21.6 Awarding of Released Capacity:
(a) All capacity available for release shall be allocated
based upon one of the following methods, as determined
by Shipper.
(1) Highest Present Value: Capacity shall be
allocated based upon the highest present value of
the rate per unit bid, in accordance with the
following formula:
-N
(R per unit) x 1 - (1 + i) = present value per unit
i
Where: i = interest rate per month
using the current
Commission interest rate as
defined in 18 C.F.R. Section
154.67(c)(2)(ii)(A),
N = term of the agreement in
months, and
R = the rate bid on a monthly
basis (the reservation fee, if
a two-part rate, and the
commodity rate, if a one-
part rate).
In the event that bids of equal value exceed available
capacity, the capacity shall be allocated by means of any
non-discriminatory objective standard designated by the
Releasing Shipper and included in its terms and
conditions for the release. If Releasing Shipper makes
no such designation, then the capacity shall be allocated
by means of a lottery, with all capacity being allocated
to the winner(s). The lottery will be conducted by
PGPL on a non-discriminatory basis and on one
business day's notice to the affected parties, who will
have the right to attend.
