Cove Point LNG Limited Partnership; Notice of Filing

March 28, 1996.
    Take notice that on March 15, 1996, pursuant to Section 1.27 of the 
General Terms and Condition (GT&C) of Cove Point LNG Limited 
Partnership (Cove Point) FERC Gas Tariff, First Revised Volume No. 1, 
filed with the Commission its revised retainage schedule and tariff to 
be effective April 16.
    Cove Point states that the retainage for Cove Point's three peaking 
services was in excess of the 20.5 percent retainage cap for peaking 
services provided in GT&C section 1.27. Cove Point states the schedule 
attached to the filing shows that retainage levels for transportation 
services for the effective point were 2.86 percent. Cove Point states 
that the later figures is known to be inaccurate in that Cove Point 
experienced a significant problem with the meters at the Washington Gas 
(Cove Point's primary transportation customer) delivery points off of 
the Cove Point pipeline. Cove Point further states that instead of 
increasing the existing transportation retainage based on the currently 
available data, Cove Point proposes to defer any adjustment in the 
transportation retainage percentage until the inaccuracies are 
rectified.
    Cove Point states that (i) there is no change in the filed 
retainage levels to be made effective April 16, 1996; and (ii) at such 
time as Cove Point has ascertained more accurate meter readings 
regarding transportation volumes it will, to the extent a variance in 
actual versus collected retainage exists, file a revised retainage 
schedule.
    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, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 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 April 4, 1996. 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.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
