<br />methodologies, the Parties agree to submit this issue to binding arbitration <br />pursuant to Chapter 171 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code. <br /> <br />3.3 BILLING AND PAYMENT. <br /> <br />(a) Volume Charge. Each month during the term of this Agreement, Paris shall <br />read the Meter(s) measuring Treated Water being provided to LCWSD. The <br />numbers of gallons of Treated Water measured by the Meter(s) will be <br />multiplied by the appropriate Volume Rate to get the Volume Charge. Paris <br />shall prepare and deliver to LCWSD a statement showing the Volume Charge <br />for all Treated Water delivered to LCWSD, in addition to the monthly <br />Demand Charge and Capacity Charge. Payment shall be made by the lQth day <br />after receipt of the statement. <br /> <br />(b) Demand Charge. The Demand Charge shall be paid in twelve equal monthly <br />installments with the payment for the Volume Charge and Capacity Charge. <br /> <br />(c) Capacity Charge. The Capacity Charge shall be paid in twelve equal <br />monthly installments with the payment for the Volume Charge and Demand <br />Charge. <br /> <br />(d) Excess Demand Charge. If LCWSD's actual total coincidental Individual <br />Maximum Diversion Rates exceed the Maximum Hour Capacity Demand, <br />LCWSD shall also pay to Paris the Excess Demand Charge. The Excess <br />Demand Charge shall be calculated by subtracting the Maximum Hour <br />Capacity Demand from LCWSD' s actual total coincidental Individual <br />Maximum Diversion Rates to determine the Excess Demand. The Excess <br />Demand, stated in gallons per hour, shall be applied to the Rate Year's <br />Capacity Charge expressed in dollars per gallons per hour and then multiplied <br />by a factor of 1.5 times. LCWSD shall be notified within thirty (30) days of <br />Paris' determination that LCWSD has exceeded its Maximum Hour Capacity <br />Demand. LCWSD shall be provided the Excess Demand Charge billing on or <br />before June 1 st of the subsequent Rate Year with full payment due within <br />thirty (30) days from receipt of invoices. During a temporary emergency <br />condition created by unforeseeable mechanical failure or by unprecedented <br />high rate of Treated Water usage, such as might result from a major fire or a <br />major water main break, it may be necessary that Treated Water be withdrawn <br />from the Paris system at a rate of usage in excess of that required for the <br />Maximum Hour Capacity Demand. It is agreed that the Excess Demand <br />Charge that would normally be applicable shall not apply for such bona fide <br />emergency withdrawals provided that Paris is notified in writing within 10 <br />days of LCWSD's notification by Paris that LCWSD exceeded the Maximum <br />Hour Capacity Demand. In any event, the Volume Charge for all Treated <br />Water delivered shall be due and payable as described elsewhere herein. <br /> <br />14 Paris/LCWSD Wholesale Treated Water Contract <br /> <br />''-'.- <br />
