    Texas Eastern Transmission Corporation; Proposed Changes in FERC 
    Gas Tariff
    
    February 7, 1994.
        Take notice that on January 25, 1994 Texas Eastern Transmission 
    Corporation (Texas Eastern) submitted for filing as part of its FERC 
    Gas Tariff, Sixth Revised Volume No. 1, the tariff sheets listed on 
    Appendix A of the filing.
        Texas Eastern states that on December 21, 1993, Texas Eastern filed 
    a letter with the Commission in which it requested the withdrawal of 
    tariff sheets filed on December 7, 1993 in Docket No. GT94-13-000 and 
    stated that it would refile tariff sheets to reflect the concerns of 
    National Fuel Gas Distribution Corporation expressed in its protest 
    filed in Docket No. GT94-13-000. Accordingly, Texas Eastern herewith 
    submits as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Sixth Revised Volume No. 1, the 
    tariff sheets listed on Appendix A to the filing to replace such 
    withdrawn tariff sheets.
        (1) Texas Eastern states that this filing is submitted in light of 
    the Commission's July 14, 1993 ``Order on Compliance with Restructuring 
    Rule'' for Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation (Columbia) in Docket 
    No. RS92-5, et al., (``July 14 Order'') and the Commission's June 18, 
    1993 ``Order on Compliance With Restructuring Rule'' for Granite State 
    Gas Tarnsmission, Inc. (Granite State'' in Docket No. RS93-1, et al., 
    (``June 18 Order''). Texas Eastern states that it is filing the tariff 
    sheets on Appendix A to the filing for the purpose of reflecting that, 
    pursuant to the July 14 Order and the June 18 Order, certain customers 
    of Columbia and Granite State became direct customers of Texas Eastern 
    (``Converting Customer'')\1\ effective November 1, 1993, by taking 
    assignment of their respective service rights attributable to 
    Columbia's and Granite State's service agreements as of October 31, 
    1993 with Texas Eastern under Texas Eastern's Rate Schedules CDS, FT-1 
    and SS-1.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
        \1\The Converting Customers from Columbia are Columbia Gas 
    Company of Pennsylvania; Elizabethtown Gas Company; New Jersey 
    Natural Gas Company; New York State Electric and Gas Corporation; 
    Penn Fuel Gas, Inc.; The Providence Gas Company and UGI Utilities, 
    Inc. Not all of Columbia's customers elected to take assignment of 
    their respective service rights and become direct customers of Texas 
    Eastern. As a result, such service rights remained with Columbia. 
    The Converting Customers from Granite State are Bay State Gas 
    Company and Northern Utilities, Inc.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
        Texas Eastern states that in order to reflect the decrease in 
    Columbia's and Granite State's entitlements under their affected 
    service agreements and to reflect the relevant entitlements of the 
    Converting Customers, Texas Eastern is submitting Fifth Revised Sheet 
    Nos. 564-548, 549-551, 553-555, 556-558, 560-562, 563-565, 567-569, 
    570-572, 575-577, 578-580, 581-583 and 599-601 and Second Revised Sheet 
    Nos. 548A, 551A, 555A, 558A, 562A, 565A, 569A, 572A, 577A, 580A, 583A 
    and 601A to reflect modifications to Sections 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.9 
    and 14.4 of the General Terms and Conditions of its FERC Gas Tariff, 
    Sixth Revised Volume No. 1.
        (2) Texas Eastern states that in addition to the changes discussed 
    above, Texas Eastern is submitting Fifth Revised Sheet Nos. 546, 547, 
    549, 550, 553, 554, 556, 557, 560, 561, 563, 564, 567, 568, 570, 571, 
    575, 576, 578, 579, 581, 582, 599 and 600 to reflect the modifications 
    to Sections 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.9 and 14.4 of the General Terms and 
    Conditions of its FERC Gas Tariff, Sixth Revised Volume No. 1 necessary 
    to reflect a permanent reallocation of Base and Operational Segment 
    Capacity Entitlements, pursuant to the Commission's Regulations\2\ 
    promulgated in Order No. 636-A\3\ from Village of Cobden, Illinois; 
    City of Grayville Public Utilities; and City of Jonesboro, Illinois to 
    City of Kennett, Missouri and Indiana Gas Company under Texas Eastern's 
    Rate Schedule SCT. Texas Eastern States that all parties to the 
    reallocation have agreed to the effective date of November 1 1993. 
    Further, Westport Natural Gas Company notified Texas Eastern that it 
    has merged with and changed its name to Indiana Gas Company. Texas 
    Eastern has reflected this change and combined its entitlements with 
    those of Indiana Gas Company in this filing.

        (3) Texas Eastern states that in addition to the changes discussed 
    above, Texas Eastern is submitting Fifth Revised Sheet Nos. 548, 551, 
    562, 565, 569, 572 and 601 to reflect the modifications to Sections 
    9.2, 9.4, 9.5 and 14.4 necessary to reflect a permanent capacity 
    release transaction executed under Texas Eastern's Rate Schedule CDS. 
    The Access Area release was from Public Service Electric & Gas to 
    Philadelphia Electric Company to be effective November 1, 1993. Texas 
    Eastern states that it posted the capacity release transaction on the 
    LINK System in accordance with Section 3.14 of Texas 
    Eastern's General Terms and Conditions of its FERC Gas Tariff, Sixth 
    Revised Volume No. 1.
        (4) In addition to the changes discussed above, Texas Eastern is 
    submitting Fifth Revised Sheet Nos. 546, 549, 553, 556, 560, 563, 567, 
    570, 575, 578, 581 and 599 and Second Revised Sheet Nos. 548A, 551A, 
    555A, 558A, 562A, 565A, 569A, 572A, 577A, 580A, 583A and 601A to 
    reflect the modifications to Sections 9.2, 9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.9 and 14.4 
    necessary to reflect the termination of an executed service agreement 
    with Central Illinois Public Service Company and the scheduled 
    reduction in quantities for Texas Gas Transmission Corporation under 
    Texas Eastern's Rate Schedule FT-1. Texas Eastern states that it posted 
    this available capacity on the LINK System in accordance with 
    Sections 2 and 3.14 of Texas Eastern's General Terms and Conditions of 
    its FERC Gas Tariff, Sixth Revised Volume No. 1 and is representing 
    this capacity, available November 1, 1993, as ``Available Firm'' on the 
    tariff sheets.

    agreements from the Converting Customers, Texas Eastern will file with 
    the Commission such executed service agreements and update the Index of 
    Firm Customers contained in its FERC Gas Tariff, Sixth Revised Volume 
    No. 1.
        The proposed effective date of the tariff sheets is November 1,
