16. PREGRANTED ABANDONMENT AND RIGHT-OF-FIRST-REFUSAL
16.1 Pregranted Abandonment:
Unless otherwise provided in Shipper's Service
Agreement, Paiute shall be entitled to make use of
pregranted abandonment under Section 7(b) of the
Natural Gas Act for long-term (twelve [12] months or
more) firm transportation services, as authorized by
Section 284.221(d) of the Commission's Regulations,
upon the expiration of the contractual term or upon
termination of each individual transportation
arrangement, and shall seek bids from competing
Shippers interested in acquiring such firm
transportation service, as provided below.
16.2 Right-of-First-Refusal:
A Shipper may avoid pregranted abandonment of
service due to the expiration of a Firm Service
Agreement which provides for a primary term of
twelve (12) months or more and which (1) was
executed on or after March 27, 2000 and provides
for service at the applicable maximum rate, or (2)
was in effect on March 27, 2000. Such Shipper may
continue receiving the contracted service by
matching competing bid(s) in accordance with the
procedures described below; provided, however, that
in no event will the Shipper be required to match a
bid that exceeds the applicable maximum rate for
such service.
16.2 Notice of Desire to Extend Service:
To avail itself of its right-of-first-refusal, a
long-term Shipper must give Paiute notice of its
desire to extend such service not later than (1) the
date of the contract termination notice period
provided for in the Shipper's Service Agreement, or
(2) twelve (12) months prior to the expiration of the
term of the Service Agreement, whichever occurs
first. Such notice must specify the term of the
desired extension and the rate that the long-term
Shipper is willing to pay during such term.
