GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
15. CAPACITY RELEASE BY FIRM SHIPPERS (Contd.)
15.9 AWARDING OF RELEASED CAPACITY (Contd.)
D. A Capacity release shall become effective upon the awarding
of Capacity consistent with this Section 15. Nominations
for Gas service utilizing the released Capacity shall be
accepted at the next available Nomination opportunity which
occurs on or after the time the release becomes effective
hereunder, consistent with 18 C.F.R. Section
284.12(c)(1)(ii); provided that Nominations cannot be
effectuated prior to the beginning time specified in the
release. Transporter shall issue a contract to the winning
Qualified Bidder within one (1) hour after the Capacity has
been awarded. So long as the winning bidder has pre-
approved credit, that bidder can submit a Nomination
consistent with the above regardless of whether a contract
with Transporter covering the Capacity awarded has been
issued or executed; provided, however, that a contract must
be executed under the provisions of the relevant rate
schedule regarding timely execution of a contract tendered
by Transporter in order for a Shipper to have continued
service beyond the maximum time specified for timely
contract execution. If the original Shipper has already
submitted a Nomination on a Day under the Agreement being
released, and if the Replacement Agreement covering the
released Capacity is effective that same Day, the original
Shipper may incur Overrun Service Charges if his Nomination
exceeds the reduced contractual parameters under the
original Agreement resulting from the release (i.e., if the
original Shipper fails to reduce its Nomination, or does not
adequately reduce its Nomination, at the first opportunity
the Replacement Shipper has to nominate).
E. Gas Nominations for transportation pursuant to released
Capacity are subject to the provisions of Section 7 of these
General Terms and Conditions. Gas Nominations by a Shipper
utilizing released Capacity awarded by Transporter shall
constitute Shipper's binding acceptance of the terms and
conditions of the Capacity award by Transporter pursuant to
this Section 15, 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.
