GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

present. The other party at its sole expense, and subject to the
work requirements of the measuring party, may request interim
calibration or testing. Following any test, any measuring equipment
found to be inaccurate to any degree shall be adjusted immediately
to measure accurately.
24.8 ACCESS TO METERS, CHARTS AND RECORDS
The other party shall have access at all reasonable
times to the measuring equipment and all other instruments used by
the measuring party in determining the measurement and quality of
the gas delivered under the Agreement, but the reading, calibrating,
and adjusting thereof shall be done only by employees, agents or
representatives of the measuring party. The charts and records shall
be kept on file by the measuring party, for mutual use of the
parties hereto, for a minimum period of the greater of: (1) the
period during which billings are subject to correction under these
General Terms and Conditions; or (2) such retention period as is
required by applicable governmental regulation. The measuring party
shall, upon request, submit to the other party records and charts
from such equipment, subject to return by that party within thirty
(30) days after receipt thereof. If Natural is not the measuring
party, Shipper shall provide, or arrange for Natural to have, access
to such data.
24.9 CORRECTION OF ERRORS
If, in the aggregate, measurement errors for a meter are
found to be inaccurate by more than the greater of two percent (2%)
or 500 Dth per day, registration thereof and any payments based upon
such registration shall be corrected at the rate of such inaccuracy
for any period of inaccuracy which is definitely known or agreed
upon, but not to exceed the twelve (12) months prior to the current
gas month, but in case the period of inaccuracy is not definitely
known or agreed upon, then for a period extending back one-half
(1/2) of the time elapsed since the last day of calibration, but not
to exceed forty-five (45) days. Except where there is a deliberate
omission or misrepresentation or mutual mistake of fact, measurement
data corrections will be processed within six (6) months of the
production month with a three (3) month rebuttal period (recognizing
that the parties' other statutory or contractual rights shall not
otherwise be diminished by this sentence).
