Re: Midcontinent Express Pipeline LLC Negotiated Rate Agreement Filing Docket No. RP24-Negotiated Rate Agreement • August 27th, 2024
Contract Type FiledAugust 27th, 2024This filing is submitted pursuant to the Commission’s Negotiated Rate Policy Statement issued January 31, 1996 in Docket No. RM95-6-000 (“Policy Statement”).1 In the Policy Statement, the Commission announced that it would allow companies to implement negotiated rate programs. Section 30 of the General Terms and Conditions of MEP’s Tariff allows MEP to implement negotiated rates and provides that MEP will file with the Commission a tariff record advising the Commission of the specifics of the negotiated rate or, alternatively, MEP may file the contract setting out the negotiated rate. As a part of this filing, MEP is submitting a tariff record containing the amended negotiated rate exhibits, which details the specifics of the negotiated rates. The agreement with Mercuria does not deviate in any material respect from the form of service agreement in MEP’s Tariff. The agreement with Trafigura contains an unchanged non-conforming provision previously accepted by the Commission.2
