Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation; Notice of Tariff 
Filing

July 5, 1996.
    Take notice that Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation 
(Transco) tendered for filing on June 28, 1996 in Appendix A thereto 
Fourteenth Revised Sheet No. 60 to its FERC Gas Tariff, Third Revised 
Volume No. 1. The proposed effective date of such tariff sheet is 
August 1, 1996.
    The instant filing is submitted pursuant to Section 39 of the 
General Terms and Conditions of Transco's FERC Gas Tariff which 
provides that Transco will file to adjust its Great Plains Volumetric 
Surcharge (GPS) 30 days prior to each GPS Annual Period beginning 
August 1. The GPS Surcharge is designed to recover i) the cost of gas 
purchased from Great Plains Gasification Associates (or its successor) 
which exceeds the Spot Index (as defined in Section 39 of the General 
Terms) and ii) the related cost of transporting such gas.
    The revised GPS Surcharge included therein consists of two 
components--the Current GPS Surcharge calculated for the period August 
1, 1996 through July 31, 1997 plus the Great Plains Deferred Account 
Surcharge (Deferred Surcharge). The determination of the Deferred 
Surcharge is based on the balance in the current GPS subaccount plus 
accumulated interest at April 30, 1996.
    Included in Appendix B attached to the filing are workpapers 
supporting the calculation of the revised GPS Surcharge of $0.0227 per 
dt reflected on the tariff sheet included therein.
    Transco states that copies of the instant filing are being mailed 
to customers, State Commissions and other interested parties. In 
accordance with the provisions of Section 154.16 of the Commission's 
Regulations, copies of this filing are available for public inspection, 
during regular business hours, in a convenient form and place at 
Transco's main offices at 2800 Post Oak Boulevard in Houston, Texas.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protests said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E. Washington, D.C. 20426, 
in accordance with Sections 385.214 and 385.11 of the Commission's 
Rules and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed as 
provided in 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. Any person wishing to become a party must file a motion 
to intervene. Copies of this filing are on file with the Commission and 
are available for public inspection in the Public Reference Room.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
