Columbia states that the instant filing

is being submitted pursuant to Article

Gas Costs, of the ‘‘Customer Settlement’’

in Docket No. GP94–02, et al., approved

by the Commission on June 15, 1995 (71

FERC ¶ 61,337 (1955)). The Customer

Settlement became effective on

November 28, 1995, when the

Bankruptcy Court’s November 1, 1995,

order approving Columbia’s Plan of

Reorganization became final. Under the

terms of Article VII, Section C,

Columbia is entitled to recover amounts

for Accrued-But-Not-Paid Gas Costs. As

directed by Article VII, Section C, the

tariff sheets contained herein are being

filed in accordance with Section 39 of

the General Terms and Conditions of the

Tariff, to direct bill the Accrued-ButNot-Paid Gas Costs that have been paid

subsequent to November 28, 1995. The

instant filing reflects Accrued-But-NotPaid Gas Costs in the amount of

$1,388,133.11 plus applicable FERC

interest of $16,383.33. This is

Columbia’s second filing pursuant to

Article VII, Section C, and Columbia

reserves the right to make the

appropriate additional filings pursuant

to that provision. The allocation factors

on Appendix F of the Customer

Settlement were used as prescribed by

Article VII, Section C.

Columbia also agrees to make

available for this filing the data that it

was required to provide in its April 11,

1996 compliance filing in Docket No.

RP96–140 pursuant to a protective

agreement.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

protest this filing should file a motion

to intervene or protest with the Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission, 888

First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C.

All such motions or protests must be

filed as provided in Section 154.210 of

the Commission’s Regulations. Protests

Eastern Shore Natural Gas Company;

Notice of Proposed Changes in FERC

Gas Tariff

May 6, 1996.

Take notice that on May 1, 1996

Eastern Shore Natural Gas Company

(ESNG) tendered for filing as part of its

FERC Gas Tariff, First Revised Volume

No. 1, certain substitute revised tariff

sheets in the above captioned docket,

with a proposed effective date of

February 1, 1996.

ESNG states that the revised tariff

sheets included herein are being filed

pursuant to Section 24 of the General

Terms and Conditions of the ESNG’s

Gas Tariff to reflect changes in ESNG’s

jurisdictional storage rates. ESNG states

that the instant filing is being made to

‘‘track’’ changes in Columbia Gas

Transmission Corporation’s (Columbia)

storage service rates. Upon the recent

close of ESNG’s February, 1996 monthly

accounting cycle it became apparent

that ESNG had inadvertently failed to

track the proper storage service rates

from Columbia for February, 1996. The

substitute tariff sheets included herein

are being filed to correct this error.

As background to the instant filing, on

August 1, 1995 Columbia filed a Section

4 general rate case in Docket No. RP95–

408–000, et al. Columbia filed to have

rates effective September 1, 1995, but

the Commission, by letter order dated

August 31, 1995, suspended rates for

five months making the effective date

February 1, 1996. Columbia

subsequently filed, on December 29,

1995, tariff sheets to ‘‘track’’ when it

filed its scheduled quarterly PGA and

storage tracker filing on January 3, 1996.

Furthermore, ESNG states it has not

billed its storage customers and will not

until it receives the Commission’s

authorization as requested herein.

ESNG states that copies of the filing

have been served upon its jurisdictional

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, 888

First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C.

20426, in accordance with Rule 211 and

Rule 214 of the Commission’s Rules of

Practice and Procedure (18 CFR Section

385.211 and Section 385.214). 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 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.
