Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 18, September 16, 2024
(a) The purchaser may notify the Authority that for a period of not less than 60 days nor more than one year (surplus period) specified amounts of water available to it under the uninterruptible service provided for in the water purchase contract (surplus water) will be surplus to the needs of the purchaser, which notice shall be given not less than 30 days nor more than 90 days prior to commencement of the surplus period.
(b) Following receipt of such notice, the Authority shall notify each other purchaser of the availability for purchase of the surplus water (and any surplus water under any other water purchase contract) on the same basis as provided for short-term service in the most current rate schedule.
(c) To the extent that the Authority shall receive purchase requests from purchasers for surplus water (which are in addition to and not in substitution for purchases of water on a short-term service or standby service basis under existing water purchase contracts), it will use its best commercially reasonable efforts to provide such surplus water (on a pro rated basis if other surplus water is also available) to such purchasers.
(d) The Authority shall pay over to the purchaser, or credit against the amounts due or to become due from the purchaser under the water purchase contract, the amounts received from the sale of the surplus water arising under the water purchase contract after first deducting therefrom all costs and expenses (pro rated as appropriate) incurred by the Authority in carrying out this section.
