Cancellation of Services (a) ARTC will request the HVCCC to inform ARTC on a weekly basis of the total number of cancelled services assigned to the Access Holder in the previous week by the Live Run Superintendent Group, as collated and reported by the HVCCC, and whether the total number of cancellations assigned to the Access Holder in that week has had, in the reasonable opinion of the HVCCC, an impact on Capacity, Coal Chain Capacity or the Capacity entitlement of another access holder in that week.
(b) To avoid doubt, the number of cancelled services assigned to the Access Holder, as collated and reported by the HVCCC, may include cancellations of services scheduled to be used or operated by or on behalf of another access holder where the cancellation was assigned to the Access Holder by the Live Run Superintendent Group.
(c) If ARTC is informed by the HVCCC that the cancellations in clause 11.6(a) have had, in the reasonable opinion of the HVCCC, an impact on Capacity, Coal Chain Capacity or the Capacity entitlement of another access holder, then ARTC may remove Path Usages from the Access Holder’s Base Path Usages in the Period immediately following the Period in which the cancellations had an impact on Capacity, Coal Chain Capacity, or the contractual entitlement of another access holder.
(d) If Base Path Usages are removed in accordance with this clause 11.6(c), ARTC will delete the number of removed Path Usages from the Access Holder’s Annual Contracted Path Usages in the relevant Train Path Schedule by notice to the Access Holder. To avoid doubt, a cancellation or a reduction of Path Usages made available to the Access Holder as a result of a Capacity Shortfall under clause 6 will not constitute a cancellation under this clause 11.6.
(e) The number of Path Usages to be removed from the Access Holder under
(i) in respect of the number of cancellations assigned to the Access Holder due to a single event be no more than two; and
(ii) in total will be no more than the number of cancellations reported in clause 11.6.
(f) If ARTC is informed by the HVCCC that the cancellations reported in this clause 11.6 have had, in the reasonable opinion of the HVCCC, an impact on Capacity, Coal Chain Capacity or the Capacity entitlement of another access holder, but ARTC has not removed Base Path Usages from the Access Holder, then ARTC will provide written reasons for its decision not to remove Base Path Usages from the Access Holder to:
(i) the HVCCC; or
(ii) if requested, the Access Holder where it is not a member of the HVCCC, subject to any confidentiality restrictions, within 10 Business Days of making that decision.
(g) To avoid doubt, the Access Holder’s obligation to pay TOP Charges will be unaffected by the removal of Base Path Usages under this clause 11.6.
(h) Clause 14 does not apply to any determination by ARTC under this clause 11.6.
(i) In exercising its rights under clause 11.6, ARTC is entitled to rely on information provided by, and the recommendations and opinions of, the HVCCC.
(j) This clause 11.6 is subject to any changes arising from the review under section 5.8 of the Access Undertaking.
