In the event of an emergency or other condition causing a shortage in the amount of electricity for distributor to meet the demand on its system, distributor may, by an allocation method deemed equitable by distributor, fix the amount of electricity to be made available for use by customer and/or may otherwise restrict the time during which customer may make use of electricity and the uses which customer may make of electricity. If such actions become necessary, customer may request a variance because of unusual circumstances including matters adversely affecting the public health, safety and welfare. If customer fails to comply with such allocation or restriction, distributor may take such remedial actions as it deems appropriate under the circumstances including temporarily disconnecting electric service and charging additional amounts because of the excess use of electricity. The provisions of the section entitled "Interruption of service"

of this schedule of rules and regulations are applicable to any such allocation or restriction.
