Transwestern Pipeline Company; Notice of Proposed Changes in FERC 
Gas Tariff

October 3, 1996.
    Take notice that on September 30, 1996, Transwestern Pipeline 
Company (Transwestern) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets, with 
a proposed effective date of November 1, 1996:

1st Revised Sheet No. 5B.02

    On May 2, 1995, Transwestern filed a Stipulation and Agreement in 
Docket Nos. RP95-271, et al. which resolved, among other things, all 
issues relating to Transwestern's recovery of unfiled take-or-pay, buy-
out, buy-down and contract reformation costs eligible for recovery 
under Order No. 528.
    On August 31, 1995, Transwestern made an initial TCR II filing in 
Docket No. RP95-425. In that filing Transwestern sought recovery of 
$10,622,519.55 (``TCR II-No. 1''). These costs were allocated based on 
the allocation factor (``TCR II Allocation Factor'') under the TCR II 
mechanism stated in Transwestern's FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised 
Volume No. 1.
    Pursuant to the Stipulation and Transwestern's FERC Gas Tariff, 
Second Revised Volume No. 1, the TCR II Allocation Factor is to be 
recalculated for each Current Firm Shipper to be effective on each 
subsequent November 1 during the TCR II amortization period.
    On September 29, 1995, Transwestern made an initial filing to 
calculate TCR II allocation factors for each Current Firm Shipper 
effective November 1, 1995.
    Transwestern states that the purpose of this filing is to submit 
the tariff sheet containing the new TCR II reservation surcharges based 
on the updated TCR II Allocation Factors that resulted from the annual 
recalculation to be effective November 1, 1996.
    Transwestern states that copies of the filing were served on its 
gas utility customers, interested state commissions, and all parties to 
this proceeding.
    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 Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice 
and Procedure. All such motions or protests should 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 the 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.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
