Trunk Facility Underutilization Sample Clauses

The Trunk Facility Underutilization clause defines the rights and obligations of parties when a trunk facility, such as a major pipeline or transmission line, is not being used to its expected or agreed-upon capacity. Typically, this clause outlines the procedures for identifying underutilization, the metrics or thresholds that trigger its application, and the remedies or adjustments that may follow, such as renegotiation of terms, payment adjustments, or potential reallocation of capacity. Its core function is to ensure that the costs and benefits of maintaining large-scale infrastructure are fairly distributed, and to address the financial or operational risks that arise when usage falls below planned levels.
