OFO DAILY CRITICAL DAY 1 LIFTED FOR ALL OF ZONES 2,3,4 AND PART OF ZONE 5 EFFECTIVE 1-22-19
Effective for today's Gas Day of Tuesday, January 22, 2019, and until further notice, Tennessee Gas Pipeline, L.L.C. (“Tennessee”) is LIFTING the existing OFO Daily Critical Day 1 for all Zones 2, 3, 4 and part of Zone 5 due to milder temperatures moving into those areas. THE OFO DAILY CRITICAL DAY 1 WILL CONTINUE TO BE IN EFFECT FOR ALL AREAS EAST OF STA 245 IN ZONE 5 ON THE 200 LINE AND FOR ALL OF ZONE 6 ON BOTH THE 300 (EAST OF MLV 336) AND 200 LINES for all Balancing Parties (including LMS-PA, SA contracts acting as balancing parties, LMS-MA, and LMS-PL balancing parties). This action is pursuant to Article X, Section 4 of the General Terms and Conditions of Tennessee's FERC Gas Tariff.
All delivery point operators in all areas east of Station 245 in Zone 5 on the 200 Line and for all of Zone 6 on both the 300 (east of MLV 336) and 200 lines are still 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 in all areas east of Station 245 in Zone 5 on the 200 Line and for all of Zone 6 on both the 300 (east of MLV 336) and 200 lines are still required to keep actual daily receipts into the system equal to or greater than scheduled quantities regardless of their cumulative imbalance position. In addition, it is essential that delivery point operators schedule gas at meters commensurate with takes within the affected areas. 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 $5.00 plus the applicable Regional Daily Spot Price per dekatherm for that portion of physical quantities related to under-deliveries by receipt point operators and over-takes by delivery point operators which exceed this tolerance.
THIS DAILY OFO CRITICAL DAY 1 WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.
TENNESSEE WILL INFORM CUSTOMERS BY EBB WHEN THIS OFO WILL BE LIFTED.
In the event this OFO is not sufficient to maintain the operational integrity of the system, Tennessee may escalate to an OFO Critical Day II, an OFO Balancing Alert, Meter Specific OFO(s) or Hourly OFO(s). Tennessee cannot accept unscheduled imbalances and requires all customers to nominate and schedule all payback requests.
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.
