Maintenance of Facilities 5.1 The Network Customer shall maintain its facilities necessary to reliably receive capacity and energy from the Host Transmission Owner’s transmission system consistent with Good Utility Practice. The Transmission Provider or Host Transmission Owner, as appropriate, may curtail service under this Operating Agreement to limit or prevent damage to generating or transmission facilities caused by the Network Customer’s failure to maintain its facilities in accordance with Good Utility Practice, and the Transmission Provider or Host Transmission Owner may seek as a result any appropriate relief from the Commission. 5.2 The Designated Representatives shall establish procedures to coordinate the maintenance schedules, and return to service, of the generating resources and transmission and substation facilities, to the greatest extent practical, to ensure sufficient transmission resources are available to maintain system reliability and reliability of service. 5.3 The Network Customer shall obtain: (1) concurrence from the Transmission Provider before beginning any scheduled maintenance of facilities which could impact the operation of the Transmission System over which transmission service is administered by Transmission Provider; and (2) clearance from the Transmission Provider when the Network Customer is ready to begin maintenance on a transmission line or substation. The Transmission Provider shall coordinate clearances with the Host Transmission Owner. The Network Customer shall notify the Transmission Provider and the Host Transmission Owner as soon as practical at the time when any unscheduled or forced outages occur and again when such unscheduled or forced outages end.
