16. DETERMINATION OF RECEIPTS AND DELIVERIES
16.1 In the event that Gas is scheduled for any Gas Day to be received
or delivered by Steckman Ridge in a commingled stream at Point(s)
of Receipt or Point(s) of Delivery other than those covered by an
Operational Balancing Agreement on Steckman Ridge's system for the
account of one or more Customers, Steckman Ridge shall: (a)
allocate quantities received or delivered based on predetermined
allocation methodologies ("PDA") as specified in Section 16.2
below, or (b) in the event that the allocation information as
specified in Section 16.2 is not provided or is not in full
compliance with the provisions of Section 16.2, Steckman Ridge
shall allocate actual quantities as specified in Section 16.3
below for Point(s) of Receipt and Point(s) of Delivery.
16.2 Pre-Determined Allocation ("PDA"). Steckman Ridge shall allocate
for each Gas Day actual Gas quantities received or delivered by
Steckman Ridge among all scheduled quantities based on the PDA
submitted to Steckman Ridge before the end of such Gas Day by
Customer or Customer's agent or the upstream or downstream party
responsible for custody transfer (hereinafter called "Submitting
Entity"); however, a PDA is not required for any location that is
covered by an Operational Balancing Agreement between Steckman
Ridge and the operator of the location. Customer shall submit
such PDA to Steckman Ridge via the LINK® System, unless otherwise
agreed to by Steckman Ridge and Customer. Parties may agree upon
one of the following allocation methodologies: ranked, pro rata,
percentage, swing and Operator provided value. Steckman Ridge
will accept the PDA if operationally or administratively feasible.
Steckman Ridge shall accept Submitting Entity's PDA when such PDA
provides for allocation of Gas quantities among Customer'(s)
scheduled quantities at such Point(s) of Receipt or Point(s) of
Delivery (hereinafter called "Allocated Entity"). Any PDA
submitted shall be effective for the term specified in such PDA,
provided that such term may not cover a period of less than one
Gas Day or longer than the nomination period.
16.3 In the event that an allocation is not provided in accordance with
Section 16.2 herein for any given Point of Receipt or Point of
Delivery, or if an allocation is provided but is not in full
compliance with the provisions specified in Section 16.2 herein,
Steckman Ridge shall allocate the actual quantities received at
such Point of Receipt or delivered at such Point of Delivery among
the Allocated Entities not subject to an allocation based upon the
ratio that each scheduled quantity not subject to an allocation
bears to the total scheduled quantities not subject to an
allocation, and such ratio shall be applied to unallocated actual
quantities after allocating actual quantities in accordance with
an allocation submitted in full compliance with the provisions
specified in Section 16.2 herein.
16.4 Any allocation submitted in accordance with the provisions
specified in this Section 16 shall be binding as to Steckman Ridge
and as to each and every Allocated Entity at such Point(s) of
Receipt or Point(s) of Delivery on such Gas Day. Steckman Ridge
shall not be liable to any Customer or third party as a result of
Steckman Ridge's reliance on any allocation from Submitting Entity
in accordance with the provisions specified in this Section 16.
