Customer is aware that GSB will aggregate and publish on the Website or make available via MyGSB the expected overall use of the GSB Facility to comply with Legal Requirements and to assign Interruptible Capacity. 5.3 Any Request shall be made before the Requests Close Time. GSB shall only process the hours in a REQEST that follow the Requests Close Time applicable to the moment such REQEST is received. 5.4 GSB will treat the absence of any REQEST as a zero (0) request. 5.5 Each Request must specify: 5.5.1 the Gas Flow Day; 5.5.2 the Customer’s identity; 5.5.3 its unique contract code as assigned by GSB; and 5.5.4 for each hour of the Gas Flow Day the Preliminary Quantities of Gas in kWh describing an Injection Request, Withdrawal Request or a zero Request. . 5.6 The Customer shall not make a Withdrawal Request if execution of such Request would cause the Customer’s Gas-in-Storage to fall below zero (0). 5.7 Any Injection Request or Withdrawal Request that exceeds Firm Capacity shall be treated as a Request for Interruptible Capacity. 5.8 A REQEST will be rejected if: 5.8.1 the Request is received before the Gas Flow Day D minus ninety (90) Days; 5.8.2 the Withdrawal Request exceeds the aggregate Registered Withdrawal Capacity of all Storage Customers; 5.8.3 the Injection Request exceeds the aggregate Registered Injection Capacity of all Storage Customers; or 5.8.4 the Request does not contain the information included in Paragraphs 9.4.1 - 9.4.4 of these Operating Guidelines; or 5.8.5 the message doesn’t comply with the message standard. 5.9 Following receipt of a REQEST, GSB shall provide Customer with a REQEST ACKNOW.
