Texas Eastern states that the purpose of this filing is to comply with the directives of the Commission's Letter Order dated January 5, 2001, in Docket Nos. RP01-182-000 and RP01-182-001 (January 5 Order).

Texas Eastern states that on December 7, 2000, revised tariff sheets were filed in this docket in order to make the benefits and opportunities of e-commerce available to Texas Eastern's existing and potential customers. The proposed tariff modifications permit customers to request service agreements electronically and to execute such contracts on-line via the LINKr System, as well as to expedite the net present value contract request and contract execution processes.

Texas Eastern states that the January 5 Order accepted Texas Eastern's December 7 tariff filing, effective January 7, 2001, subject to the condition that Texas Eastern file, within ten days of the January 5 Order, revised tariff sheets to (i) maintain its tariff provision awarding capacity on a pro rata basis and (ii) continue to allow a shipper to withdraw a request for service prior to the close of the open season.

Texas Eastern states that copies of its filing have been mailed to all affected customers and interested state commissions.
