    Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Proposed Changes 
    in FERC Gas Tariff
    
    September 4, 1996.
        Take notice that on August 30, 1996, Columbia Gas Transmission 
    Corporation (Columbia) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
    Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets to 
    become effective as indicated:
    
    Effective September 1, 1996
    
    Fourteenth Revised Sheet No. 25
    Fourteenth Revised Sheet No. 26
    Fourteenth Revised Sheet No. 27
    Fifteenth Revised Sheet No. 28
    Ninth Revised Sheet No. 29
    Ninth Revised Sheet No. 30
    
    Effective October 1, 1996
    
    Fifteenth Revised Sheet No. 25
    Fifteenth Revised Sheet No. 26
    Fifteenth Revised Sheet No. 27
    Sixteenth Revised Sheet No. 28
    
        Columbia states that this filing constitutes its Mid-Cycle filing 
    pursuant to Section 36.2 of the General Terms and Conditions (GTC) of 
    its FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1. GTC Section 36, 
    ``Transportation Costs Rate Adjustment (TCRA)'', enables Columbia to 
    adjust its TCRA rates prospectively to reflect estimated current costs. 
    In this filing, Columbia proposes to adjust its current Operational 
    TCRA and current Stranded TCRA rates.
        Columbia states that its filing includes projected costs in the 
    amount of $15,051,499 for the Operational Account No. 858 contracts, 
    which represents a decrease of $265,584 from the projected levels 
    established in Docket No. RP96-165, and which are based upon the rates 
    of the applicable pipeline companies at October 1, 1996, and the 
    respective determinants associated with those contracts.
        Columbia, states that by this filing, it is also proposing to make 
    an out-of-cycle adjustment so as to eliminate the current stranded 
    demand rates effective September 1, 1996, since it will have fully 
    recovered the stranded TCRA demand costs provided for under its 
    Customer Settlement approved in Docket No. GP94-2, et al., as of August 
    31, 1996. Elimination of the current stranded demand rate effective 
    September 1, 1996, will allow Columbia's customers to avoid a deferral 
    of over-recoveries of stranded costs.
        Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this 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 385.211 of the Commission's 
    Rules and Regulations. All 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.
    Louis D. Cashell,
    Secretary.
