approved in the Commission’s 1998

Gas Transmission Sys., et al., 84 FERC

¶ 61,002, reh’g granted in part, 85 FERC

¶ 61,329 (1998).

rates are attributable to: (a) a change in

the required rate of return and related

taxes; (b) a reduction in the depreciation

rate to be applied to transmission plant;

(c) changes in operation and

maintenance expenses and the inclusion

of income taxes not reflected in the

currently effective rates; (d) revised

system rate design quantities; and (e) a

reduction in the percentage governing

fuel retention to reflect decreased fuel

requirements.
