Emergency Procedures. Seller shall provide Buyer with prompt verbal notification of T&D System emergencies which may reasonably be expected to affect Buyer's operation of its facilities, and Buyer shall provide Seller with prompt verbal notification of generation equipment emergencies which may reasonably be expected to affect Seller's operations. Said verbal notification shall be followed within 24 hours with written notification. The written notification shall describe the extent of damage or deficiency, anticipated length of outage and the corrective action. If a Party determines in its good faith judgment that an emergency endangers or could endanger life or property, the Party recognizing the problem shall take such action as may be reasonable and necessary to prevent, avoid, or mitigate injury, damage, or loss. If, however, the emergency involves transmission or distribution electrical equipment, Buyer shall notify the System Operator, and shall obtain the consent of such personnel, prior to performing any switching operations. Buyer and Seller each may, consistent with Good Utility Practices, have the System Operator take whatever actions or inactions it deems necessary during emergency operating conditions, without liability to the other Party for such actions or inactions, in order to: (i) preserve public safety; (ii) preserve the integrity of the T&D System or Buyer's equipment or property, (iii) limit or prevent damage, or (iv) expedite restoration of service.
