Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line

Company; Notice of Proposed

Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

December 3, 1997.

Take notice that on December 1, 1997,

Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company

(Panhandle) tendered for filing as part of

its FERC Gas Tariff, First Revised

Volume No. 1, the tariff sheets listed on

Appendix A to the filing, to become

effective January 1, 1998.

Panhandle states that it has not

completed the recovery of the

Miscellaneous Stranded Costs as of

September 30, 1997 and accordingly

this filing implements a Miscellaneous

Stranded Cost Reservation Surcharge of

$0.01 per Dt. applicable to Rate

Schedules FT, EFT, and LFT, a

Miscellaneous Stranded Cost

Reservation Surcharge of 0.06¢ per Dt.

applicable to Rate Schedule SCT and a

Miscellaneous Stranded Cost

Volumetric Surcharge of 0.8¢ per Dt.

applicable to Rate Schedules IT and EIT

to be in effect during the twelve month

Section 18.14 Reconciliation Recovery

Period. Panhandle proposes a January 1,

1998 effective date.

Panhandle further states that the

derivation of the Miscellaneous

Stranded Cost Reservation Surcharge

applicable to Rate Schedules FT, EFT,

LFT and SCT results in a rate that is less

than $0.01 per Dt. and thus, would

result in a zero rate for the

Miscellaneous Stranded Cost

Reservation Surcharge and the

underrecovery of the remaining

Miscellaneous Stranded Costs.

Accordingly, Panhandle proposes to

implement a Miscellaneous Stranded

Cost Reservation Surcharge of $0.01 per

Dt. applicable to Rate Schedules FT,

EFT and LFT and a 0.06¢ Miscellaneous

Stranded Cost Reservation Surcharge

applicable to Rate Schedule SCT to

recover the remaining unrecovered

balance. As soon as practicable after the

amounts surcharged equal or exceed the

unrecovered balance, Panhandle will

suspend further application of the

surcharge, file a final reconciliation

report and provide invoice credits, with

applicable carrying charges for any

excess collections.

Panhandle states that copies of this

filing are being served on all affected

customers and applicable state

regulatory agencies.

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 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.

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 in the Public Reference

Room.

Acting Secretary.
