Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Revised Tariff Filing

October 4, 1994.
    Take notice that on September 29, 1994, Tennessee Gas Pipeline 
Company (Tennessee) filed as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Fifth Revised 
Volume No. 1, the following revised tariff sheets to reflect the 
cancellation of Rate Schedule ISST-NE (effective September 1, 1993) and 
the installation of a replacement service under Part 284 of the 
Commission's regulations:

To be Effective September 1, 1993

1st Revised Sheet No. 1
1st Revised Sheet No. 21
1st Revised Original Sheet No. 21

To be Effective November 1, 1994

2nd Revised Sheet No. 1
Original Sheet No. 21A
2nd Revised Sheet Nos. 125-129
Original Sheet No. 129A
First Revised Sheet No. 317
First Revised Sheet No. 318
Original Sheet No. 659A-659G

    Tennessee states that the Preferred Access Transportation rate 
schedule is an interruptible service that has higher priority than 
other interruptible services. The service will be generally available 
to all shippers, but is restricted to transportation of gas withdrawn 
from storage (Tennessee's or third parties') during the winter season 
from November through March. These availability restrictions reflect 
the specialized nature of the ISST service that the Preferred Access 
Transportation Rate Schedule replaces. The terms and conditions are 
similar to those in the Texas Eastern Rate Schedule PTI, which has been 
approved by the Commission. See Texas Eastern, 62 FERC 61,015 (1993).
    Tennessee states that it is proposing a higher rate than under Rate 
Schedule IT (100% load factor rather than 125% load factor), and is 
requiring monthly prepayment for monthly quantities derived from 
seasonal elections. Tennessee states that the Commission has recognized 
that higher rates are justified for special higher priority service. 
Tennessee states that because the service is interruptible, the 
revenues will be subject to the crediting mechanism in the same manner 
as those collected under Rate Schedules IT and IT-X. This service does 
not represent new throughput on the system, but merely the 
repriortization of existing interruptible volumes.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest such 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 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules 
of Practice and Procedure. All such motions or protests should be filed 
on or before October 12, 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.
