Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 6, March 18, 2024

(a) The time required for transmission of waters into the Raritan Basin and/or from the Delaware Basin to reach the user will depend on location of the purchaser's point of diversion or use, antecedent hydraulic/hydrologic conditions and magnitude of composite scheduled diversions.

(b) For the purpose of estimating such travel time the user shall by telephone, notify the New Jersey Water Supply Authority on every Monday at a time mutually agreed upon of the user's preliminary estimated daily demands for the week starting on the following Monday.

(c) When required by the New Jersey Water Supply Authority, the user shall submit in writing to the New Jersey Water Supply Authority a schedule of normal withdrawals for its point(s) of diversion.

(d) The user shall notify the New Jersey Water Supply Authority by telephone at a time mutually agreed upon and a minimum of 48 hours in advance of pending departures from a set schedule as set forth in (b) and (c) above due to plant shutdown or other causes, and in the event of emergency departure from said schedule the user shall immediately notify the New Jersey Water Supply Authority or its designated representative at such place and in such manner as the New Jersey Water Supply Authority or its designated representative may from time to time designate with confirming notices of any departures in writing.

1. The 48 hour notification requirement as it applies to the Raritan Basin (Spruce Run/Round Valley) will be evaluated in the event that the Confluence Reservoir is constructed and becomes operational.

(e) The user shall similarly notify the New Jersey Water Supply Authority or its representative indicating resumption of a normal schedule with confirming notices in writing.

(f) In the event the user fails to notify the New Jersey Water Supply Authority or its designated representative of the departure from or a return to normal schedule, and the facilities and appurtenances of the New Jersey Water Supply Authority's systems are physically or financially stressed (for example, an embankment damaged or an unnecessary pumping demand incurred), the costs of such damage or stress, in whole or in part, shall be paid by the user as determined and billed by the New Jersey Water Supply Authority.
