GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR SERVICES - continued
(b) In issuing Directional Notices to correct problems
with either too much Gas or insufficient Gas being
received vis-à-vis deliveries, Transporter will
generally follow the following sequence, to the extent
there is sufficient time:
(i) Transporter will require all Shippers out of
Balance to the detriment of the system to
Balance their Agreements.
(ii) Transporter will seek voluntary action from
Shippers, subject to the Shipper and Transporter
negotiating adequate compensation.
(iii) Transporter will interrupt Interruptible
services then being provided if that will
restore system flexibility prior to issuance of
additional Directional Notices or Curtailment of
firm services. Further, this step may also be
taken when Shippers are failing to comply with
previously issued Directional Notices or when
Transporter cannot identify which Shippers are
creating the problem.
(c) In the event receipts in segments of Transporter's
system exceed scheduled receipts so that high system
pressures back off scheduled receipt quantities,
Transporter may issue a Directional Notice to all
Shippers in the affected segment of the system stating
that a high pressure condition exists. All such
Shippers will be required to check their deliveries
into receipt points on the affected portion of the
system.
Those Shippers who are delivering more than their
scheduled volumes will have four (4) hours to make
needed adjustments, or enter the penalty situation.
A Directional Notice issued pursuant to this Section
29.5c will be canceled by Transporter when the high
pressure condition described above has been corrected
and the Imbalances created by the high pressure
condition have been reasonably resolved.
