Kern River Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Proposed Changes 
in FERC Gas Tariff

January 4, 1995.
    Take notice that on December 30, 1994, Kern River Gas Transmission 
Company (Kern River), tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, First Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets to 
become effective on January 29, 1995:

First Revised Sheet No. 93
First Revised Sheet No. 106
First Revised Sheet No. 114
First Revised Sheet No. 818
First Revised Sheet No. 825
First Revised Sheet No. 858

    Kern River states that the revised tariff sheets are being filed in 
order to permit shippers under all of Kern River's Part 284 open-access 
firm and interruptible transportation service rate schedules to submit 
monthly nominations for service no later than two business days prior 
to the beginning of the month, instead of three business days in 
advance as required by Kern River's current tariff. Kern River states 
that this revised nominations requirement will provide Kern River's 
shippers with added flexibility in arranging their monthly business 
transactions.
    In addition, Kern River states that the two business day 
nominations requirement will allow Kern River's shippers to compete 
more fairly with shippers on competing pipelines serving the Nevada and 
California markets which already have a two business day nominations 
requirement, including El Paso Natural Gas Company, Transwestern 
Pipeline Company, and Mojave Pipeline Company. Kern River states that 
the two business day requirement is also consistent with nominations 
requirements on pipelines which interconnect with Kern River, such as 
Northwest Pipeline Corporation. In addition to the nominations deadline 
revisions, Kern River has also revised Secs. 13.1(a) and 13.1(b) of the 
General Terms and Conditions of its tariff to indicate that nominations 
should be directed to the attention of Kern River's Transportation 
Operations department instead of the Volume Coordination department. 
Kern River states that this revision is necessary to conform the tariff 
with a recent change in Kern River's organizational structure.
    Kern River states that copies of the filing were served upon Kern 
River Gas Transmission Company's jurisdictional customers.
    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, N.E., Washington, D.C. 
20426, in accordance with 18 CFR 385.214 and 385.211 of the 
Commission's Rules and Regulations. All such motions or protests should 
be filed on or before January 11, 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 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.
