H.2  Flow Rates and Pressure

(a)  The Company shall control the rate of flow to the Delivery Point to maintain flow and pressure at the Delivery Point within the limits defined in Table H-1 (Flow Rate and Pressure). Each Day shall be divided into the [•] Delivery Periods specified in Table H-1 or into such shorter Delivery Periods as may be specified by the Agency from time-to-time by written notice to the Company (each, a "Delivery Period"). The Agency shall specify for each Day not later than [•] p.m. of the preceding Day the quantity, subject to the limits set out in Table H-1 and expressed in cubic meters, of Treated Water to be conveyed to the Delivery Point by the Company during each Delivery Period (the "Period Deliverable Quantity"). If the Agency requests a "Period Deliverable Quantity" which is outside limits set out in Table H-1, the Company shall have the right to accept or reject the Agency request. The sum of the Period Deliverable Quantities for all Delivery Periods for a Day shall be equal to the Nominated Daily Quantity for that Day determined in accordance with Section 7.3 (Quantity of Treated Water Supplied). Except as otherwise previously agreed in writing by the Agency, the rate of flow during each Delivery Period shall be controlled by the Company to be within ±[•]% of the flow required to provide the Period Deliverable Quantity at a constant rate over the full duration of each Delivery Period, subject to the limits set out in Table H-1 (Flow Rate and Pressure) and to the flow of Raw Water available at the intake point. In consideration of the above, the Agency acknowledges that the pressure at the Delivery Point will be determined entirely by the capacity of the Agency's water supply and distribution systems to distribute the specified volume within the prevailing Delivery Period.

(b)  The maximum pressure limits in Table H-1 (Flow Rate and Pressure) are intended to prevent the occurrence of leakage caused by excessive stress to the Agency's pipes and fittings. The Company shall constantly monitor the pressure and rate of flow of Treated Water at the Delivery Point to ensure that this parameter is met.
