GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(b) The gross heating value of gas delivered hereunder shall be
determined from read-outs of continually operating measurement
instruments. The method shall consist of one or more of the
following:
(1) calorimeter;
(2) gas chromatograph;
(3) any other method mutually agreed upon by the parties.
Measurement of gross heating value with the calorimeters shall comply
with the standards set forth in the American Society for Testing and
Materials' ASTM D 1826-83 or any subsequent revisions. Analysis of
gas with gas chromatographs shall comply with the standards set forth
in ASTM D 1945-81 or any subsequent revisions. Calculation of the
gross heating value from compositional analysis by gas chromatography
shall comply with the standards set forth in ASTM D 3588-81 or any
subsequent revisions. Transporter or its agent shall calibrate and
maintain the gross heating value measurement device at intervals as
agreed upon by Transporter and Shipper. Shipper shall have access
to Transporter's devices and shall be allowed to inspect the devices
and all charts or other records of measurement at any reasonable
time.
(c) Tests shall be made to determine the total sulfur, hydrogen
sulfide, carbon dioxide and oxygen content of the gas, by approved
standard methods in general use in the gas industry, and to determine
the hydrocarbon dew-point and water vapor content of such gas by
methods satisfactory to the parties. Tests shall be made frequently
enough to ensure that the gas is conforming continuously to the
quality requirements.
9.4 Failure to Conform to Specifications. If the gas offered for
delivery to Transporter at the Receipt Point(s) or made available to
or on behalf of Shipper at the Delivery Point(s) by Transporter shall
fail at any time to conform to any of the specifications set forth
in Sections 9.1, 9.2 or 9.3, then the party receiving such gas (the
"receiving party") shall notify the other party (the "tendering
party') of such deficiency and thereupon the receiving party may at
its option refuse to accept such gas pending correction by the
tendering party. Upon the tendering party's failure promptly to
remedy any deficiency the receiving party may accept such gas and may
make changes necessary to bring such gas into conformity with such
specifications, and the tendering party shall reimburse the receiving
party for any reasonable expense incurred by it in effecting such
changes. In no event shall the failure of any gas offered for
delivery to Transporter by Shipper or for Shipper's account to
