GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(continued)
e. Failure of Meters. In the event a meter is out of service or
registering inaccurately as defined in Section (g) below, the volume
of gas delivered hereunder shall be estimated:
(1) By using the registration of any check meter or meters if
installed and accurately registering, or
(2) by correcting the error if the percentage of error is
ascertainable by calibration, test or mathematical calculation,
or
(3) by estimating the volume of delivery by during periods under
similar conditions when the meter was registering accurately.
f. Test of Meters. The accuracy of the Transporter's measuring
equipment shall be verified by the Transporter at reasonable
intervals, and at least annually in Transporter's market area, and,
if requested, in the presence of representatives of the Shipper; but
the Transporter shall not be required to verify the accuracy of such
equipment more frequently than once in any thirty-day (30) period.
In the event either the Transporter or the Shipper shall notify the
other that it desires a special test of any measuring equipment, the
Transporter and the Shipper shall cooperate to secure a prompt
verification of the accuracy of such equipment.
g. Correction of Meter Errors. If, upon test, any measuring equipment
is found to be not more than one (1) percent fast or slow, except
recording calorimeters or gravitometers whose allowable margin of
error shall be not more than one half of one percent (0.5%) fast or
slow, previous recordings of such equipment shall be considered
correct in computing deliveries of gas hereunder; but such equipment
shall be adjusted at once to record accurately. If, upon test, any
measuring equipment shall be found to be inaccurate by an amount
exceeding one (1) percent, at a recording corresponding to the
average hourly rate of flow for the period since the last preceding
test, or with respect to recording calorimeters or gravitometers
greater than one half of one percent (0.5%),
