6. Authorized Hourly Overrun
Customer may request that Texas Gas allow hourly overruns in excess of the variable
hourly flow permitted pursuant to Section 14 of this rate schedule. To the extent
Texas Gas is operationally able to provide such hourly overrun without adversely
impacting other firm services on its system, Texas Gas may agree to and authorize
such hourly overruns by setting flow control at a quantity greater than otherwise
permissible under Section 14. For any such volumes delivered during any hour in
excess of that which Texas Gas is obligated to deliver under Section 14, Customer
agrees to and shall pay an hourly overrun charge in an amount per MMBtu as set forth
in the currently effective Sheet Nos. 29A, 29B, and 35A of this tariff. For purposes
of billing such hourly overrun, an "hour" shall mean a period of sixty consecutive
minutes beginning at the top of the hour (e.g., 9:00) or such other period of sixty
consecutive minutes mutually agreeable to Customer and Texas Gas.
7. Daily and Hourly Overrun
7.1 Authorized Daily Overruns, Allowable Variation, and Unauthorized Contract
Demand Overrun Quantity
(a) Authorized Daily Overrun
Where Customer has obtained Texas Gas' prior consent to transport
quantities on any day in excess of its Daily Contract Demand, such excess
quantities shall be considered authorized overruns. In such
circumstances, Customer shall pay the WNS overrun rate for such authorized
overruns and no penalty shall be assessed.
(b) Allowable Variation
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Customer takes between
100% of Contract Demand and 102% of Contract Demand shall be considered an
allowable variation in the delivery of the Contract Demand and shall not
require Texas Gas' prior consent. In such circumstances, the Customer
shall pay the WNS Overrun Rate for such takes and no penalty shall be
assessed. Customer may rely on daily operational information provided by
Texas Gas to determine if its takes have exceeded its daily Contract
Demand and, if so, whether such excess takes are within 102% of Contract
Demand and shall be considered allowable variation. Texas Gas shall use
the lesser of operational information or actual data to determine whether
Customer's excess takes are allowable variation or unauthorized overrun
quantity.
(c) Unauthorized Contract Demand Overrun Quantity
Customer takes in excess of 102 percent of the Contract Demand on any day,
without Texas Gas' prior consent, shall constitute Unauthorized Contract
Demand Overrun Quantity.
