18. CAPACITY RELEASE PROGRAM (Cont'd)
18.4 Bidding For Assignments
(a) Any party on Riverside's approved bidder list may bid to
accept assignment of the Service Agreement under the
conditions posted in conjunction with a Release Notice.
To qualify for the approved bidder list, a party must:
(1) satisfy the eligibility criteria set forth in
Section 11, including the credit standards set forth in
Section 11.4, except for the prepayment provision of
11.1(a); (2) execute the Capacity Release Master Agreement
in the form contained in Riverside's tariff; and (3) agree
to be contractually bound by its bid if accepted by
Riverside.
(b) No bids will be accepted for Service Agreements where the
Releasing Shipper notifies Riverside in its Release Notice
that it has arranged for the assignment of its Service
Agreement to a Designated Replacement Shipper which has
agreed to pay the applicable maximum rate for the service
and which has agreed to all other conditions applicable to
the assignment, or for assignments made to a Designated
Replacement Shipper which has agreed to a term for the
assignment of 31 days or less. Bids to accept assignment
of the Service Agreement must specifically identify any
contingencies and may be made through the EBB System, once
operational. Until the EBB is operational, bids shall be
made by facsimile or hand delivery.
(c) A party may submit only one bid at a time in response to a
Release Notice. Once a party has submitted a bid, it may
withdraw the bid at any time prior to the close of the
posting period specified in Section 18.3(c) without
prejudice to its submitting another bid with an economic
value equal to or greater than the economic value of the
withdrawn bid. Bids to accept assignment will be posted
openly on the EBB System (once operational) with any
contingencies identified and with the bidder's identity
deleted.
