Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 46 / Thursday, March 9, 1995 / Notices 12943

These methodologies are (1) Transco’s

IT-feeder rate design; (2) a systemwide

cost of service; (3) interruptible

transportation (IT) rates designed on a

100 percent load factor basis; (4)

Transco’s so-called volumetric costs

being recovered on the basis of the same

charge being applied to each dekatherm

of throughput (rather than on a distancesensitive basis); and (5) a single

separately-stated gathering charge

applicable to all non-Tilden gathering

facilities and a different gathering

charge applicable to sue of the Tilden

facilities.

Transco states that changes reflected

in the instant filing compared to the prefiled methods in place on the Transco

system are principally: (1) elimination

of the Non-Gas Demand Charge under

Rate Schedule FS; (2)

refunctionalization of certain jointly

owned transmission facilities to the

gathering function pursuant to

Commission orders issued since

Transco’s last rate case filing; (3)

elimination of the IT revenue crediting

mechanism based upon Transco’s

allocation of almost $87 million to

interruptible transportation and

gathering services which reflects the

trend of Transco’s operating experience

under Order No. 636; (4) elimination of

a reverse South Georgia adjustment due

to the fact that as of September 1995

Transco will have flowed back to

ratepayers the entirety of its formerlyoverfunded deferred taxes; (5)

elimination of revenue credits to cost of

service for the transportation of

liquefiables (because such transactions

are herein reflected as part of the

projection of IT throughput); (6) reduced

FASB No. 106 expense resulting, in

part, from flowback of a regulatory

liability created during the Docket No.

RP92–137 rate period; and (7)

miscellaneous tariff revisions as

described in the Statement of Nature,

Reasons, and Basis.

Finally, the instant filing proposes on

a prospective only basis the following

changes to the pre-filed methods: (1) a

new Rate Schedule ICTS (Interconnect

Transfer Service) that provides shorthaul transfer service between pipeline

interconnects or third-party facilities

connected to TGPL; (2) a new Rate

Schedule GMS (Gas Management

Service) that provides for the borrowing

or parking of gas at designated pooling

points; and (3) elimination of the ‘‘atrisk’’ certificate condition governing

Transco’s Mobile Bay facilities. These

changes are proposed to be effective

prospectively only after Commission

approval.

Transco also has included in

Statement Q a pro forma tariff sheet

reflecting market-based IT rates for nonIT-feeder transactions. If the

Commission, in response to

interventions in this docket, sets the

issue of Transco’s IT rate design for

hearing in this docket, the pro forma

tariff sheet gives notice of Transco’s

position on IT rate design, i.e., that rates

for non-IT-feeder IT service should be

marked-based.

Transco states that copies of the filing

have been served upon Transco’s

customers and interested State

Commissions.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

protest said filing should file a motion

to intervene or protest with the Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission, 825

North Capitol 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 should be

filed on or before March 10, 1995.

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 proceeding. 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

Under the terms of the Settlement

Transwestern agreed to a four-year

phase-in period to reach a Field Area

unbundling resulting from the net

allocation to FAS of $84 million of gross

plant. As part of the four-year phase-in

mechanism under which the costs

allocated to FAS are increased, there is

a corresponding phase-in under which

costs allocated to Transwestern’s FTS–

1 service from East of Thoreau to

California are decreased.

Transwestern states that the purpose

of the instant filing is to file tariff sheets

in compliance with the terms of the

Settlement.

Transwestern also states that copies of

the filing were served on its gas utility

customers, interested state

commissions, and all parties to this

proceeding.

Any person desiring to protest said

filing should file a protest with the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,

determining the appropriate action to be

taken, but will not serve to make

protestants parties to the proceeding.

Copies of this filing are on file with the
