Columbia Gulf Transmission Company; Notice of Proposed Changes in 
FERC Gas Tariff

April 25, 1995.
    Take notice that on April 19, 1995, Columbia Gulf Transmission 
Company (Columbia Gulf) tendered for filing to become part of its FERC 
Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets, 
to be effective May 4, 1995, the effective date of Order No. 577.

First Revised Sheet No. 191A
Second Revised Sheet No. 192
Second Revised Sheet No. 194
First Revised Sheet No. 388
First Revised Sheet No. 395

    In Order No. 577, the Commission modified its capacity release 
regulations to permit shippers to release firm capacity for a period of 
one calendar month or less without having to comply with advance 
posting and bidding requirements. A related change provides for a 28 
(rather than 30) day hiatus during which shippers that released 
capacity at less than the maximum rate under the exemptions cannot re-
release that capacity to the same replacement shipper at less than the 
maximum tariff rate.
    Columbia Gulf states that the above-referenced tariff sheets are 
being filed to revise the capacity release and assignment provisions 
and forms in the tariff to reflect changes mandated by Order No. 577. 
In addition, Columbia Gulf is shortening the duration of minimum 
posting periods for capacity release transactions.
    Columbia Gulf states that copies of its filing have been mailed to 
all firm customers and affected state regulatory commissions.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 825 North Capitol Street NE., Washington, DC 
20426, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules 
of Practice and Procedure. All such motions or protests should be filed 
on or before May 2, 1995. 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 Columbia 
Gulf's filings are on file with the Commission and are available for 
public inspection.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
