Columbia Gas Transmission

Corporation; Notice of Proposed

Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

January 23, 1997.

Take notice that on January 17, 1997,

Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation

(Columbia) tendered for filing as part of

its FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised

Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets

set forth on Appendix A to the filing, to

become effective on February 1, 1997.

On December 31, 1996, Columbia

filed with the Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission (Commission) to move

pursuant to Section 4(e) of the Natural

Gas Act to place into effect on February

1, 1997, the rates set forth in its

November 22, 1996 Offer of Settlement

in this proceeding, contingent upon

approval and implementation of the

Settlement. The Settlement rates were

set forth in Appendix A of the December

31, 1996 motion rate filing. It has come

to Columbia’s attention that the

minimum commodity rate applicable to

both firm and interruptible gathering

services shown on First Revised Ninth

Revised Sheet No. 30 in the motion rate

filing is incorrect due strictly to an

advertent clerical error. Columbia is

submitting the instant filing to correct

this error. Columbia is also reflecting on

this sheet the processing charges that

result from the Settlement effective as of

February 1, 1997.

Certain other rate tariff sheets are

being refiled to indicate in a footnote

that a customer’s acceptance and

payment of invoices based on the

Settlement rates shall constitute such

customer’s agreement to pay the

surcharge (subject to refund) if the

Settlement is not approved and

implemented. This language was

indicated in the transmittal letter to the

Initial Settlement motion filing of

December 31, 1996, but inadvertently

omitted from the tariff sheets.

Columbia states that copies of its

filing have been mailed to Columbia’s

customers and all affected state

commissions, as well as to all parties on

the official service list to this

proceeding.

Any person desiring to protest this

filing should file a protest with the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,

888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC

20426, in accordance with Section

385.211 of the Commission’s Rules and

Regulations. All such protests must be

filed on or before January 27, 1997.

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.

Eastern Shore Natural Gas Company

(Eastern Shore) tendered for filing a

completely new and revised FERC Gas

Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1,

reflecting restructured services, rates,

and general terms and conditions,

proposed to become effective on May 1,

1997 or the effective date of Eastern

Shore’s Part 284 blanket certificate,

whichever is later.

Eastern Shore states that pursuant to

Section 4 of the Natural Gas Act, and

Sections 154.7, 154.301, et seq. of the

Regulations of the Commission, Eastern

Shore is also filing revisions to certain

statements and schedules which were

initially filed in Docket No. RP97–32–

000, Eastern Shore’s Section 4 general

rate increase filing, in which it filed as

a closed merchant pipeline. Such

statements and schedules have been

revised to reflect Eastern Shore’s

proposed status as an open access

transportation pipeline.

Eastern Shore states that it requests

that the Commission permit the rates

and charges proposed for all of the

jurisdictional services to be provided by

Eastern Shore to become effective as

conditional rates and charges that may

be subject to subsequent adjustment by

Commission order after the rates and

charges proposed in the instant filing

are permitted to become effective.

Eastern Shore further requests that the

Commission, in its order on the instant

filing, expressly give notice that the

conditional rates and charges which are

permitted to become effective may be

subsequently adjusted by Commission

order retroactive to the date on which

such rates and charges are permitted to

become effective.

Eastern Shore states that the purpose

of this conditional rate determination is

to give notice to all that the provisional

rates and charges may be subject to

retroactive adjustment at a later date.

Eastern Shore states that copies of the

filing have been served upon the parties

listed on the Commission’s official

service list in Docket Nos. RP97–32–000

and CP96–128–000.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

protest said filing should file a motion

to intervene or protest with the Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission, 888

20426, in accordance with Rule 211 and

Rule 214 of the Commission’s Rules of

Practices and Procedure (18 CFR

Section 385.211 and Section 385.214).

All such motions or protests must be

filed on or about February 7, 1997.

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. Any person wishing to

become a party must file a motion to

intervene. Copies of this filing are on

file with the Commission and are

available for public inspection.
