Paiute Pipeline Company; Notice of

Proposed Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

July 25, 1997.

Take notice that on July 22, 1997,

Paiute Pipeline Company (Paiute)

tendered for filing to become part of its

FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised

Volume No. 1–A, Sixth Revised Sheet

No. 10. Paiute requests that the tendered

tariff sheet be accepted for filing to

become effective August 1, 1997.

Paiute states that the purpose of its

filing is to place into effect an interim

annual rate reduction of $3,423,656

while the Commission considers a

settlement offer filed by Paiute on July

1, 1997 in this general rate proceeding.

Paiute indicates that as a result of its

original rate change filing in this

proceeding, Paiute is presently

collecting motion rates, subject to

refund, pending the outcome of a

hearing. Paiute states, however, that its

settlement offer would resolve all issues

in this proceeding, and that it believes

that the settlement offer is uncontested.

Paiute proposes in the instant filing to

reduce its rates to the settlement rate

levels, on an interim basis, pending the

Commission’s decision on the

settlement offer.

In the event that the settlement offer

is not approved or made effective

pursuant to its terms, Paiute requests

the right to terminate the interim rate

reduction on thirty days’ notice and

resume collection of its motion rates

during the pendency of this proceeding.

Paiute states that it will not seek

permission to recover from its

customers the difference between the

motion rats and the interim reduced

rates for the period that the interim

reduced rates are in effect.

Any person desiring to protest this

filing should file a protest with the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,

888 First Street N.E., Washington, D.C.

20426, in accordance with Section

385.211 of the Commission’s Rules and

Regulations. All such 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

appropriate action to be taken, but will

not serve to make protestants parties to

the proceeding. Copies of this filing are

on file with the Commission and are

available for public inspection in the

Public Reference Room.
