CNG Transmission Corp.; Proposed Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

January 4, 1994.
    Take notice that on December 30, 1993, CNG Transmission Corporation 
(CNG) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Second 
Revised Volume No. 1, the tariff sheets listed on Appendix A to the 
filing, to become effective on February 1, 1994.
    CNG states the proposed rate changes would increase CNG's revenues 
by $106.6 million based on a test period cost of service for the twelve 
months ended September 30, 1993, as adjusted for known and measurable 
changes through June 30, 1994. CNG states that increased rates are 
necessary primarily to recover increased operation and maintenance 
expenses, increased costs of material and supplies, increased costs of 
transportation by others, increased depreciation expense, increased 
taxes, stranded costs, and increased plant investment. The filed rate 
of return is based on a capitalization of 65.73 percent common equity 
and 34.27 percent debt with an equity return of 14 percent.
    CNG's filing includes primary and alternate tariff sheets. CNG 
states that the primary tariff sheets reflect the end of CNG's 
gathering rate moratorium and the establishment of a two-part gathering 
rate. The alternate tariff sheets reflect continuation of the gathering 
rate moratorium that was approved for CNG in Docket No. RP88-211.
    CNG states that it has posted and served its filing in accordance 
with Sec. 154.16 of the regulations.
    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, NE., Washington, DC 
20426, in accordance with Rules 214 and 211 of the Commission's Rules 
of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 and 385.211). All motions or 
protests should be filed on or before January 11, 1994. 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.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
