Due to severe weather conditions forecasted, Southern Star is issuing a Winter Weather Warning effective Sunday, January 5, 2025 9:00 AM CST.  The following actions will be taken to preserve system integrity:


Firm Storage withdrawals will be limited to MDWQ (AOS will not be allowed)


Customers with TSS and STS contracts should ensure that their flowing gas to storage gas withdrawal relationship is per their contractual agreements.


Storage customers should ensure that their storage balances are at the appropriate levels for the duration of this notice.


ISS withdrawals and PLS withdrawals will be unavailable.


Incremental Loans will not be available.


Imbalance makeup for gas due others (SSC off-system) will not be available.


Receipt and delivery point operators should ensure that flowing volumes match confirmed scheduled quantities. Intraday scheduling reductions will be implemented to ensure that nominations match actual flowing quantities. Operational flexibility will not be available during this time.


Additionally, Power Plant Operators must have nominated supply.


The following locations will have limited capacity as shown:

20,000 Dth/d Northern Natural Kiowa (Location ID 17096)

20,000 Dth/d NGPL Ford (Location ID 121515)

0 Dth/d ANR Alden (Location ID 35515)


Southern Star will issue underperformance notices to each point operator not delivering the scheduled quantities they had confirmed. Southern Star will unilaterally reduce scheduled quantities per the tariff to match actual flow if the delivering operator does not remedy the underperformance in accordance with the notice. 


If customers do not adhere to the request, or if actual weather or operating conditions require it, Southern Star could issue a system wide, point or shipper specific OFO on short notice.

These conditions are expected to remain in effect through 1/11/2025.  Southern Star will review and provide any changes or updates on the status of its system for the period of this posting. If you have any questions regarding this notice, please contact one of the Customer Service or Scheduling Representatives listed below.
