GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
2. QUALITY continued
2.4 Gas Processing continued
(d) To reserve and exercise gas processing rights, a Shipper or other
gas processing rights owner must (i) contract for processing with a
processing plant owner or operator with active processing facilities
accessible from Transporter's system, (ii) notify Transporter on
Transporter's gas processing rights election form at least five Business Days
in advance of the initial delivery month in which processing rights are to be
exercised of the processing rights owner's election to retain and exercise
the right to process gas tendered to Transporter and the portion of the
throughput quantity to which the election pertains, attesting to the
ownership of the gas processing rights, and (iii) cause delivery of gas to
the processing plant. A processing election shall remain in place for that
calendar month and for each month thereafter until the Shipper or other
processing rights owner notifies Transporter to the contrary by a subsequent
beginning of the month nomination to modify or terminate the processing
election. If a Shipper owns and is exercising processing rights, the Shipper
will be deemed to have elected to terminate or modify a processing election
by making nominations that direct gas deliveries to Delivery Points other
than to those upstream of the gas processing plant. Upon the effective date
of a processing election and the related conforming nominations, the
processing rights owner's election shall apply to gas that has been nominated
to flow on Transporter's system to a Delivery Point upstream of a processing
plant and is processed at the related processing plant. Transporter will not
allow any person, including a Shipper, to divert gas off-system if a
processing rights owner has designated it for processing at a processing
plant. However, any Shipper of gas for which processing rights have not been
reserved or exercised as discussed herein shall not be precluded from
nominating volumes for transportation to a Delivery Point downstream of the
physical Receipt Point on Transporter's system. In no event is Transporter
required to allow processing by displacement or backhaul.
(e) A Shipper or processing rights owner that retains and exercises
the right to process and tenders gas to Transporter for transportation and
processing to or through a processing plant shall be responsible for
transportation charges associated with the gas to be processed. The Shipper
or processing rights owner making this election shall contract directly with
the processing plant owner or operator for processing of gas nominated and
delivered to the inlet of the processing plant. Shipper's NGLs allocations
and compensation for gas processing and for any recovered NGLs shall be as
agreed between Shipper or processing rights owner and the processing plant
owner or operator.
