Common use of NEW SERVICE Clause in Contracts

NEW SERVICE. If the consumer requests permanent service, but does not have existing facilities, the Cooperative will attempt to establish permanent service within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of an application. Installation of new service connections can only be accomplished on frozen tundra during winter months or when the location is on backfilled hard pack. If the Cooperative cannot establish service within this thirty (30) day period, it will, within fifteen (15) business days after receipt of the application, advise the applicant in writing of the reason for the delay, any interim type of service that may be available, and an estimated date when the requested service will be available.
