Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation; Notice of Proposed 
Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

August 13, 1996.
    Take notice that on August 8, 1996, Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 
Corporation (Transco) tendered for filing certain revised tariff sheets 
to its FERC Gas Tariff, Third Revised Volume No. 1 which tariff sheets 
are enumerated in Appendix A attached to the filing.
    Transco states that the purpose of the instant filing is to 
supplement Transco's July 22, 1996, Tracker Filing in Docket No. TM96-
15-29-000 (July 22 filing) in order to reflect the currently effective 
demand rates charged by National Fuel Gas Supply Corporation (National 
Fuel) under (a) its Rate Schedules X-42 and SS-1, the costs of which 
are included in the rates and charges payable under Transco's Rate 
Schedule LSS, (b) its Rate Schedules X-54 and SS-1, the costs of which 
are included in the rates and charges payable under Transco's Rate 
Schedule SS-2, and (c) its Rate Schedule X-58, the costs of which are 
included in the rates and charges payable under Transco's Niagara 
Import Point Project--System Expansion (NIPPs-SE). Transco's July 22 
filing failed to recognize a change in National Fuel's demand billing 
components from an Mcf basis to a Dt basis. Transco also failed to 
reflect a $100,000 transportation discount received from National Fuel 
for its Rate Schedule X-54 in calculating Transco's SS-2 rates.
    In order to correct these errors, Transco states that it is 
submitting substitute tariff sheets herein as replacements for the SS-
2, LSS and NIPPs-SE tariff sheets included in the July 22 filing. The 
tracking filing is being made pursuant to Section 4 of Transco's Rate 
Schedule LSS, Section 4 of Transco's Rate Schedule SS-2, and Section 
8.01(I) of Transco's NIPPs-SE Rate Schedule X-315.
    Transco states that included in Appendices B and C attached to the 
filing are explanations of the rate changes and details regarding the 
computation of the revised Rate Schedules LSS, SS-2, and NIPPs-SE 
rates.

    Transco states that copies of the filing are being mailed to each 
of its LSS, SS-2, and NIPPs-SE customers and interested State 
Commissions.
    Any person desiring to protest said filing should file a protest 
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, 
Washington, D.C. 20426, in accordance with Section 385.211 of the 
Commission's Rules and Regulations. All such 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. 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.
