East Tennessee Natural Gas Company;

Notice of Proposed Changes in FERC

Gas Tariff

April 14, 2000.

Take notice that on April 12, 2000,

East Tennessee Natural Gas Company

(East Tennessee) tendered for filing as

part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Second

Revised Volume No. 1, the tariff sheets

listed in Appendix A to the filing, to be

effective May 1, 2000:

East Tennessee states that, on March

14, 2000, East Tennessee was acquired

from El Paso Energy (El Paso) and

became a wholly owned subsidiary of

Duke Energy Corporation (Duke). East

Tennessee states that, pursuant to the

Stock Purchase Agreement, El Paso

entered into a Transition Agreement to

ensure the smooth operation of the East

Tennessee pipeline system for a period

of up to nine months from the closing

date (transition period). Among other

things, the Transition Agreement

requires El Paso to perform certain

capacity management activities on

behalf of East Tennessee for the daily

operations of the system during the

transition period.

East Tennessee states that, as part of

El Paso’s transition to interactive

Internet communications in compliance

with the Commission’s Order No. 587-

I, El Paso has undertaken a major

rewrite of its pipelines’ critical

computer system functions (the

‘‘PASSKEY’’ system). El Paso has

advised Duke that it intends to complete

the move to the Internet by May 1, 2000.

East Tennessee states that, because El

Paso will be performing certain capacity

management activities for East

Tennessee utilizing the PASSKEY

System during the transition period,

East Tennessee is modifying its existing

tariff and pro forma service agreements

to reflect the system and tariff changes

made by the El Paso pipelines.

East Tennessee states that the purpose

of this filing is to obtain Commission

approval for the tariff modifications in

East Tennessee’s tariff mirroring the El

Paso pipelines’ proposals in order to

implement the PASSKEY System

rewrite and the Service Upgrades by

May 1, 2000 for the duration of the

transition period and to update East

Tennessee’s mailing addresses and

contact information as a result of the

acquisition by Duke. At the end of the

transition period, East Tennessee will

file revised tariff sheets to reflect the

end of the transition period and the

implementation of the LINKr System for

East Tennessee, and will make any

additional changes necessary to conform

the operations of the East Tennessee

pipeline system with those of the other

Duke pipelines.

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, NE, Washington, DC

20426, in accordance with sections

385.214 or 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 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. This filing may be viewed on the
