Columbia Gulf Transmission Co. and Texas Eastern Transmission 
Corp.; Joint Petition for Approval of Stipulation

July 11, 1994.
    Take notice that on July 1, 1994, pursuant to Rule 207 of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.207, Columbia 
Gulf Transmission Company (Columbia Gulf) and Texas Eastern 
Transmission Corporation (Texas Eastern) filed a joint petition 
requesting that the Commission issue an order approving a stipulation 
entered into by Columbia Gulf and Texas Eastern on June 29, 1994. 
Petitioners state that the stipulation terminates two firm 
transportation contracts between Columbia Gulf and Texas Eastern by the 
payment of a negotiated Account No. 858 exit fee by Texas Eastern to 
Columbia Gulf in consideration for Columbia Gulf's agreement to the 
termination and abandonment of the contracts.
    The stipulation is contingent upon Commission approval, including 
Commission recognition of Texas Eastern's right to recover the exit fee 
paid to Columbia Gulf as a stranded Account No. 858 cost pursuant to 
Order No. 636 and/or pursuant to Texas Eastern's global settlement 
approved by the Commission on May 12, 1994, in Docket No. RP85-177-119, 
et al. Columbia Gulf also seeks Section 7(b) abandonment authorization 
for the two contracts.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest the petition 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 July 18, 1994. 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 petition are on file with the Commission and are available for 
public inspection.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
