GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
15.4 Applicability of OFO: Transporter shall make an OFO as localized
as reasonably practicable based on Transporter's good faith and reasonable
judgment concerning the situation requiring remediation, so that an OFO will
be directed (a) first to OFO Recipients causing the problem necessitating
the OFO or delivering gas in the area of the system in which there is an
operational problem, and (b) second to those OFO Recipients delivering gas
in the area of the system where action is required to correct the problem
necessitating the OFO. Prior to issuing the OFO, Transporter will attempt,
if sufficient time is available, to alleviate the situation necessitating
the OFO through the application of the scheduling and curtailment provisions
in Section 11 of these General Terms and Conditions. Transporter will tailor
the OFO to match the severity of the known or anticipated operational
problem as more fully stated below.
15.5 Notice: All OFOs will be issued via telephone and followed by
a facsimile to the affected Shippers, with subsequent posting on
Transporter's Internet Website, and by notice to the affected parties
through their prior choice of Electronic Notice Delivery mechanism(s). The
OFO will state (1) the time and date of issuance, (2) the actions
Shipper/operator is required to take, (3) the time by which Shipper must be
in compliance with the OFO, (4) the anticipated duration of the OFO, and (5)
other terms that Transporter may reasonably require to ensure the
effectiveness of the OFO. After the OFO has expired, Transporter shall post
on its Internet Website the factors that caused the OFO to be issued and
lifted.
15.6 Action Alerts: If Transporter determines that due to (1) an
ongoing or anticipated weather event, (2) a known equipment problem, or (3)
the anticipated continuation of a current system operational problem, action
is necessary to avoid a situation in which the pipeline system integrity is
jeopardized or Transporter's ability to render firm service is threatened,
Transporter may issue an Action Alert as set out herein to forestall
development of the situation.
(a) Issuance of Alerts: Transporter will issue Action Alerts using
the procedures in Section 15.5, and in two stages. A minimum of 48 hours
prior to the time that a Shipper must take the action specified in the
Alert, Transporter will issue a notice informing the Shipper of the known or
anticipated problem on the system, the action that Shipper will be required
to take, and the anticipated time it will be required to take the action.
Shipper will be expected to take preliminary actions to assist Transporter
in avoiding a system problem. A minimum of 30 hours prior to the time when
the Shipper is required to take the designated action, Transporter will
issue specified action instructions. Conformance with these instructions
will be mandatory. Transporter, to the greatest extent feasible, will issue
the action instructions so that the time of mandatory conformance will
correspond with the beginning of the gas Day.
