Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation; Notice of Proposed 
Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

November 3, 1998.
    Take notice on October 29, 1998, Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 
Corporation (Transco) tendered for filing certain revised tariff sheets 
to its FERC Gas Tariff, Third Revised Volume No. 1, which tariff sheets 
are enumerated in the filing. The proposed effective date for the 
tariff sheets is November 2, 1998.
    Transco states that the purpose of the instant filing is to comply 
with the Commission's letter order issued on October 14, 1998, as 
modified by the Commission's October 19, 1998 ``Notice of Extension of 
Time,'' (October 14 Order). The October 14 Order directed Transco to 
file revised tariff sheets to rectify exceptions found in Transco's 
September 18, 1998 filing made to comply with the Commission's Order 
No. 587-H issued July 15, 1998. Specifically, the revised tariff sheets 
include bumping notice procedures consistent with those in Transco's 
OFO procedures, and remove the phrase ``in advance of each day'' from 
all its Part 284 and Part 157 rate schedules in order to make these 
rate schedules consistent with the intra-day procedures adopted by 
Order No. 587-H.
    In addition, Transco states that the instant filing contains 
revised tariff language to clarify that Transco does not propose to 
limit shippers to one intraday nomination per nomination cycle per 
contract. Transco further states that no waivers of non-critical daily 
penalties are required as Transco's tariff contains no non-critical 
daily penalties that would apply to an interruptible transportation 
shipper whose scheduled volumes are bumped by a firm intra-day 
nomination.
    Transco requests a waiver of Section 154.203(b) of the Commission's 
regulations in order that the conforming revisions to Transco's 
services performed under Part 157 of the Commission's regulations, as 
described in the filing, may be included in the instant filing.
    Transco is serving copies of the instant filing to customers, State 
Commissions and other interested parties.
    Any person desiring to protest this filing should file a protest 
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., 
Washington, D.C. 20426, in accordance with Section 385.211 of the 
Commission's Rules and Regulations. All such 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 proceedings. Copies of this filing are on file with the Commission 
and are available for public
