Is participation for integrated operations in the agreement “portable” – i.e., can other sign onto an existing participants agreement?
Under the terms of the agreement, for integrated operations both the operation’s producer and integrated entity would ideally sign the operation’s agreement for participation. Unless clarified by EPA during the comment period, the agreement terms do not currently allow for “portability” – i.e., if a participating operation’s producer decides to change contract integrators, the new integrator would not be allowed to sign onto the agreement for participation. It is legally unclear what effect this constraint has on the producer’s continued participation in or protections from the agreement.
