Third Revised Sheet No. 170

First Revised Sheet No. 171

East Tennessee states that the purpose of this filing is to provide for a non-discriminatory waiver of the tariff provision which requires reimbursement for shipper-requested expansion facilities based upon an economic evaluation of the impact of the new facilities. East Tennessee states that waiver of the facility cost reimbursement requirement will be evaluated on the basis of various economic criteria, including estimated throughput, cost of the facilities, operating and maintenance as well as administrative and general expenses attributable to the facilities, system net revenues estimated to be generated and the availability of capital funds. East Tennessee states that it is proposing this tariff change in response to customer requests and to assist East Tennessee in the remarketing of turnback capacity.

East Tennessee states that copies of its filing have been mailed to all affected customers and interested state commissions.

Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, in accordance with Sections 385.214 or 385.211 of the Commission's Rules and Regulations.
