Interruptible Transportation Service. (i) Customer Providing More Gas Than Customer's Usage. In any month when either type of transportation customer's actual gas usage at any metered service connection is less than the transportation gas available for that metered service connection, the City will provide load balancing on a seasonal basis with the same tolerance limits for overtenders as Columbia Gas provides the City. As of June 1, 1989, such tolerance limits and penalties imposed by Columbia Gas were as follows: (1) During the period from November 1 through Aprr+-39 • March 31, transportation gas available for any month may exceed actual gas usage for that month by 3% or less of scheduled transportation gas for that month without penalty. (2) During the period from May April 1 through October 39 31, transportation gas available for any month may exceed actual gas usage for that month by l0% or less of scheduled transportation gas for that month without penalty. Transportation gas available for a metered service connection is the transportation gas delivered to the City, reduced by the City's shrinkage rate, plus any imbalance allowed from the previous month. When the imbalance for any metered service connection exceeds these limits, the City shall retain the excess tenders, and the customer shall pay a penalty equal to that penalty charged the City by Columbia Gas or others as a result of such excess imbalance.
