Northwest Pipeline Corp.; Notice of

Proposed Change in FERC Gas Tariff

March 3, 1995.

Take notice that on March 1, 1995,

Northwest Pipeline Corporation

(Northwest), tendered for filing as part

of its FERC Gas Tariff the following

tariff sheets with a proposed effective

date of April 1, 1995:

Third Revised Volume No. 1

Fourth Revised Sheet No. 14

Third Revised Sheet No. 231

Original Sheet No. 231–A

Alternate Fourth Revised Sheet No. 14

Alternate Third Revised Sheet No. 231

Alternate Original Sheet No. 231–A

Original Volume No. 2

Fourteenth Revised Sheet No. 2.1

Alternate Fourteenth Revised Sheet No. 2.1

Northwest states that the purpose of

this filing is to change fuel use

requirements factors (Factors) for Rate

Schedules TF–1, TF–2, TI–1, T–1

contained in Third Revised Volume No.

1 and for transportation service rate

schedules contained in Original Volume

No. 2 of Northwest’s FERC Gas Tariff.

Factors are determined each year to

become effective April 1 pursuant to

Section 14.12 of the General Terms and

Conditions contained in Northwest’s

FERC Gas Tariff, Third Revised Volume

No. 1, and pursuant to Section 5 of

Sheet No. 2.1 in Northwest’s FERC Gas

Tariff, Original Volume No. 2.

Northwest states that it concurrently

submitted another filing on March 1,

1995 with tariff sheets proposing new

Factors to become effective April 1,

1995 for Northwest’s transportation and

storage rate schedules. Northwest states

that the preferred and alternate

proposals in the instant filing revise the

methodology for calculating the Factors.

Under the preferred methodology,

Northwest states that it would eliminate

its past unrecovered volumetric

investment in lost and unaccounted-for

gas through a one-time catch-up

adjustment to be amortized over a threeyear period. Northwest would also

propose to remain current prospectively

in recovering such gas by projecting lost

and unaccounted-for gas expected for

each year the tariff provisions will be in

effect, as compared to the current

method of recovering such gas after the

fact on a lag basis. Northwest states that

the projection methodology would serve

to improve the accuracy of the Factors,

and customers would be protected from

the consequences of any errors in the

projections by the proposed true-up

procedure. An alternative to the

preferred methodology, which

establishes carrying charges to be

computed on a volumetric basis and

calculated on Northwest’s investment in

gas purchases to fund lost and

unaccounted-for gas, is also proposed by

Northwest.

Northwest states that a copy of this

filing has been served upon Northwest’s

jurisdictional customers and upon

relevant state regulatory commissions.

Any person desiring to be heard or

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 of Practice and

Procedure. 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

available for public inspection in the

Public Reference Room.
