GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
5. PRIORITY OF SERVICE
5.1 ALLOCATION OF CAPACITY
This Section 5.1 governs the allocation of firm
capacity on Canyon's System among entities requesting firm
services. In assigning priority to otherwise valid requests for
any particular firm service, Canyon shall afford priority based on
rate, term, and volume, applying consistent and objective economic
criteria. In applying such criteria where a Negotiated Rate or
Negotiated Rate Formula is involved, the value assigned to a
request which includes a Negotiated Rate or Negotiated Rate
Formula shall be limited by the Recourse Rate as provided in
Section 35 of these General Terms and Conditions. Requests with
the same rate, term, and volume for the same type of firm service
shall be assigned priority on a first come, first served basis.
In the event valid requests for the same type of firm service are
received on the same day and there is insufficient capacity to
serve all such Shippers, Canyon shall allocate the available
capacity on a pro rata basis based on each Shipper's requested
MDQ. Canyon shall not be required to grant otherwise valid
requests at less than the applicable maximum rate, but may do so
on a non-discriminatory basis.
5.2 SCHEDULING OF FIRM SERVICES
(a) While firm services are not ordinarily
interrupted due to lack of capacity, capacity constraints may
exist from time to time or interruption of service may be
necessary for certain other reasons. Canyon may decline to
schedule and/or may curtail firm service for any of the following
reasons:
(1) If Shipper tenders gas which does not
conform to the applicable pressure or quality requirements of
these General Terms and Conditions;
(2) For reasons of Force Majeure;
(3) Due to routine repair and maintenance to be
reasonably determined by Canyon;
