18. OPERATIONAL FLOW ORDERS (Continued)

18.3 Prior to issuing an OFO, Transporter will take all

reasonable actions to minimize the issuance and

adverse consequences of the OFO. These actions may

include, but are not limited to, requiring firm

Shippers to utilize primary Points of Receipt and

Delivery and compliance with the provisions of this

Tariff and the Service Agreement.

18.4 Notices

If Transporter is required to issue an OFO,

Transporter will post a notice of such OFO on its

Web Site, telecopy or e-mail the notice to all

affected Shippers, with an explanation of the

necessity of such order, the Shipper(s) to which the

order is directed, and the anticipated duration of

such order. To the extent discrete Shipper(s) are not

identified in any notice of an OFO, such order will be

applicable to all Shippers. Transporter will post any

notice of an OFO as far in advance of the effective

date/time of the OFO as is operationally feasible,

subject to Transporter's need to protect the integrity

of the Pipeline Facilities. Transporter will provide

updated information concerning the need for the OFO

on its Web Site and will post a notice informing

Shipper(s) when any OFO in effect will be canceled.

Within a reasonable time after the OFO terminates,

Transporter will post on its Web Site a report

detailing the conditions that required the issuance

and termination of the OFO.
