16. ALLOCATION PROCEDURES
16.1 In the event that gas is scheduled for any day to be received or
delivered by Pipeline at Point(s) of Receipt or Point(s) of
Delivery on Pipeline's system for Customer, Pipeline shall
allocate quantities received or delivered as set forth in
Paragraph 16.2 and make such daily operational allocations
available within one (1) business day after the end of the gas
day. Allocated quantities and imbalances should be expressed in
the same units as the nominated quantities. In the event that the
allocation information as specified in the provisions of Paragraph
16.2 is not provided, the Pipeline shall allocate actual
quantities as set forth in the provisions of Paragraph 16.3.
16.2 (a) Pipeline shall allocate on each day actual gas quantities
received or delivered by Pipeline among all scheduled
quantities. Such allocations shall be based on 1) the
existance of an OBA at the affected point or location; or
2) in the absences of an OBA, such allocation shall be based
on the PDA(s) submitted to Pipeline during the business day
prior to such gas day by Customer, Customer's agent or the
Point Operator. Such PDA(s) may be submitted to Pipeline in
writing or electronically. A PDA, whether submitted by
Customer, Customer's agent or the Point Operator, upstream

point confirmation shall be a NAESB approved allocation

defined by NAESB and, shall set forth sufficient information
to describe the allocation priority for each Point of
Receipt and Point of Delivery when actual quantities
received or delivered exceed scheduled quantities, and shall
set forth sufficient information to describe the allocation
priority for each Point of Receipt and Point of Delivery
when actual quantities received or delivered are less than
scheduled quantities. PDA's submitted to Pipeline shall be
acknowledged to transmitter within fifteen (15) minutes of
receipt.
(b) It shall be the obligation of Customer to ensure that
Customer's agent and/or the Point Operator comply with the
provisions of this Section 16. In the event that a Point
Operator is responsible for scheduling receipts or
deliveries at Point(s) of Receipt or Point(s) of Delivery,
Pipeline shall first rely on a PDA submitted by Customer.
In the event that Customer has designated an agent for
scheduling of receipts or deliveries, then the PDA submitted
by Customer's agent shall have precedence over a PDA
