Common use of Supplying Service Clause in Contracts

Supplying Service. Service is supplied under and pursuant to these GAS SERVICE REGULATIONS and any modifications or additions thereto lawfully made and approved by the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio. Nothing contained in the Company’s tariffs shall relieve the Company of its duties and obligations under all applicable Federal and State gas pipeline safety laws and regulations. Service is supplied under a given rate schedule at such points of delivery as are adjacent to the Company facilities which are, in the Company’s judgment, adequate and suitable as to capacity and pressure, to supply such service; otherwise, special agreements between the customer and the Company may be required. Should the gas requirements of the customer change, as to capacity or use, the Company may require that the service be supplied from a different facility if the original facility is or becomes inadequate and unsuitable for its intended purpose. If special agreements between the customer and the Company are required, gas service will not be supplied until the agreements are executed by the customer and the Company. The availability of service under this Tariff, P.U.C.O. Gas No. 18, to customers who have elected to relieve the Company of its obligation to provide commodity service under the Company's regulated GCR system supply shall be subject to the rules, regulations, and orders of the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio, including, without limitations, those contained within Case No. 85-800-GA-UNC, as may be modified from time to time. Service will not be supplied to any premises if, at the time of application for service, the applicant is indebted to Company for service previously supplied at the same or other premises until payment of such indebtedness shall have been made. Unpaid balances of previously rendered Final Bills may be transferred and included on the initial or subsequent bill for a like service account. Such transferred Final Bills, if unpaid, will be a part of the past due balance of the transferee account and subject to the Company’s collection and disconnection procedures which are governed by Chapter 4901:1-18 of the Ohio Administrative Code. The transfer of final bills is limited to like service, i.e., residential to residential, commercial to commercial, gas to gas, electric to electric, and combination to combination. The unpaid balances for electric and gas service in a combination account shall remain separate. The transfer of unpaid balances from a combination account to a transferee combination account is limited to like service, i.e., electric to electric and gas to gas. Any transfer of gas, electric or combination accounts shall not affect the residential customer’s right to elect and maintain an extended payment plan for gas, electric or combination service under Rule 4901:1-18-09 of the Ohio Administrative Code. Filed pursuant to an Order dated November 1, 2023 in Case No. 22-507-GA-AIR before the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio.
