GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR SERVICES - continued
31.2 Terms Governing. For the purpose of minimizing operational
conflicts between various natural gas facilities with respect to
the delivery of gas to and from Transporter's facilities,
Transporter is willing to negotiate and execute OBAs with
appropriate parties that operate natural gas facilities
interconnecting with Transporter's system (any such party will be
referred to herein as the "OBA Party"). Such OBAs shall specify
the gas custody transfer procedures to be followed by Transporter
and the OBA Party for the confirmation of scheduled quantities to
be received by Transporter at Point(s) of Receipt and delivered by
Transporter at Point(s) of Delivery. Such OBAs will provide that
any variance between actual quantities and scheduled and confirmed
quantities for any day shall be resolved pursuant to the terms of
the OBA. To facilitate such determination of variances on a timely
basis, Transporter and the OBA Party will agree in the OBA on
necessary measurement and accounting procedures. Transporter shall
post on its EBB those Points of Receipt and Points of Delivery
which are subject to an OBA. Transporter will also provide to any
party upon request a copy of any executed OBA. A form of OBA is
contained among the forms of service agreements contained in this
tariff.
31.3 Prerequisite to Execution. It is Transporter's intent to negotiate
and execute OBAs on a non-discriminatory basis with any OBA Party.
However, Transporter shall have no obligation to negotiate and
execute OBAs with any Party that:
(a) is not creditworthy as determined pursuant to Section 22.8 of
these General Terms and Conditions, substituting the term "OBA
Party" for "Shipper" for this purpose;
(b) does not maintain a gas control operation which is staffed on
a continuous, around-the-clock basis;
(c) does not have electronic flow measurement equipment to which
Transporter has access at the interconnect points which are
proposed to be subject to the OBA;
