Section that require actions by Shippers in order to: (1)
alleviate conditions that threaten or could threaten the safe
operations or integrity of Transporter's system; (2) maintain
pipeline operations at the pressures required to provide efficient
and reliable services; (3) have adequate gas supplies in the
system to deliver on demand; (4) maintain service to all Shippers
and for all services; (5) maintain the system in balance for the
foregoing purposes or for the purpose of preventing undue
imbalances with an interconnecting entity; and (6) respond at any
time to requirements imposed by an entity with which Transporter
interconnects.
8.2 Applicability of OFO: To the extent practicable, based on
Transporter's good faith judgment concerning the situations
requiring remediation, an OFO will be directed: (1) first, to
Shippers causing the problem necessitating the OFO; (2) second, to
Shippers transporting gas in the area of the system in which there
is an operational problem; and (3) third, to those Shippers with
service affected in the area of the system where action is
required to correct the problem necessitating the OFO. Transporter
will notify affected Shippers promptly once an OFO has been
terminated.
8.3 Notice: All OFOs will be issued via telephone, facsimile, or
other mutually agreeable method, to the affected Shipper(s). The
OFO will set forth: (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) any other terms that
Transporter may reasonably require to ensure the effectiveness of
the OFO.
Each Shipper must designate two (2) persons, for Transporter to
contact on operating matters at any time, on a 24-hour a day, 365-
day a year basis. Such contact persons must have adequate
authority and expertise to deal with such operating matters. If
Transporter cannot contact any Shipper because that Shipper has
failed to designate a contact person or Shipper's contact person
is unavailable, Transporter shall not be responsible for any
consequences that could have been prevented by communication.
Transporter, however, will make reasonable continuing efforts to
notify the affected Shipper. To the extent practicable,
Transporter shall use reasonable efforts to provide an advance
warning of a possible OFO.
