
Shipper, Shipper shall have until the close of business on the
third business day prior to the end of the month to trade
imbalances with other Shippers to reduce or eliminate any
imbalances that have occurred during the previous month.
(a) Once Shippers have agreed to trade imbalances, each Shipper
must notify Transporter by submitting to Transporter by
telecopy, or by other means approved by Transporter, a gas
imbalance trading notice indicating the agreement to trade
imbalances and the amount of imbalances to be traded. This
notice to Transporter will be deemed to be the Shipper's
direction to Transporter to make the imbalance trade on the
Shipper's account. If the Shippers' notices coincide,
Transporter will adjust Shippers' accounts to reflect the
imbalance trade.
(b) Shippers are responsible for making arrangements deemed
necessary to finalize and document the imbalance trade.
Transporter shall not be liable for any losses incurred by a
Shipper if a Shipper is unable to complete an imbalance trade
once Shipper has notified Transporter of its desire to make an
imbalance trade.
(c) Upon request by a Shipper, Transporter will actively market
imbalances for the fee specified in the Statement of Rates, as
negotiated between Transporter and Shipper.
