3. PRIORITY OF SERVICE
(a) Service under Rate Schedule LPS is provided on an
interruptible basis. Priorities of service for the purposes of
scheduling and curtailment shall be governed by Section 5 of the
General Terms and Conditions of this Tariff. Under this Rate
Schedule LPS, Natural shall only park gas or loan gas to the extent
Natural determines that such actions will not adversely affect its
ability to satisfy any of its firm service obligations or to meet
system operational needs. Natural may, in a non-discriminatory
manner, interrupt or decline to schedule any or all of the services
hereunder and, if such actions are required to avoid interference
with firm service or to protect the integrity of the system, will do
so prior to invoking the procedures of Section 23, Operational
Control, of the General Terms and Conditions of this Tariff.
(b) In the event it is necessary to interrupt, curtail or
suspend service under any LPS RO because of operational conditions
or to satisfy obligations with a higher priority, Natural shall
provide actual notice to Shipper. In that event, Shipper must comply
with the directive(s) contained in Natural's notification within the
time specified in the notice, consistent with the remainder of this
subsection (b).
(1) Without limitation of the foregoing, Natural shall
to the extent practicable provide such notice effective no later
than the next day prior to declaring Critical Time or issuing
Operational Flow Orders under Section 23 of the General Terms and
Conditions of this Tariff, Operational Control, if Natural
reasonably determines that doing so would facilitate system
operations and minimize the frequency and severity of Critical Time
or Operational Flow Orders in the affected region(s).
