GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Cont'd)
8. METER ALLOCATIONS
This Section specifies the procedures for allocating any differences
between the aggregate of all Customers' Scheduled Daily Quantities and actual
measured quantities (Difference(s)). Unless otherwise agreed to between
Seller and Confirming Party, physically measured quantities shall be
allocated on scheduled daily quantities and shall be made using dekatherm
units.
8.1 Predetermined Allocation Method (PDA)
(a) If an OBA is not in effect at a receipt or delivery point, and all
Customers cannot agree upon an allocation methodology, "pro rata based upon
confirmed nominations" shall be used as the default PDA method.
(b) Seller may negotiate and enter into OBAs with interstate
pipelines, intrastate pipelines and other entities. No Difference balanced
in-kind shall be allocated to any Customer at the receipt or delivery points
covered by the OBA. If an interstate pipeline charges Seller for Differences
in the OBA, however characterized, Seller shall charge such interstate
pipeline an equivalent and offsetting charge. If Seller is unable to charge
or collect such equivalent and offsetting charges for such Differences,
Seller, on an as-billed basis, shall allocate and bill such charges to
Customers responsible for the imbalance at the point of interconnection at
which the Difference giving rise to the charges occurred.
(c) Where an OBA exists between Interconnecting Parties, a PDA is not
necessary.
(d) Changes to a PDA may be made prospectively during the month. Only
one PDA may be submitted per allocation period. Seller may in its reasonable
discretion make retroactive reallocations of transactions to correct for
errors. Otherwise, no retroactive reallocations of any transactions shall be
permitted without the approval of Seller and the agreement of those Customers
with Service Agreements affected by such retroactive reallocations, provided
that the agreement by such affected Customers shall not be unreasonably
withheld.
(e) PDAs shall remain in effect until a replacement PDA is received
from the Interconnecting Operator or upstream title holder; provided,
however, that PDAs shall be updated at the beginning of each month. A new
allocation detail may be needed when a nomination changes.
(f) If the PDA is provided using EDI, Seller shall respond with an EDI
confirmation indicating receipt of the PDA within 15 minutes, and whether
there are any errors associated with the PDA.
