RE:NAESB Triage ActionTaken for Request No. R17002

Dear Triage Subcommittee and EC members,

We have a disposition for Request No. R17002, provided below as a hyperlink.

For R17002 submitted by Kim Van Pelt on behalf of Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP and Mark Gracey on behalf of Kinder Morgan Inc:

This request is (1) found within scope; (2) to be assigned to the Wholesale Gas Quadrant (WGQ); and (3) it should be assigned to the WGQ Business Practice Subcommittee. The request proposesto modify the usage of data element Service Requester Contract for the Un-threaded Segment of the Pathed Non-Threaded Model in NAESB WGQ Standard Nos. 1.4.1 Nomination and 1.4.5 Scheduled Quantity data sets so that the usage of Service Requester Contract is changed to Business Conditional, based upon the business condition of the Transportation Service Provider receiving the nomination. Make corresponding modifications to other data sets, as needed, including the addition of any necessary validation codes to accommodate the requested change. Modify the nomination key in NAESB WGQ Standard No. 1.3.27, as appropriate, to reflect the change in the usage of Service Requester Contract. Additionally, add the data element Service Requester to the nomination key in 1.3.27 to reflect its mandatory usage in the Nomination. The request should be addressed in the normal course of business of the subcommittee.

The request was sent out on June 16 for consideration. No concerns were noted with the assignments and priorities and no requests for a conference call were made; therefore, this disposition was approved on June 30, 2017.
