Emergency Eminence Storage Withdrawal Service
(Continued)
5. WITHDRAWALS FROM STORAGE
5.1 Emergency Eminence Storage Withdrawal Service is limited to an aggregate daily
withdrawal quantity equal to the combined Storage Demand Quantities of all Buyers
under this rate schedule. Should operating conditions permit, the daily withdrawal
capability shall be increased by Seller. Seller shall endeavor to withdraw and
deliver, on any one day, as much of Buyer's nomination for such day as operating
conditions permit, and in no event shall Buyer be allocated less than its Storage
Demand. If, however, the total of all nominations for a day exceeds the total
quantity which Seller can withdraw from storage on such day, the total nominations for
such day shall be allocated pro rata among the nominating Buyers based on Storage
Demand.
5.2 The total aggregate quantity available for withdrawal during any force majeure event
may be adjusted downward to the extent that withdrawals from prior force majeure
events have not been returned. Withdrawal quantities may be adjusted to the extent
that the capacity or deliverability of the Eminence storage field varies with factors
unrelated to the level of inventory, such as force majeure or operating conditions.
5.3 When Buyer withdraws gas under this rate schedule, Buyer shall nominate quantities for
withdrawal according to Seller's nomination and ranking deadlines as set forth in
Section 28.1 of the General Terms and Conditions. Seller, in its sole judgment, may
waive any nomination and ranking deadlines, on a non-discriminatory basis, if Seller
determines operating conditions permit. Seller shall thereupon withdraw for Buyer the
quantity of gas scheduled. Gas for withdrawal hereunder shall be made available to
Buyer at the delivery point set forth in the executed EESWS service agreement.
6. INJECTIONS INTO STORAGE
6.1 Upon the termination of the force majeure event applicable to Buyer or the depletion of
quantities available under this rate schedule, whichever occurs first, Buyer will be
required to schedule injection returns plus fuel at a daily rate such that the
quantities withdrawn will be replaced within 30 days, or such longer period that may be
required as a result of injection limitations. Seller shall have the right to limit
Buyer's daily injection rate to the Storage Injection Quantity specified in Buyer's
service agreement unless operating conditions permit a greater injection quantity. If
Buyer fails to meet the injection return deadline, Buyer shall be charged a penalty on
the unreturned quantities of two times the Zone 4 "Sell" Price, which shall be the
highest weekly Reference Spot Price for Zone 4, as set forth in Section 37.1(a) of the
General Terms and Conditions for the month(s) in which all quantities should have been
replaced. The unreturned quantity multiplied by one times the Zone 4 Sell Price will
be considered the penalty revenue that will be distributed pursuant to Section 54 of
the General Terms and Conditions. The remaining penalty dollars (the unreturned
quantity multiplied by one times the Zone 4 Sell Price), which is representative of
Seller's cost to replenish the gas in the Eminence storage field, will be included in
the Cash Out Refund calculation pursuant to Section 15 of the General Terms and
Conditions.
