GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
6. CAPACITY RELEASE BY FIRM SHIPPERS (Continued)
6.5 Capacity Release Requirements.
(a) All terms and conditions relating to a release which is the
subject of a Capacity Release Request: (i) must be nondiscriminatory and
applicable to all potential bidders; (ii) must be made available to
TransColorado for posting; (iii) must relate solely to the details of
acquiring or maintaining the transportation capacity rights on TransColorado,
which are the subject of the release; and (iv) must not place any obligations
or burdens on TransColorado in addition to the terms and conditions applicable
to a capacity release under this Section 6 which are specified in
TransColorado's Tariff. Any bid evaluation procedure elected by a Releasing
Shipper different from TransColorado's bid evaluation procedure set forth in
Sections 6.10(b) through 6.10(d) must be objective, nondiscriminatory in all
circumstances and contain a complete description of the bid evaluation
procedure for posting on TransColorado's Interactive Website. TransColorado
may require the Releasing Shipper to submit a working computer program to
TransColorado in diskette form which is compatible with TransColorado's
Interactive Website which will enable TransColorado to make such alternative
bid evaluation entirely through TransColorado's Interactive Website, prior to
the time any alternative bid evaluation procedure is requested, if such bid
evaluation procedure is not based on (i) highest rate; (ii) net revenue; or
(iii) present value as determined in Sections 6.10(b)(i) through 6.10(b)(iv)
(collectively referred to as "Acceptable Alternative Bid Evaluation
Procedure") and the remaining procedures set forth in Sections 6.10(c) and
6.10(d). If the Releasing Shipper elects a bid evaluation procedure that
differs from TransColorado's bid evaluation procedure or the Acceptable
Alternative Bid Evaluation Procedure and the remaining procedures set forth in
Sections 6.10(c) and 6.10(d), TransColorado shall not be held to the
subsequent deadlines set forth in this Section 6, but TransColorado shall make
a reasonable attempt to adhere to such deadlines. TransColorado shall publish
standards relating to such computer diskettes, but it is the responsibility of
the Releasing Shipper to develop and provide the working computer diskette.
The Releasing Shipper shall warrant that the computer diskette conforms to the
bid evaluation procedure in the Capacity Release Request.
(b) The term of any release of capacity sought under this
Section 6 shall be at least one full day and shall not exceed the remaining
term of the Eligible Firm Transportation Agreement.
(c) The quantity sought to be released under a Capacity Release
Request shall not be less than the minimum quantity required for the Eligible
Firm Transportation Agreement under TransColorado's Tariff.
