GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
6. BALANCING, ADHERENCE TO SCHEDULING, AND CONTRACT OVERRUNS (Continued)
6.2 Balancing Penalties. (Continued)
(c) Actual quantity received exceeds delivered quantity
A net positive imbalance shall exist if the difference between the
quantity received and the quantity delivered, taking into account the
reduction in quantity for the Measurement Variance Gas Quantity,
yields a positive result. Commencing upon notification by Transporter
of the existence of the imbalance, and to the extent that the
Transporter system is not constrained or its integrity threatened,
Shipper shall have three (3) days to correct the imbalance. If
Shipper submits a balancing nomination pursuant to Section 4.1(1)
within the 3-day period and Transporter is unable to accept the
balancing nomination due to capacity restrictions or if confirmed
imbalance nominations are curtailed due to capacity restrictions, then
the time allowed to correct the imbalance without penalty shall be
extended accordingly.
Remedies: Shippers may schedule with Transporter using the nomination
process to eliminate or reduce positive imbalances. In addition, in
accordance with Section 6.7 of these General Terms and Conditions,
Shippers may net or trade imbalances to eliminate or reduce positive
imbalances.
Penalty: If at the end of the aforementioned three (3) day period the
difference between the actual quantity received and the delivered
quantity is in excess of 10% of the delivered quantity or 400 Dth,
whichever is greater, the Shipper shall be assessed a penalty of
$2/Dth applied to the excess quantity. If the imbalance is not
corrected within forty-five (45) days of Transporter's notice of an
imbalance, Transporter shall be able to retain the remaining imbalance
quantity without compensation to the Shipper and free and clear of any
adverse claim. Quantities retained by Transporter will be sold and the
proceeds from the sale of confiscated gas will be credited to all
shippers in accordance with Section 29.2 of these General Terms and
Conditions.
(d) Scheduled delivery quantity exceeds actual delivered quantity
An imbalance shall exist when the quantity scheduled (nominated and
confirmed) for delivery exceeds the actual delivered quantity.
Penalty: When the difference between the scheduled delivery quantity
and actual delivered quantity is in excess of 10% of the actual
deliveries, or 400 Dth, whichever is greater, the Shipper shall be
assessed the maximum applicable interruptible transportation rate
applied to the excess quantities.
