40.6 OPERATIONAL FLOW ORDERS
(a) In the event that, in Trailblazer's judgment, the
Advisory Actions under Section 40.5 are not sufficient to alleviate
conditions, inter alia, which threaten or could threaten the safe
operations or system integrity of Trailblazer's system or to maintain
operations required to provide efficient and reliable firm service,
Trailblazer is authorized to issue Operational Flow Orders.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Trailblazer shall
take reasonable actions to minimize the issuance and the adverse impact
of Operational Flow Orders, or of any other measure taken under this
Section 40 in response to adverse operational events on Trailblazer's
system. Trailblazer will issue Operational Flow Orders only if
necessary to maintain the pressure of its system within the range of
normal operating parameters or to respond to or prevent facility
outages or other conditions which could have a detrimental impact on
system reliability or service integrity on its system. Operational
Flow Orders shall be lifted as soon as such conditions no longer
prevail. The Operational Flow Order shall identify with specificity
the situation to be addressed and shall (in addition to mandating
specific actions) indicate voluntary actions by Shippers (increased
takes or receipts/decreased takes or receipts, etc.) which
