March 25, 1999.
    Take notice that on March 17, 1999, Pine Needle LNG Company, LLC 
(Pine Needle) filed to place into effect its FERC Gas Tariff, Original 
Volume No. 1, Original Sheet Nos 1 through 118 (Tariff). Pine Needle 
requests that its Tariff be made effective on May 1, 1999, which is the 
expected in service date for the Pine Needle facilities. The Tariff 
will allow Pine Needle to provide interstate service in compliance with 
the Commission orders issued on April 30, 1996 and November 27, 1996 in 
this proceeding.
    Pine Needle states that the Tariff incorporates the revisions 
described in the April 30 order and is in compliance with the 
requirements of the Gas Institute Standards Board (GISB). The Tariff 
also includes a tariff sheet reflecting the initial rates based upon 
the actual cost of debt as required by Ordering Paragraph (L) of the 
April 30 order.

required Pine Needle to file its initial tariff 60 days prior to its 
projected in-service date. Pine Needle states that it was unable to 
meet this date and, after discussions with Commission staff, was 
granted permission to make the filing 45 days prior to the in-service 
date.

customers and interested state Commissions.
