RATE SCHEDULE AIS-1
AUTHORIZED IMBALANCE SERVICE
1. AVAILABILITY
This rate schedule is available to any party (hereinafter called
"Shipper") qualifying for service pursuant to the Commission's
regulations contained in 18 CFR Part 284, and who has executed an
Authorized Imbalance Service Agreement with GTN in the form
contained in this FERC Gas Tariff, Third Revised Volume No. 1-A.
2. APPLICABILITY AND CHARACTER OF SERVICE
2.1 This rate schedule shall apply to Authorized Imbalance
Service performed by GTN. This service is interruptible
in nature.
2.2 GTN will authorize AIS-1 service for any Shipper only if,
within GTN's best operating judgement and discretion,
such service is not otherwise expected to prevent GTN
from meeting all of its firm and interruptible service
obligations, including GTN's system needs. In the event
that service has already commenced and GTN learns that
the continued furnishing of service may prevent GTN from
meeting all of its firm and interruptible service obligations
then GTN may, at its sole discretion and upon giving
appropriate notice to Shipper(s), interrupt the continuation of
any or all of the services hereunder.
2.3 GTN shall establish and maintain an Authorized Imbalance
Account for Shipper utilizing this service.
2.4 Service hereunder shall consist of the advancement (loan) to
Shipper upon nomination and subsequent confirmation of such
daily quantities of gas, up to Shipper's Maximum Quantity
(MQ) as specified in the executed Authorized Imbalance
Service Agreement between GTN and Shipper. Quantities
of gas advanced to Shipper shall be debited to Shipper's
Authorized Imbalance Account. Shipper and GTN, at the
time such advances are confirmed, will agree to a redelivery
(return of loaned gas) schedule setting out the daily
quantities of gas Shipper will deliver to GTN and the
point at which gas will be delivered to GTN to reduce
Shipper's Authorized Imbalance to zero.
