The instant filing is submitted pursuant to section 38 of the General Terms and Conditions of Transco's FERC Gas Tariff which provides that Transco will file, to be effective each April 1, a redetermination of its fuel retention percentages applicable to transportation and storage rate schedules. The derivation of the revised fuel retention percentages included therein are based on Transco's estimate of gas required for operations (GRO) for the forthcoming annual period April 2003 through March 2004 plus the balance accumulated in the Deferred GRO Account at January 31, 2003. Appendix B attached to the filing contains workpapers supporting the derivation of the revised fuel retention percentages.

Transco states that copies of the filing are being mailed to its affected customers and interested State Commissions.
