Curtailment Any payment of principal on a Mortgage Loan, made by or on behalf of the related Mortgagor, other than a Scheduled Payment, a prepaid Scheduled Payment or a Payoff, which is applied to reduce the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan.
Nature of Service 3.1 ISO-NE and the NYISO shall, to the maximum extent each deems consistent with the safe and proper operation of its system, the furnishing of economical, dependable and satisfactory services by its participants, and the obligations of its participants to other parties, make available to the other Party when a system Emergency exists on the other Party's system, Emergency Energy from its system's available generating capability in excess of the system’s load requirements (i.e., load requirements alone, not load plus reserve requirements) up to the transfer limits in use between the two Balancing Authority Areas. Emergency Energy is provided in cases of emergency outages of generating units, transmission lines or other equipment, or to meet other sudden and unforeseen circumstances such as forecast errors, or to provide sufficient Operating Reserve. Normally, a Party requests Emergency Energy from the other Party as a last resort, when market-based real-time energy transactions are not available, or not available in a timely fashion in order to maintain its ten-minute reserve requirement. At the time the Emergency Energy sale is being initiated, the Party delivering such Emergency Energy shall describe the Emergency Energy transaction as being one of the following: (1) “delivered out of ten-minute reserve”; (2) “delivered out of thirty-minute reserve” where such a delivery could reasonably be expected to be recalled if the Party delivering the Emergency Energy needed the generation for a reserve pick-up or other Emergency; or (3) “delivered above and beyond ten-minute and thirty-minute reserves” where the Party delivering such Emergency Energy is normally expected to be able to continue delivering the energy following a reserve pick-up.
3.2 The Parties are participants in the NPCC and are expected to comply with NPCC Criteria, Guides and Procedures. Such NPCC Criteria, Guides and Procedures include “Emergency Operation Criteria” (Document A-3), which describes the basic factors to be considered by a Balancing Authority Area in formulating plans and procedures to be followed in an Emergency. A principle of operation in this NPCC Criteria is that upon receiving a request for assistance to mitigate an Emergency, a Balancing Authority Area would provide “maximum reasonable assistance” to a neighboring Balancing Authority Area. Such reasonable assistance would not normally require the shedding of firm load.
3.3 Normally, the Party experiencing or anticipating an Emergency would request Emergency Energy from the other Party in accordance with this Schedule and applicable NPCC Criteria, Guides and Procedures after all market-based real-time transactions have been scheduled, unless there is an immediate need for such Emergency Energy in order to maintain system Reliability.
3.4 In the event a Party is unable to provide Emergency Energy to the other when needed, but there is energy available from a Third Party Balancing Authority Area supplier, the Party will use reasonable efforts to acquire and transmit such energy to the other Party where feasible.
