    Raton Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Proposed Changes in 
    FERC Gas Tariff
    
    October 2, 1996.
        Take notice that on September 27, 1996, Raton Gas Transmission 
    Company (Raton) tendered for filing First Revised Tariff Sheets 4, 10, 
    18 and 23 to become effective October 1, 1996. Raton receives upstream 
    transportation and storage services from Colorado Interstate Gas 
    Company (CIG); Raton's Rate Schedule FT-1, Firm Transportation Service, 
    and Rate Schedule IT-1, Interruptible Transportation Service, 
    incorporate by reference the charges by CIG for its transportation and 
    storage of natural gas from CIG's points of receipt to its delivery to 
    Raton pursuant to CIG's currently effective Rate Schedule NNT-1.
        In Docket No. RP96-190-000, CIG has proposed, inter alia, to 
    increase its rates and to restructure its service, and to replace the 
    service presently provided pursuant to its Rate Schedule NNT-1 with 
    several optional services. Raton has elected to replace the service it 
    receives under CIG's present Rate Schedule NNT-1 with services pursuant 
    to CIG's proposed Rate Schedules NNT-1 and TF-2. Raton's First Revised 
    Tariff Sheets 4 and 18 incorporate CIG's Rate Schedule NNT-1 and TF-2 
    charges into Raton's Rate Schedules. First Revised Sheet No. 10 changes 
    the minimum Btu per cubic foot from 968 Btu's to 950 Btu's, in order to 
    reflect the minimum Btu content for natural gas accepted for shipment 
    by CIG. First Revised Sheet No. 23, Index of Shippers, replaces 
    Associated Natural with PanEnergy Field Services, Inc., which has 
    acquired the pipeline system formerly owned by Associated Natural.
        CIG's Rate Schedules NNT-1 and TF-2 will be made effective October 
    1, 1996, subject to refund. Raton has requested that its First Revised 
    Tariff Sheets 4, 10, 18 and 23 be accepted effective October 1, 1996, 
    simultaneous with the CIG tariff changes, subject to the flow-through 
    of any refunds that CIG makes when Docket No. RP96-190-000 is finally 
    resolved.
        Raton states that a full copy of its filling is being served on 
    each of its two customers and upon the New Mexico Public Service 
    Commission.
        Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this filing should 
    file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy 
    Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20426 in accordance with 18 CFR 
    385.214 and 385.211 of the Commission's Rules and Regulations. All such 
    motions or protests must be filed as provided in 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 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 
    in the Public Reference Room.
    Lois D. Cashell,
    Secretary.
