listed below, to become effective November 1, 1997:

    Grante State Asserts that the tariff sheets are in compliance with 
the Director letter order issued in this proceeding on October 30, 
1997. Further Granite State asserts that, it has submitted prior tariff 
filings with the Commission adopting and making effective as of 
November 1, 1997 certain Gas Industry Standard Board's (GISB) 
requirements related to Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) and

complications and delays have occurred in establishing computer 
capability to implement the GISB EDI/EDM standards and requirements in 
Granite State's operations. Accordingly, Granite State further requests 
an extension until December 31, 1997 to comply with the EDI/EDM 
requirements and the foregoing tariff sheets remove from the tariff 
those requirements until Granite State has the capability to comply 
with them.

of Maine, Massachusetts and New Hampshire, and the intervenor in Docket
