RATE SCHEDULE ITS
-----------------
Schedule ITS to the extent such service would qualify under the
applicable statutes, regulations, Commission orders and the blanket
certificate authorizing service by Natural under this Rate Schedule.
For service under Subpart B of Part 284 of the Commission's
Regulations, Shipper shall provide to Natural appropriate
certification, including sufficient information in order for Natural
to verify that the service qualifies under Subpart B of Part 284 of
the Regulations. Where required by the Commission's Regulations,
Shipper shall (prior to tendering gas under an ITS Agreement) cause
the intrastate pipeline or local distribution company on whose
behalf the service will be provided to submit the necessary
certification.
(d) Service hereunder is provided on an interruptible
basis. Curtailment and priorities of service for the purposes of
scheduling and curtailment are governed by the General Terms and
Conditions of this Tariff.
3. VALID REQUESTS
3.1 A request for service under this Rate Schedule ITS shall
be valid as of the date received if it complies with this Section
and contains adequate information on all of the items specified in
Section 3.2, subject to any necessary verification of such
information and to the following:
(a) a request shall not be valid and Natural shall not
be required to grant any such request: (i) which, except as provided
for in Section 3.1(b) hereof, would require the construction,
modification, expansion, or acquisition of any facilities; provided,
however, that Natural may agree in its reasonable discretion to
construct, modify, expand, or acquire facilities to enable it to
perform such services; (ii) unless and until Shipper has provided
Natural with the information required in Section 3.2 hereof; (iii)
if Natural determines, based on the credit analysis referenced in
Section 3.2(d), that Shipper does not possess sufficient financial
stability to make it reasonably likely the service provided
hereunder will be paid for on a timely basis; (iv) if the service
requested would not comply with this Rate Schedule ITS; or (v) if
the service requested is at less than the applicable maximum rate;
provided, however, that Natural may agree to provide service
hereunder at a discount consistent with this Rate Schedule ITS.
Nothing herein is intended to govern the scheduling and curtailment
of service once a request for service has been granted pursuant to
this Section and while an ITS Agreement is in effect. Such matters
are governed by the General Terms and Conditions of this Tariff.
