2. MEASUREMENTS AND MEASURING EQUIPMENT (Continued)
2.1 Unit of Measurement and Basis of Measurement of Gas: (Continued)
(e) Calibration and Test of Gas Meters: If either Shipper or Paiute
shall at any time have reason to doubt the accuracy of any
gauge, measuring device, or other appliance used in measuring
the gas received or delivered, it shall notify the other in
writing, and within a reasonable time thereafter the measuring
device shall be tested in the presence of both parties.
(f) Correction of Gas Metering Errors: If any measuring device used
to obtain the quantity of gas received or delivered shall have
been found on test to be in error by more than two percent
(2%), the amount of gas which shall have been received or
delivered during a period commencing not more than thirty (30)
days prior to the date of notification mentioned in Section
2.1(e) hereof shall be recalculated and corrected back to a
zero percent (0%) error.
(g) The cutoff for the closing of measurement is five (5) business
days after the business month. In cases where actual data is
missing or late, Paiute will use an estimate. Paiute will treat
any difference between actual data and estimated data as a
prior period adjustment.
(h) Paiute will treat measurement prior period adjustments by
taking it back to the production month. A meter adjustment
becomes a prior period adjustment after the fifth (5th)
business day following the business month. For reporting
measurement prior period adjustments, Paiute will report it
using a restated line item with new total quantity for the day
and the month. Measurement corrections will be processed within
six (6) months of the production month with a (3) month
rebuttal period. This standard shall not apply in the case of
deliberate omission or misrepresentation or mutual mistake of
fact. Parties' other statutory or contractual rights shall not
otherwise be dismissed by this standard.
