that the criteria for an acceptable bid will continue to apply when 
capacity becomes available on a first-come, first-served basis and (2) 
allow firm shippers under defined conditions an opportunity to bid on 
posted available capacity and be awarded such capacity, when the bid is 
for a shorter path than the posted path, at the Maximum Rate, on a 
first-come, first-served basis, for a term not to exceed 31 days.
    Northern Border states that copies of this filing have been sent to 
all of Northern Border's contracted shippers and interested state 
regulatory commissions.

and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed in
