GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
12. LATERAL PIPELINES POLICY
Paiute will not build or contribute to the cost of building any lateral
pipelines to transportation shippers. Nothing in this policy statement
shall require Paiute to file an application for a certificate of public
convenience and necessity under Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act
("Act"), and nothing in this policy statement shall prevent Paiute from
contesting an application for service filed pursuant to Section 7(a) of
the Act. Paiute reserves the right to seek a waiver of the policy set
forth herein, for good cause shown, during any proceeding before the
Commission instituted under Section 7 of the Act.
13. SEGMENTATION AND BACKHAUL TRANSPORTATION
13.1 To the extent operationally feasible, a firm Shipper may segment
its capacity into separate parts for its own use or for the
purpose of releasing a portion of its capacity to another Shipper.
Subject to the limitations set forth below, such segmentation may
be on a primary firm basis (using primary firm receipt and delivery
points) or secondary firm basis (using secondary firm receipt
and/or delivery points). Any segment must extend from a Receipt
Point on Paiute's system to a Delivery Point, except that for
purposes of segmentation, the LNG Plant and Wadsworth Junction
Receipt Points may also be designated as Delivery Points. Paiute
will respond to a Shipper's segmentation request within two busi-
ness days following the request. If the segmentation request is
approved, Paiute will issue new service agreements for each of the
segments within one hour of notification to the Shipper that the
request is approved.
13.2 Segmentation Without Capacity Release:
(a) To the extent operationally feasible, a Shipper from time to
time may segment its capacity into separate parts for its own
use and may nominate up to its applicable Reserved Capacity
(i.e., Daily Reserved Capacity or Summer Daily Reserved
Capacity) in any segment, provided, however, that if Shipper's
Service Agreement contains a limitation on the capacity that
Shipper is entitled to use on a particular lateral (LCL),
Shipper may nominate, on a primary firm basis, only up to the
applicable LCL for any segment that includes a portion of such
lateral. Shipper may nominate transportation quantities in
excess of its LCL, up to its applicable Reserved Capacity,
on a secondary firm basis. If primary firm capacity is avail-
able, Shipper may amend its Service Agreement to increase
any applicable LCL on a primary basis up to its applicable
Reserved Capacity by reducing its primary firm rights on a
different lateral to an equivalent extent.
