You're most lkely SOL with nom-removable panniers. I don't
know of any bus transit that allows panniers to be left
on the bicycle.

Sacramento Regional Transit makes no specific mention of removing
panniers but does mention "bags".

"Remove water bottles, bags, pumps and other loose items
that could fall off while the bus is in motion."

Santa Cruz METRO adds a few more items:

"Before the bus arrives, get your bike ready by removing
any oversized equipment, or loose items not permanently
attached, that might impair the Operator’s vision or
fall off the bike."
I guess(tm) that panniers might be considered "oversized equipment".
