-----------------
its daily rights for that leg for the month but, unless otherwise
agreed, an equal volume shall be subtracted from the sum of daily
rights for the other leg for that month. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Natural shall continue to evaluate overrun of total IQ
under any Agreement, and assess any corresponding Overrun Charges, on
a daily basis.
(3) Shipper's storage balance shall be divided
into Amarillo and Gulf Coast components, reflecting the sourcing of
the supply. Separate accounting shall be maintained by Natural for
each component on a continuous basis. Shipper's total storage balance
may not exceed its MSV except as otherwise provided in this Tariff.
Volumes in the two components of Shipper's storage balance are
subject to the following limits: volumes from Amarillo Line sources
residing in the Amarillo Storage Point included in such balance may
not at any time exceed fifty percent (50%) of Shipper's MSV and
volumes from Gulf Coast Line sources residing in the Gulf Coast
Storage Point may not at any time exceed sixty percent (60%) of
Shipper's MSV. A Shipper which breaches the limitations in this
subsection (3) on any day shall pay a Sourcing Charge as set out on
the rate sheets of this Tariff for that day multiplied by the excess
volume (in Dth); provided, however, that no Sourcing Charge shall
apply prior to April 1, 1996 (when trading rights are implemented). If
a Shipper's inventory hereunder exceeds its aggregate MSV, no Sourcing
Charge shall apply, but any applicable Overrun Charges under Section
12 of the General Terms and Conditions of this Tariff shall be
assessed. Notwithstanding payment of a Sourcing Charge, volumes in
each component of a Shipper's storage inventory shall remain in that
component until withdrawn or until transferred as set out below. A
Shipper's DSS storage account as of November 1 shall automatically be
adjusted so that, of its total DSS inventory, fifty percent (50%) of
the volume resides in the Amarillo Storage Point and fifty percent
(50%) of the volume resides in the Gulf Coast Storage Point. On any
day, a Shipper can request that a specified volume be transferred from
the Amarillo Storage Point to the Gulf Coast Storage Point, or vice
versa, within the limitations of Shipper's available rights to
maintain storage inventory in the component of its storage balance to
which the volume is being transferred, where such a transfer would
avoid charges hereunder or alleviate an actual or potential breach of
the limitations under this subsection (3). To implement such a
transfer, Shipper must specifically request such a transfer as part of
its timely nomination for that day and Shipper must make available
capacity to effectuate the transfer under an FTS or FTS-G Agreement
with a primary path which allows Natural to make the requested
transfer.
