OFO DAILY ACTION ALERT FOR DOWNSTREAM OF STA 245 EFFECTIVE NOVEMBER 10, 2017
Tennessee anticipates very limited flexibility due to anticipated colder weather downstream of Station 245 on the 200 Line this weekend. Effective 9:00 AM CCT, for the Gas Day of Friday, November 10, 2017, and until further notice, Tennessee is issuing a Daily Action Alert OFO for downstream of Station 245 for all LMS-PA, SA contracts acting as balancing parties, LMS-MA and LMS-PL Balancing Parties. This action is pursuant to Article X, Section 3 of the General Terms and Conditions of Tennessee's FERC Gas Tariff.
All delivery point operators downstream of Station 245 on the 200 Line are required to keep actual daily takes out of the system equal to or less than scheduled quantities regardless of their cumulative imbalance position. All receipt point operators downstream of Station 245 on the 200 Line are required to keep actual daily deliveries into the system equal to or greater than scheduled quantities regardless of their cumulative imbalance position. In addition, it is essential that delivery point and receipt point operators schedule gas at meters commensurate with physical flow within the affected area. All LMS-PA, SA contracts acting as balancing parties, LMS-MA and LMS-PL Balancing Parties are required to maintain an actual daily flow rate not exceeding 2% of scheduled quantities or 500 dths, whichever is greater for under-deliveries into the system and over-takes from the system. Customers will be assessed a rate of $.2198 per dekatherm for that portion of physical quantities related to over-takes by delivery point operators and under-deliveries by receipt point operators which exceed this tolerance.
THIS DAILY OFO ACTION ALERT WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. TENNESSEE WILL INFORM CUSTOMERS BY EBB WHEN THIS OFO WILL BE LIFTED.
ADDITIONALLY, THE FOLLOWING OFOS WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE:
-OFO DAILY CRITICAL DAY 1 FOR ALL AREAS SOUTH OF STATION 25 FOR OVER-TAKES FROM THE SYSTEM AND UNDER-DELIVERIES INTO THE SYSTEM FOR ALL BALANCING PARTIES
-MONTHLY OFO CRITICAL DAY 1 FOR ZONE 4 FOR LMSPAS FOR OVER-DELIVERIES INTO THE SYSTEM
TENNESSEE WILL INFORM CUSTOMERS BY EBB WHEN THESE OFOs WILL BE LIFTED.
Additionally, Tennessee would like to remind all operators/agents of power plants directly connected to TGP of certain parameters of FERC Order 698 requirements. Tennessee requires that all power plant operators submit burn profiles and nominations prior to gas flow. Due to very limited flexibility, power plant operators are encouraged to burn ratably based on scheduled volumes. The burn profiles should be sent to TGPGasControl@Kindermorgan.com. The latest burn profile template can be found by accessing the Tennessee web site and following the steps below.

In the event this OFO is not sufficient to maintain the operational integrity of the system, Tennessee may escalate to a Critical Day I, Critical Day II, or an OFO Balancing Alert for downstream of Station 245 on the 200 Line. Meter Specific or Hourly OFOs may also be utilized if deemed necessary. Tennessee cannot accept unscheduled imbalances and requires all customers to nominate and schedule all payback requests.
Tennessee will deem all affected Shippers to be in compliance with the actions specified in the Daily OFO if after the measurement close the actual system conditions were opposite to the conditions for which the OFO was issued.
Please contact your Scheduler if you have any questions.
