Conference

Take notice that a public conference in this proceeding will be
held on November 4, 1994, in the Commission Meeting Room, 825 North
Capitol Street, N.E., Washington D.C., 20426. The conference is to
consider the methodologies to be used in setting rates for
transportation service with regard to new and existing facilities
constructed by interstate natural gas pipelines. The conference also is
to examine whether revisions need to be made to the Commission's
certificate procedures related to new construction, such as its at-risk
construction policies, to provide greater guidance on rate design and
construction approvals for individual projects. On July 28, 1994, the
Commission issued a notice raising issues to be considered at the
conference.\1\ The Commission also invited comments on these issues to
be filed by September 26, 1994, and numerous comments have been
received.
