Pursuant to the prior agreements of

the parties following Columbia’s first

Columbia states that the instant filing

is being submitted pursuant to Article

Gas Costs, of the ‘‘Customer Settlement’’

in Docket No. GP94–02, et al., approved

by the Commission on June 15, 1995 (71

FERC 61,337 (1995)). The Customer

Settlement became effective on

November 28, 1995, when the

Bankruptcy Court’s November 1, 1995

order approving Columbia’s Plan of

Reorganization became final. Under the

terms of Article VII, Section C,

Columbia is entitled to recover amounts

for Accrued-But-Not-Paid Gas Costs. As

directed by Article VII, Section C, the

tariff sheets contained herein are being

filed in accordance with Section 39 of

the General Terms and Conditions of the

Tariff, to direct bill the Accrued-ButNot-Paid Gas Costs that have been paid

subsequent to November 28, 1995.

Columbia states that the instant filing

reflects Accrued-But-Not-Paid Gas Costs

in the amount of $9,636.40 plus

applicable FERC interest of $180.13.

This is Columbia’s seventh filing

pursuant to Article VII, Section C, and

Columbia reserves the right to make the

appropriate additional filings pursuant

to that provision. The allocation factors

on Appendix F of the Customer

Settlement were used as prescribed by

Article VII, Section C.

Columbia states that copies of its

filing have been mailed to all parties on

the Commission’s service list in Docket

No. RP96–140 and RP–140–002, and to

each of Columbia’s firm customers,

interruptible customers, and affected

state commissions. Columbia also agrees

to make available for this filing the data

that it was required to provide in its

June 13, 1996 compliance filing in

Docket No. RP96–140–002 pursuant to a

protective agreement.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

protest this filing should file a motion

to intervene or protest with the Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission, 888

First Street, NE, Washington, DC 20426,

in accordance with Sections 385.214

and 385.211 of the Commission’s Rules

and Regulations. All such motions or

protests must be filed as provided in

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

Columbia Gas Transmission

Corporation; Notice of Filing

December 2, 1997.

Take notice that on November 25,

1997, Columbia Gas Transmission

Corporation (Columbia) tendered for

filing Attachment A to the filing, which

details, by customer, the historical load

factors calculated using total firm

entitlements for the 12-month period

ended October 31, 1997.

Columbia states that this filing is

being submitted pursuant to the

Commission’s November 12, 1997 Order

in Docket Nos. RP97–149–002 and

RP97–391–000, in which the

Commission approved GRI’s 1998

funding formula continuing the 1997

funding formula with allocated RD&D

program costs to its members. Since the

approved charges for 1998 are the same

as the GRI charges approved for 1997,

no revision is required in Columbia’s

presently effective Sheet Nos. 25

through 28, but the charges to certain of

Columbia’s firm customers will change

based upon the revised historical load

factor calculations.

Columbia states that this filing is to

reflect Columbia’s changes to its firm

customers’ load factors reflected in the

calculations on Attachment A. As stated

above, any new customer added after

January 1, 1998 will be billed GRI each

month based on the actual throughput

for each prior month of service until a

12-month history is established.

Nevertheless, Columbia is filing

Attachment A to the filing so as to

insure that the load factors resulting

from the calculations are a matter of

public record.

Columbia states that copies of its

filing have been mailed to all parties on

the Commission’s service list in Docket

No. RP96–140 and RP96–140–002, and

to each of Columbia’s firm customers,

interruptible customers, and affected

state commissions. Columbia also agrees

to make available for this filing the data

that it was required to provide in its

June 13, 1996 compliance filing in

Docket No. RP96–140–002 pursuant to a

protective agreement.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

protest this filing should file a motion

to intervene or protest with the Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission, 888

First Street, NE, Washington, DC 20426,

in accordance with Sections 385.214
