Common use of Transmission Owner Clause in Contracts

Transmission Owner. If Local Distribution Company reasonably determines that (i) any of Transmission Owner’s Interconnection Equipment fails to perform in a manner consistent with Good Utility Practice and the Applicable Reliability Standards, Reliability Coordinator and RTO requirements or this Agreement, or (ii) Transmission Owner has failed to perform proper testing or maintenance of its Interconnection Equipment in accordance with Good Utility Practice or this Agreement, Local Distribution Company shall give Transmission Owner written notice to take corrective action. Such written notice shall be provided by Local Distribution Company to Transmission Owner’s Site Representative as soon as practicable upon such determination. If Transmission Owner fails to initiate corrective action promptly and in any event within seven (7) business days after the delivery of such notification, and if in Local Distribution Company’s reasonable judgment leaving Transmission System connected with Local Distribution Company’s Distribution System would create an Emergency, Local Distribution Company may, with as much prior verbal notification to Transmission Owner and Balancing Authority as practicable, open only the Interconnection Point(s) needing corrective action connecting Transmission Owner and Local Distribution Company until appropriate corrective actions have been completed by Transmission Owner, as verified by Local Distribution Company. Local Distribution Company’s judgment with regard to an interruption of service under this Section 3.6.2 shall be made pursuant to Good Utility Practice and subject to Section 3.1.1 hereof. In the case of such interruption, Local Distribution Company shall immediately confer with Transmission Owner regarding the conditions causing such interruption and Transmission Owner’s recommendation concerning timely correction thereof. Both Parties shall act promptly to correct the condition leading to such interruption and to restore the connection and Interconnection Service.
