GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
2.3 Conditions. Implementation of a negotiated rate
shall be subject to the following conditions:
(a) Southern Trails and Shipper have executed a
valid transportation service agreement to implement
negotiated rates.
(b) Shipper had access to service pursuant to
this FERC Gas Tariff at the rates set forth on the Statement
of Rates at the time of the execution of the transportation
service agreement implementing negotiated rates.
(c) Southern Trails has filed a tariff sheet
advising the Commission of such agreement. The numbered
tariff sheet will state the exact legal name of the Shipper,
the negotiated rate, other applicable charges, the receipt
and delivery points, the volume of gas to be transported and
the applicable rate schedule for service provided at a
negotiated rate. The tariff sheet will include a statement
affirming that the negotiated rate agreement does not
deviate in any material aspect from the applicable form of
service agreement or Southern Trails will file the agreement
pursuant to 154.112(b) of the Commission's Regulations.
2.4 Bidding for Firm Capacity. Southern Trails and
Shipper may negotiate and post for competitive bidding, a
rate that exceeds the applicable maximum reservation rate.
If competing bids under 6 of these General Terms and
Conditions reflect different rate forms, i.e., negotiated
rates vs. recourse rates, Southern Trails shall award the
capacity, or a portion thereof, using the evaluation
criteria of 6 of this tariff. The negotiated reservation
charge reflected in such evaluation criteria may not exceed
the maximum applicable recourse rate. Southern Trails will
calculate this value based only on the reservation charge or
similar guaranteed revenue stream.
2.5 Agreements Subject to the Right of First Refusal.
For purposes of 8 of these General Terms and Conditions,
the highest rate that a Shipper must match in order to
continue to receive service is the maximum rate set forth on
the Statement of Rates that is applicable to such service.
For purposes of evaluating bids under 6, the value of the
bid will be based only on the reservation charge or similar
guaranteed revenue stream.
