sch.3-sec.111 Pipelines not classified under pre-amended Law or jurisdictional gas legislation
This clause applies in relation to an existing pipeline that, immediately before the commencement day, was not classified as a distribution pipeline or transmission pipeline under the pre-amended Law or under a licence or authorisation granted in relation to the pipeline under jurisdictional gas legislation. On the commencement day, the pipeline is taken to have the classification shown in the register known as the ‘Gas pipeline register’ that is maintained by the AEMC under Part 15 of the Rules (the AEMC register ). However, if the AEMC register does not contain a classification for the pipeline, the service provider must apply to the AER for a classification decision within 2 months after the commencement day. Nothing in subclause (2) prevents the pipeline from being reclassified, under this Law, as a distribution pipeline or transmission pipeline. sch 3 s 111 ins 2022 No. 21 (SA) s 90 (2) (sch.3-sec.111-ssec.1) This clause applies in relation to an existing pipeline that, immediately before the commencement day, was not classified as a distribution pipeline or transmission pipeline under the pre-amended Law or under a licence or authorisation granted in relation to the pipeline under jurisdictional gas legislation.
