Southern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Settlement Compliance 
Filing

December 3, 1999.
    Take notice that on November 30, 1999, Southern Natural Gas Company 
(Southern) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Seventh 
Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets to become effective 
January 1, 2000:

Fourth Revised Thirty-Fourth Revised Sheet No. 14A
Fourth Revised Fortieth Revised Sheet No. 15A
Fourth Revised Thirty-fourth Revised Sheet No. 16A
Fourth Revised Fortieth Revised Sheet No. 17A
Second Revised Sixteenth Revised Sheet No. 18A

    Southern asserts that the purpose of this filing is to comply with 
the Commission's Order issued on September 29, 1995, which approved the 
Stipulation and Agreement (Settlement) filed by Southern on March 15, 
1995 in Docket Nos. RP89-224-012, et al. In accordance with Article VII 
of the Settlement, Southern has made this filing to recover a GSR 
volumetric surcharge based on amounts not received during 1999.
    Paragraph 17 of Article VII of the Settlement provides for Southern 
to file by December 1 of each year to collect unrecovered gas supply 
realignment (GSR) costs through its GSR volumetric surcharge, to be 
effective for the parties supporting the Settlement beginning January 1 
of the following year. The proposed GSR volumetric surcharge of $.0004/
Dth reflects an increase from the $.0002/Dth surcharge currently in 
effect.
    Southern states that copies of the filing were served upon 
Southern's customers, intervening parties and interested state 
commissions.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Washington, DC 20426, in 
accordance with sections 385.214 or 385.211 of the Commission's Rules 
and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed in 
accordance with 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. 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. This filing may be viewed on the web at http://
