[Docket No. RP00-154-000]
Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Proposed Changes
in FERC Gas Tariff
January 5, 2000.
Take notice that on December 30, 1999, Columbia Gas Transmission
Corporation (Columbia) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas
Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, the following revised tariff
sheets to become effective February 1, 2000:
Forty-second Revised Sheet No. 25
Forty-second Revised Sheet No. 26
Forty-second Revised Sheet No. 27
Thirty-eight Revised Sheet No. 28
Fourth Revised Sheet No. 28B
Fifteenth Revised Sheet No. 29
Nineteenth Revised Sheet No. 30A
Columbia states that this filing is being submitted pursuant to an
order issued September 15, 1999, by the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (Commission), which approved an uncontested settlement that
resolves environmental cost recovery issues in RP95-408,, et. al.
Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation, 88 FERC para. 61,217 (1999). The
settlement established environmental cost recovery through unit
components of base rates, all as more fully set forth in Article VI of
the settlement agreement filed April 5, 1999 (Phase II Settlement).
For the period February 1, 2000 through January 31, 2001, Columbia
is required to make a limited Natural Gas Act (NGA) Section 4 filing to
adjust the base rate unit components to reflect (1) its expectation of
Remediation Program expenditures during the coming year and (2) its
realized Third Party Proceeds and actual collections from customers
through the current base rate unit components. In this filing, Columbia
has developed base rate unit components to recover the ``prospective
annual collection level'' of Main Program Costs
[[Page 1624]]
of approximately $4.5 million and of Storage Well Program Costs of $2
million.
Columbia states further that copies of this filing have been mailed
to all of its customers and affected state regulatory commissions.
Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First street, NE, Washington, DC 20426, in
accordance with sections 385.214 or 385.211 of the Commission's Rules
and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed in
accordance with 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 proceedings. 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. This filing may be viewed on the web at http://
