18.4 Overrun Charges and Penalties
Buyer shall pay Seller for all such unauthorized daily overrun quantities taken on
such day, an overrun charge equal to Seller's Rate Schedule IT rate per dt calculated
from Zone 3 to the zone in which Buyer receives such quantities and such quantities
shall be treated as deliveries under Seller's applicable rate schedule(s) and as an
imbalance thereunder. If Buyer takes on any day unauthorized overrun quantities in
excess of the allowable daily dispatch variations set forth in Section 18.2 above,
Buyer shall pay in lieu of such IT charge a penalty of $2.50 per dt up to 50 dt, in
excess of that allowable variation for the particular day, and for any quantity of
additional unauthorized daily overrun taken on such day, a penalty equal to the higher
of (i) $50 per dt or (ii) three times the highest weekly Reference Spot Price for the
current month (as set forth in Section 37.1(a) of the General Terms and Conditions)
applicable to the zone(s) in which the unauthorized daily overrun occurs.
18.5 Unauthorized Overruns During Periods of Curtailment
In addition to the provisions for unauthorized daily overruns and penalties therefor
under Section 18.3 and 18.4 hereof, any quantity taken by Buyer in excess of its
Entitlement under Section 13 by an amount of 100 dt or two-tenths (0.2) percent of
such Entitlement, whichever is greater, shall constitute an unauthorized overrun, for
which Buyer shall pay Seller a penalty of $10 per dt for any such unauthorized
overrun.
18.6 Disposition of Penalties
All overrun penalties collected by Seller during the annual period ending July 31,
less an amount equal to Seller's Rate Schedule IT rate per dt multiplied by the total
quantity of overruns, which represents Seller's cost to provide the interruptible
transportation service, shall be the penalty revenue distributed pursuant to Section
54 of the General Terms and Conditions.
18.7 Reservation
The payment of a penalty for an unauthorized overrun quantity shall under no
circumstances be considered as giving any Buyer the right to take such unauthorized
overrun quantity nor shall such payment be considered as a substitute for any other
remedy available to Seller or any other Buyer against the offending Buyer for failure
to respect its obligation to stay within its entitlements.
