15.8 QUALIFIED BIDS FOR RELEASED CAPACITY RIGHTS (Contd.)
A. (Contd.)
(6) Agreement that the Qualified Bidder is bound by the
terms and conditions of the Capacity award by
Transporter pursuant to this Section 15 to the
Qualified Bidder, including Transporter's standard
form of Agreement covering the Rate Schedule
applicable to the released Capacity and the terms and
conditions of the Qualified Bid and the Capacity
Release Request, in accordance with Transporter's
Tariff.
B. The volume in a Qualified Bid may not be less than the
minimum volume required for an Eligible Firm Transportation
Agreement under Transporter's Tariff. Neither the volume
nor the release term specified in a Qualified Bid may
exceed the maximum volume or term specified in a Capacity
Release Request, unless the Capacity Release Request
specifically allows otherwise. A Qualified Bidder must
accept all the terms and conditions of a Capacity Release
Request submitted under Section 15.4 (involving a
Prearranged Release) except for the level of the
reservation rate and the MDQ, unless the Capacity Release
Request specifically allows otherwise.
C. For releases for a term of more than one (1) year, a
Qualified Bidder may not bid rates which would exceed
Transporter's maximum reservation rate applicable to the
Eligible Firm Transportation Agreement Capacity. If the
Original Shipper is paying a Negotiated Rate pursuant to
Section 33 of these General Terms and Conditions, a
Qualified Bidder may not bid a rate which exceeds the
applicable Recourse Rate. The maximum Qualified Bid
reservation rate includes all demand surcharges, including
all direct-billed charges which are or may become
applicable to the Eligible Firm Transportation Agreement
Capacity.
D. There is no maximum rate limitation applicable to bids for
capacity release for a term of one (1) year or less, if the
release is to take effect on or before (1) year from the
date on which Transporter is notified of the release.
