    Northern is submitting the attached tariff sheets to implement an 
optional volumetric firm throughput service under new Rate Schedule 
VFT. This service will be available to new customers and as a 
conversion option for Northern's current firm customers under Rate 
Schedules TF and TFX. The rate for VFT service will be a one-part 
volumetric rate derived from Northern's current firm rates. For current 
Northern firm customers, VFT service permits a customer to convert all 
of its long-term (i.e., one year or more) firm transportation 
entitlement to a one-part, volumetric rate based on the customer's 
historical load factor. VFT service is also available to new customers 
desiring long-term capacity on Northern's system and would be based on 
the customer's projected load factor.
    Northern states that copies of the filing were served upon 
Northern's customers and interested State Commissions.

and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed in 
accordance with Section 154.210 of the Commission's Regulations. 
Protests will be considered by the Commission in determining the
