GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(b) Measuring Equipment Out of Repair. If, for any reason, any
measuring equipment is out of service or out of repair so that the quantity of
gas delivered is not correctly indicated by the reading thereof, the gas
delivered during such period shall be estimated by the parties on the basis of
the best data available using the first of the following methods which is
feasible:
(i) By using the registration of any check measuring equipment
installed and accurately registering; or
(ii) By correcting the error if the percentage of error is
ascertainable by calibration, test or mathematical calculations;
or
(iii) By estimating the quantity of delivery by deliveries during
a preceding period under similar conditions when the meter was
registering accurately.
(c) Adjustment of Inaccuracies. If any meter is found to be
inoperative or inaccurate, it shall be adjusted to register correctly. The
amount of error shall be determined by the most accurate method found
feasible, and, if the error shall have resulted in an error of more than two
percent (2%) in the measurement of gas delivered, then the calculated
deliveries of gas through such meter shall be accurately adjusted to
compensate for such error. Such adjustment shall be made for such period of
inaccuracy as may be definitely known, or if not known, then for one-half the
period since the date of the last meter test. Measurement data corrections
must be processed within six (6) months of the production month with a three
(3) month rebuttal period. This time limitation will not apply in the case of
deliberate omission or misrepresentation or mutual mistake of fact. Also, the
parties' other statutory or contractual rights shall not otherwise be
diminished by this provision. A meter adjustment or correction becomes a
prior period adjustment after the fifth business day following the production
month. Any measurement prior period adjustments are taken back to the
production month.
