Discovery Gas Transmission LLC;

Notice of Proposed Changes in FERC

Gas Tariff

May 5, 1998.

Take notice that on April 30, 1998,

Discovery Gas Transmission LLC

(Discovery) tendered for filing as part of

its FERC Gas Tariff, Original Volume

No. 1, the following tariff sheets, to

become effective June 1, 1998:

First Revised Sheet No. 41

First Revised Sheet No. 42

First Revised Sheet No. 43

Discovery states that the revised tariff

sheets eliminate the current requirement

that a producer must have committed

production to Discovery prior to January

1, 1997, in order to qualify for service

under Discovery’s FT–2 Rate Schedule.

Discovery proposes to make FT–2

service available to any potential

shipper that commits production to

Discovery, to the extent that firm

capacity is available in the pipeline

system. Shippers that enter into FT–2

Service Agreements with Discovery

must provide a good faith estimate of

their production and provide

documentation to support the

production within eighteen (18) months

after committing the production.

Discovery’s proposal is in response to

requests from potential shippers that

wish to receive FT–2 service.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

protest this filing should file a motion

to intervene or a protest with the

Eastern Shore Natural Gas Company;

Notice of Filing

May 5, 1998.

Take notice that on May 1, 1998

Eastern Shore Natural Gas Company

(Eastern Shore) tendered a filing to

terminate its Account No. 191—

Unrecovered Purchased Gas Costs as of

October 31, 1997, and to refund the

balance in such account to its

customers. Eastern Shore states that

such termination is the result of Eastern

Shore’s conversion to a Part 284 open

access transportation pipeline and the

implementation of its new open access

FERC Gas Tariff on November 1, 1997,

(see 81 FERC ¶ 61,013).

Eastern Shore states that Section 38—

Transition Cost Recovery Mechanism, of

the General Terms and Conditions

(GT&C) of its FERC Gas Tariff, Second

Revised Volume No. 1, effective

November 1, 1997, provides for the

recovery of costs incurred as a result of

implementing, in connection with

implementing, or attributable to the

requirements of the Commission’s Order

No. 636, such costs being referred to as

‘‘transition costs’’. The Commission

identified four specific types of

transition costs: (1) Account No. 191

costs; (2) Gas Supply Realignment Costs;

(3) Stranded Costs; and (4) certain new

facilities. This filing, however, pertains

only to the first category described

above, Account No. 191 costs.

Eastern Shore further states that

Section 38(A) of the GT&C permits

Eastern Shore to direct bill a customer,

in the case of a positive (debit) Account

No. 191 balance, or refund a customer,

in the case of a negative (credit)

Account No. 191 balance, that

customer’s share of the total

unrecovered costs contained in Eastern

Shore’s Account No. 191. The portion of

unrecovered costs that relate to demand

shall be allocated on the basis of each

particular customer’s contract demand

quantity under Eastern Shore’s former

CD–1 or CD–E rate schedule in effect on

October 31, 1997, the day prior to the

implementation of open access on

Eastern Shore’s system. The portion of

unrecovered costs that relate to

commodity shall be allocated on the

basis of each particular customer’s

commodity purchases under Eastern

Shore’s former CD–1 or CD–E rate

schedules for the period November 1,

1996 through October 31, 1997, the

twelve months immediately preceding

the implementation of open access on

Eastern Shore’s system.

Finally, Eastern Shore states that it is

its intention to distribute refunds on

July 1, 1998, and in anticipation of this

date, has calculated the appropriate

carrying charges through such date.

Such refund date is intended to provide

the Commission staff with sufficient

time to review the information

submitted in its filing.

Eastern Shore states that copies of the

filing have been served upon its affected

customers and interested state

commissions.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

protest this filing should file a motion

to intervene or a 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 on or before May 12, 1998.

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 proceedings. 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.
