Black Marlin Pipeline Company; Notice

of Proposed Changes to FERC Gas

Tariff

July 2, 1998.

Take notice that on June 30, 1998,

Black Marlin Pipeline Company (Black

Marlin) tendered for filing to become

part of its FERC Gas Tariff, First Revised

Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets

to be effective August 1, 1998:

Ninth Revised Sheet No. 4

Second Revised Sheet No. 213F

Black Marlin states that it is making

this filing to (1) provide an increase in

rates for its transportation services and

(2) eliminate the interruptible revenue

sharing mechanism from its tariff.

Black Marlin states that the tariff

sheet filed herein reflects rates

necessary to recover annual operating

costs which Black Marlin expects to

incur in performing service under its

existing rate schedules, utilizing a Base

Period ended March 31, 1998 adjusted

for known and measurable changes

anticipated to occur during the ninemonth Test Period ending December 31,

1998.

The proposed rates are based on an

overall cost of service for Black Marlin’s

jurisdictional services of $3.2 million

(exclusive of the cost of service

associated with Black Marlin’s onshore

NGPA Section 311 facilities), as

compared to a cost of service of $3.1

million underlying the currently

effective rates. Absent the instant rate

case, Black Marlin would realize a

revenue deficiency of $1.8 million as

indicated by comparing the proposed

rates with the currently effective rates

applied to the Test Period volumes.

The major reasons for the proposed

rate increase are: (1) a decrease in

annual throughput from 31,101,046

MMBtu underlying the currently

effective rates to 19,331,916 MMBtu for

the Test Period because of declines in

the deliverability of the reserves to

which Black Marlin is connected; and

(2) the impact of approximately $4.4

million in capital expenditures required

to lower the portion of Black Marlin’s

line affected by a project of the U.S.

Army Corps of Engineers and the Port

of Houston Authority to widen and

deepen the Houston Ship Channel.

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, N.E., Washington, D.C.

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 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.
