Mr. McCluskey stated that the WGQ BPS previously discussed Standards Request R17002 during the June 27, 2017 WGQ BPS conference call. Ms. Van Pelt stated that R17002 was submitted by Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP and Kinder Morgan Inc. and asks to modify the usage of data element “Service Requester Contract” for the Unthreaded segment of the Pathed Nonthreaded Model in NAESB WGQ Standard Nos 1.4.1 Nomination and 1.4.5 Scheduled Quantity data sets so that the usage of the data element is changed to Business Conditional, based upon the business condition of the Transportation Service Provider receiving the nomination.

Ms. Van Pelt stated that Boardwalk Pipeline Partners, LP, Kinder Morgan Inc., and National Fuel Gas Distribution discussed an alternative proposal before the call. Mr. Connor clarified that the revised paragraph is an exception to the nomination key. Ms. Hogge suggested that “Service Requester Information” should be replaced with “Service Requester Data.”

Ms. Van Pelt, seconded by Mr. Lander, moved to adopt a motion to approve the modifications to NAESB WGQ Standard No. 13.27 as revised during the meeting along with instructions to the joint Information Requirements and Technical Subcommittees.

Mr. McCluskey opened the floor for discussion. The subcommittee discussed whether proper notice was given to have the vote. Mr. Lander requested a balanced vote. The motion unanimously passed the balanced vote.
