Purpose

A Retroactive Nomination (“Retro”) is any request to change a nomination after the gas day is over. Retro nomination changes are not intended as a replacement for accurate and timely nominations.

Procedures

· Retro requests must be submitted to the following within 7 business days:

o Assigned Scheduling Representative

o SNGcsSchedulers2@kindermorgan.com; Scheduling group mailbox

· Email should clearly state all proposed changes to effective date, meters, volumes, contracts, and counterparties.

· All affected counterparties should be copied on the email requesting their approval and must submit their own independent retro request following the same guidelines within the same 7 day period.

· Batch must be entered into DART and should ONLY include the meters that are impacted.

· Once all affected parties approve the Retro request, EEC will review the request and either approve or deny it via email based on the below list of acceptable and not acceptable reasons.

List of acceptable and unacceptable reasons when submitting request

ONLY requests with acceptable reasons, as listed below will be reviewed by Scheduling for approval and processing. Once we receive counterparty approvals and related retro requests via email, Scheduling will review.

           Acceptable

· Discrepancies with confirming parties (EDI mismatch, late cuts, etc.)

· Transposed GID or meter number

· EPSQ/system balancing issues

· No currently scheduled volumes at meter preventing allocations of physical flow (1 dth nom)

· In-field storage transfers that do not violate applicable posted notices

           NOT Acceptable

· Truing up nominations that should have been entered within any of the 5 NAESB cycles or within the Out of Cycle process

· Customer data entry errors or confirming-party discrepancies

· Penalty-avoidance requests, unnominated new business, or negatively impacting an imbalance

EEC Reserves the Right to Reject

· Requests that are administratively burdensome, such as those that will affect multiple pooling contracts or multiple Buy/Sell transactions

Disclaimer

· Exceptions to the above may be considered on a case-by-case and not unduly discriminatory basis

· Retro requests may be approved or disapproved at the pipeline’s discretion
