The District owns and operates a communication system as an integral component of its electric system. The communication system is engineered to meet the current and prospective needs of the District. The communication system is an Ethernet wide area network. Access to the system is provided through an Ethernet connection to the wide area network. Typical of Ethernet networks, actual throughput will be "as available" up to the requested megabits per second. The District shall determine the availability of capacity on its communication system as requests are made for use of the communication system. Use of the communication system shall be billed at rates set forth in Schedule 6 or as set forth in separate agreements approved by the Board of Commissioners.
