Decommissioning (a) The Contractor shall submit to the Designated Authority, for its approval, pursuant to sub-paragraph 4.11(d)(v), a Decommissioning Plan for the Development Area and a schedule of provisions for the Decommissioning Costs Reserve. (b) The Decommissioning Plan shall be revised and resubmitted to the Designated Authority for its approval at such times as are reasonable having regard to the likelihood that the Decommissioning Plan (including cost estimates thereunder) may need to be revised. (c) The Contractor shall carry out the Decommissioning Plan substantially in accordance with its terms. (d) Estimates of the monies required for the funding of the Decommissioning Plan shall be charged as Recoverable Costs beginning in the Calendar Year following the Calendar Year in which Commercial Production first occurs. The amount charged in each Calendar Year shall be calculated as follows: (i) The total Decommissioning costs at the expected date of Decommissioning shall first be calculated. (ii) There shall be deducted from such total Decommissioning costs the additions made to the Decommissioning Costs Reserve made, and taken as Recoverable Costs, in all previous Calendar Years together with interest on such Recoverable Costs calculated to the approved date of Decommissioning at the actual or forecast rate of Uplift (whichever is applicable). (iii) The residual Decommissioning costs, resulting from the calculations under sub-paragraph 4.14(d)(i) and (ii), shall then be discounted to the Calendar Year in question at the forecast rate of Uplift for each Calendar Year remaining until the Calendar Year of Decommissioning. (iv) The discounted total of residual Decommissioning costs shall then be divided by the total number of Calendar Years remaining prior to the Calendar Year of Decommissioning itself, including the Calendar Year in question. (v) The resultant amount shall be the addition to the Decommissioning Costs Reserve for the Calendar Year in question. (vi) It is the intention of this provision that the total accumulated provision allowed, including interest calculated to the Calendar Year of Decommissioning at the rate of Uplift, will equal the total Decommissioning costs. (vii) If the amount in sub-paragraph 4.14(d)(v) is a negative amount, then such amount shall be treated as a reduction of Recoverable Costs for the Calendar Year in question.
