GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
26. SEGMENTATION
(a) A Shipper may segment its firm capacity to the extent
operationally feasible. In addition, any Shipper may segment its firm
capacity in releasing to a Replacement Shipper to the extent operationally
feasible. A Shipper segmenting its own firm capacity shall effectuate
such segmentation through the nomination process under this Section 26. A
Shipper may release firm capacity on a segmented basis to the extent
consistent with this Section 26 by following the procedures set out in
Section 6 of these General Terms and Conditions.
(b) For the purposes of this Section 26, a segmentation of
firm capacity (whether of Shipper's own capacity or on release) shall be
deemed operationally feasible unless: (i) the segmentation would result in
an increase in firm contractual obligation by TransColorado on any segment
or portion of its system; or (ii) the segmentation would result in a
physical haul in a direction opposite to the primary path under the
Agreement being segmented, absent a determination by TransColorado, which
determination will be made within ten (10) business days of the request,
that it can physically perform the segmentation as requested;
(c) In the event a path is segmented under this Section, the
upstream path segment shall receive priority at all secondary points
upstream of the break point and the downstream path segment shall receive
priority at all secondary points downstream of the break point.
(d) Shippers may request to segment outside their primary
path to the extent that such a request to segment does not (a) adversely
impact Shippers' rights to access secondary points in accordance with the
General Terms and Conditions of this tariff or (b) adversely impact
TransColorado's ability to perform its contractual obligations to all
Shippers. If TransColorado determines that it may perform such
segmentation, Shippers shall have priority of service in accordance with
Section 8.1(a)(ii)(2) of these General Terms and Conditions.
(e) If TransColorado determines that it is operationally
feasible, the Shipper (or Replacement Shipper in the case of a release)
may nominate service at Receipt and Delivery Points for the path segment
that results in a reverse flow from the original path, subject to the
discount policy stated in Section 26(f) below.
(f) Subject to the availability of firm capacity at the
primary points, a Shipper, a Replacement Shipper or a Subreplacement
Shipper may change the primary Receipt or Delivery Points listed in the
