Nominations are to be provided to Transporter under the timeline set forth in
Section 7.2 via EDI. All such transmissions for Nomination purposes shall
comply with all format and protocol requirements specified by the applicable
trading partner agreement. Nominations may be sent to Transporter for each
Nomination cycle described in Section 7.2 either in hard copy or facsimile not
later than one hour prior to the applicable Nomination receipt deadline.
Shippers shall have the ability to nominate for several Days, Months, or
Years, provided the Nomination begin and end dates are within the term of
Shipper's contract. There is no need to re-nominate if Intra-day Nomination
modifies existing Nomination.
All Nominations shall be considered original Nominations and must
be replaced to be changed. When a Nomination for a date range is received,
each day within the range is considered an original Nomination. When a
subsequent Nomination is received for one or more days within that range, the
previous Nomination is superseded by the subsequent Nomination only to the
extent of the days specified. The days of the previous Nomination outside the
range of the subsequent Nomination are unaffected. Nominations have a
prospective effect only.
Transporter shall support a seven-days-a-week,
twenty-four-hours-a-day Nomination process. Personnel may be reached by
beeper after normal business hours.
