Transport
October 22, 1998
Unless a discounted rate has been bid by Shipper and accepted by PSCo, all Authorized Overrun, Secondary Firm and Interruptible gas nominated through the Front Range Pipeline will be charged the surcharge posted on the EBB. This notice will be posted four Business Days prior to the beginning of the month for which the rate will be effective.
Shippers may bid for discounted Authorized Overrun (TF-FRP service in conjunction with a Primary Firm commitment), Secondary Firm (TF-FRP service where no Primary Firm commitment exists), or Interruptible (TI-FRP service) service. The Capacity charge for Primary Firm TF-FRP service is not discountable.
Any bid for discounted transportation must be submitted by the Shipper by no later than noon, five business days prior to the beginning of the month. PSCo will either accept or deny the bid by the next business day following its receipt. Any other requests for discounted service will be evaluated on a case by case basis.
Bids for discounted transportation must be submitted using the form provided by PSCo, and signed by an authorized representative.
Shippers submitting a bid for discounted transportation may specify a load factor for which they are willing to commit, which, if accepted, will establish the floor upon which charges will be based.
Bids will be evaluated based on the value of the rate and minimum load factor offered.
Service may commence under a new contract during a month, provided sufficient capacity exists and the service does not "bump" flowing gas. However, Capacity Charges for Primary Firm service will be billed on a full-month basis.
A Posting will be placed on the EBB Stating:
Parties wishing to submit a bid for discounted transportation on the Front Range Pipeline must submit a bid to their Transportation Representative by no later than noon, 5 business days prior to the beginning of the month.
