3.5 Imbalance Penalties - The following penalties may be charged
by PGPL to the extent applicable to the specific services
provided herein:
(a) Balancing Penalty - A Penalty as stated in paragraph (b)
below, shall be levied by PGPL and paid in dollars or
gas, as applicable, by any Shipper who, upon notification
by PGPL of the existence of an overage in deliveries
and/or redeliveries, fails to correct such imbalance on
a prospective basis within 48 hours of receipt by Shipper
of PGPL's notification. Such penalty shall apply on an
individual service agreement basis. Nothing herein shall
limit PGPL's right to take such actions of whatever
nature as may be required to correct imbalances which
threaten the integrity of its system, including
maintenance of service to other customers. Any cash
balancing provided for herein shall be based on the sum
of the actual volumes which are out of balance; i.e.,
daily receipts of natural gas under a Shipper's
transportation service agreement as compared to the
actual daily deliveries (pipeline receipts minus pipeline
deliveries).
The applicable penalty shall be applied to the quantities
which exceed the limits specified below, on a
prospective basis 48 hours following initial notification
by PGPL, in the following instances:
(i) Shipper delivers or causes to be delivered to PGPL
a quantity which exceeds by more than 5% or
50 MMBtu, whichever is greater, Shipper's Interruptible
Transportation Quantity; or
(ii) Shipper delivers or causes to be delivered to PGPL
a quantity which, after appropriate reductions, exceeds
by more than 5% or 50 MMBtu, whichever is greater,
the quantities taken from PGPL; or
(iii) The Shipper takes quantities from PGPL which
exceed by more than 5% or 50 MMBtu, whichever is
greater, the quantities received by PGPL after
appropriate reductions.
