Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line

Corporation; Notice of Proposed

Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

March 5, 1997.

Take notice that on February 28, 1997

Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line

Corporation (Transco) tendered for

filing certain revised tariff sheets to

Third Revised Volume No. 1 of its FERC

Gas Tariff enumerated in Appendix A

attached to the filing.

Transco states that the instant filing is

submitted pursuant to Section 38 of the

General Terms and Conditions of

Transco’s FERC Gas Tariff which

provides that Transco will file, to be

effective each April 1, a redetermination

of its fuel retention percentages

applicable to transportation and storage

rate schedules. The derivations of the

revised fuel retention percentages

included herein are based on Transco’s

estimate of gas required for operations

(GRO) for the forthcoming annual

period April 1997 through March 1998

plus the balance accumulated in the

Deferred GRO Account at January 31,

1997.

Transco states that an alternate tariff

sheet has also been tendered for filing

which reflects a change in the method

used to derive the fuel retention factor

applicable to Section 7(c) firm

transportation service provided by

Transco under Rate Schedule FT–NT.

The proposed method would effect the

sole remaining Rate Schedule FT–NT

shipper (New York Power Authority) in

that they would be assessed the system

transmission fuel retention percentage

in zone 6 rather than an incrementally

determined fuel percentage.

Included in Appendices B and B–1

attached to the filing are the workpapers

supporting the derivation of the revised

fuel retention factors.

Transco states that copies of the filing

have been served upon its affected

customers and interested State

relocate the Western Resources, Inc.

(WRI) Capron, Oklahoma and Kiowa,

Kansas town borders from the Pampa

respectively, and for the Capron town

border are 688 Dth and 85,834 Dth,

protest is filed and not withdrawn

within 30 days after the time allowed

for filing a protest, the instant request

shall be treated as an application for

authorization pursuant to Section 7 of
