[Docket No. RP97-182-004]
South Georgia Natural Gas Company; Notice of Proposed Changes to
FERC Gas Tariff
May 6, 1997.
Take notice that on May 2, 1997, South Georgia Natural Gas Company
(South Georgia) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff,
Second Revised Volume No. 1, the following revised Tariff sheet in
compliance with the Commission's Order No. 587-B and the Commission's
March 4, 1997 Order in this docket, to become effective June 1, 1997:
Eighth Revised Sheet No. 5.
On July 17, 1996, the Commission issued Order No. 587 in Docket No.
RM96-1-000 which revised the Commission's regulations governing
interstate natural gas pipelines to require such pipelines to follow
certain standardized business practices issued by the Gas Industry
Standards Board (GISB) and adopted by the Commission in said Order. 18
CFR 284.10(b).
On December 4, 1996, South Georgia made its compliance filing
submitting pro forma tariff sheets to comply with Order No. 587. On
March 4, 1997, the Commission issued an order in this docket in
response to South Georgia's filing. The order required South Georgia to
revise and submit its compliance filing for implementation of the
approved standards by June 1, 1997. South Georgia submitted its
compliance filing on April 15, 1997, but requested a waiver not to
implement Version 1.1 of Standard 5.3.22 on the basis that the
Commission subsequently approved a revised version of the standard
which matched South Georgia's current practice for calculating maximum
daily reservation rates on a volumetric basis for releases of firm
service. Rather than implement a change for a very short time, South
Georgia proposed making a filing to implement Version 1.1 of
[[Page 25937]]
Standard 5.3.22 on June 1, 1997, which is earlier than the November 1,
1997 deadline. The revised sheet listed above reflects revised Standard
5.3.22.
Any person desiring to protest this filing should file a protest
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 20426, in accordance with Rule 211 and 214 of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedures (18 CFR Section 385.211).
All such 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 proceeding. Copies of this
filing are on file with the Commission and are available for public
inspection in the Public Reference Room.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
