GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (continued)
16.6 In the event that, in Transporter's judgment, action is required
to avoid a system integrity issue, Transporter may issue Action
Alerts.
(a) Issuance of Action Alerts: Action Alerts will be noticed in
accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 16.5 and
will be issued a minimum of four hours, or such shorter
period of time as Transporter deems reasonable under the
circumstances, prior to the required action by the
Shipper/point operator.
(b) Required Actions: Action Alerts can be issued to effect any
of the following:
(i) restriction or curtailment of interruptible services;
(ii) restrictions of receipts or deliveries at specific
Point(s) of Receipt or Point(s) of Delivery covered by
an Operational Balancing Agreement to the aggregate
MDQ under the firm Service Agreements whose Primary
Receipt Points and/or Primary Delivery Points are at
the affected locations;
(iii) forced balancing such that point operators will be
required to assure that nominations equal flows or
that receipts and deliveries fall within the tolerance
level designated in the Action Alert; and/or
(iv) any action required to maintain the integrity of
Transporter's System.
16.7 In the event that (1) Shipper/point operator does not respond to
an Action Alert, or (2) the actions taken thereunder are
insufficient to correct the system problem for which the Action
Alert was issued, or (3) there is insufficient time to carry out
the procedures with respect to Action Alerts, Transporter may
periodically take unilateral action, including the curtailment of
firm transportation service, to maintain the operational integrity
of Transporter's system (or any portion thereof). For purposes of
this Section 16.7, the operational integrity of Transporter's
system shall encompass the integrity of the physical system and
the preservation of physical assets and their performance, the
overall operating performance of the entire physical system (or
any portion thereof), and the maintenance (on a reliable and
operationally sound basis) of total system deliverability and the
quality of Natural Gas delivered. Notice of an OFO will be
provided pursuant to and in accordance with Section 16.5 above.
