Columbia Gulf Transmission Company; Notice of Proposed Change in 
Gas Tariff

June 14, 2000.
    Take notice that on June 8, 2001, Columbia Gulf Transmission 
Company (Columbia Gulf) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, the following revised tariff 
sheets, bearing a proposed effective date of July 9, 2001:

Sixth Revised sheets No. 125
First Revised Sheet No. 287
Original Sheet No. 288

    Columbia Gulf states that the instant filing is being made to 
comply with the Order on Remand in docket No. CP95-218-002 (Remand 
Order) issued by the Commission on December 14, 2000. The ``Remand 
Order'' revised the commission's previous policy requiring pipelines to 
seek case-by-case approval before acquiring offsystem capacity and 
permitting new acquisitions of offsystem capacity by pipelines to be 
made without pre-approval. In its order denying clarification and 
rehearing issued April 12, 2001, in Docket No. CP95-218-004, the 
Commission clarified that pipelines intending to transport gas for 
others on acquired offsystem capacity must receive a waiver of the 
``shipper must have title'' policy prior to commencing the service. The 
Commission stated that a pipeline need not seek such waiver on a case-
by-case basis; rather it may make a single filing to amend its tariff 
to include a general statement that it will only transport for other 
using offsystem capacity pursuant to its existing tariff and rates and 
to request a generic waiver of the ``shipper must have title'' policy. 
The purpose of the instant filing is to include general statement in 
Columbia Gulf's tariff and to request such waiver.
    Columbia Gulf states further that copies of this filing have been 
mailed to all of its customers and affected state regulatory 
commissions.
