GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
13. NOMINATING AND SCHEDULING TRANSPORTATION SERVICE (Cont'd.)
scheduled. Transporter shall not be required to accept an
intra-day nomination whose effect would be to reschedule
quantities of gas flowing for other Shippers under standard
nominations. Transporter shall schedule an intra-day nomi-
nation to the extent that capacity is available. No intra-day
nomination shall be for a quantity that is less than the
quantity of gas that has been scheduled to flow on such day
prior to the effective time of such intra-day nomination. The
last intra-day nomination received with respect to a day shall
be deemed to be the valid nomination for such day and shall
supersede any previous nomination for such day.
(c) Validation and Confirmation. The standard nominations
timeline should be as follows: 11:30 am central clock time for
nominations leaving the control of the nominating party; 11:45
am for receipt of nominations by Transporter; noon central
clock time for a quick response; 3:30 PM for receipt of
completed confirmations by Transporter from upstream and
downstream connected parties; 4:30 PM for receipt of scheduled
quantities by Shipper and point operator (central clock time
on the day prior to flow). In addition, at the end of each
day Transporter shall make available to Shippers, via EDI,
information containing scheduled intra-day nominations and any
other scheduling changes. The process (excluding timelines)
of quick response, confirming with upstream and downstream
parties and scheduling also applies to intra-day nominations.
Transporter, as receiver of a nomination, initiates confir-
mation with the caveat that the receiver of the confirmation
may relieve Transporter of the obligation to send. The
sending party should adhere to nomination, confirmation, and
scheduling deadlines. It is the party receiving the request
who has the right to waive the deadline. At a receipt or
delivery point, the "lesser of" rule (confirmed or nominated
flow) applies when confirming. If no communication is
received, the lesser of the new nomination or previously
scheduled quantity applies.
