GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(e) (i) All terms and conditions of all releases must be consistent
with the terms and conditions of the Releasing Shipper's
transportation service agreement and with this Tariff,
including the provisions on nominations and scheduling of
transportation and curtailment of service.
(ii) Bids are binding until written or electronic notice of
withdrawal is received by Transporter. Offers are binding
until written or electronic notice of withdrawal is received
by Transporter. Bids cannot be withdrawn after the bid period
ends. The releasing party has the right to withdraw its offer
during the bid period, where unanticipated circumstances
justify and no minimum bid has been made.
(iii) Transporter will post offers and bids, including prearranged
deals, upon receipt. A Releasing Shipper may request a later
posting time for posting of such offer, and Transporter will
support such request insofar as it comports with the standard
timeline set forth in Section 11.2(d) of the General Terms and
Conditions of this Tariff.
For a release involving a Prearranged Replacement Shipper
pursuant to (a) an Asset Management Arrangement ("AMA") (as
defined in 18 C.F.R. Section 284.8(h)(3)), or (b) a state-
regulated retail access program (as defined in 18 C.F.R.
Section 284.8(h)(4)), or (c) an agreement to release at the
maximum rate for a term longer than one year, or (d) a
release for any period of 31 days or less, the Prearranged
Replacement Shipper shall be awarded the released capacity
without the necessity of waiting for competing bids to be
submitted. However, a Releasing Shipper may not re-release
capacity covered by this section 11.5(e) to the same
Prearranged Replacement Shipper, without subjecting the
release to bidding, until twenty-eight (28) days after the
first release period has ended.
Transporter shall be notified of the release and the terms of
the release by the Releasing Shipper. Transporter shall post
a notice of the occurrence of the release on its EBB and/or
Designated Site. If Releasing Shipper has secured a
Prearranged Replacement Shipper pursuant to the implementation
of an AMA transaction, the release request must also contain
AMA Special Terms and Conditions which: 1) state that the
release is being made to implement an AMA; and 2) specifies
the quantity and term commitment of the Replacement Shipper's
delivery or purchase obligation to the Releasing Shipper in
sufficient detail to confirm compliance with
18 CFR 284.8(h)(3);
(iv) A Releasing Shipper may not specify an extension of the
original bid period or the pre-arranged deal match period,
without posting a new release.
