12. SCHEDULING PRIORITIES AND CURTAILMENT POLICY (Continued)
capacity Nominations cannot be accommodated, available capacity
will be allocated based on rate, highest to lowest. For services
at the same rates, any necessary allocations of available capacity
will be pro rata based on otherwise acceptable and confirmable
Nominations. To the extent there is more storage capacity than
there is injection and/or withdrawal capacity, Transporter will
separately and subsequently allocate capacity for in-ground
transfer requests using the methodologies herein.
After scheduling interruptible storage capacity, Nominations for
injections/withdrawals for interruptible service under Rate
Schedules DEX-1 (Deferred Exchange Quantities that exceed the
Daily Delivery Quantity) and PAL will be scheduled. If all such
injection and/or withdrawal Nominations cannot be accommodated,
available capacity will be allocated pro rata based on otherwise
acceptable and confirmable Nominations.
For services with Negotiated Rates, the rates used for scheduling
priorities are delineated in Section 12.5.
12.4 Scheduling Priorities for Plymouth LNG Facilities
If Transporter determines that its operationally available liquefaction
and/or vaporization capacities at the Plymouth LNG storage facility are
insufficient to accommodate all otherwise acceptable new Nominations for
services under Rate Schedules LS-1, LS-2F and LS-2I in any Nomination
cycle, Transporter will schedule its operationally available capacity
for Nominations that have not already been scheduled for a given Gas Day
in accordance with the following priorities of service:
(a) First, Nominations for firm service under Rate Schedules LS-
1 and LS-2F will be scheduled. If all such Nominations cannot be
accommodated, available liquefaction capacity will be allocated
pro rata based on Shipper's Storage Capacities and available
vaporization capacity will be allocated based on Shipper's
Contract Demand.
