[Docket No. RP95-408-018]


Columbia Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Compliance 
Filing

February 20, 1997.
    Take notice that on February 14, 1997, Columbia Gas Transmission 
Corporation (Columbia) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, the tariff sheets listed on 
Appendix A to the filing, to become effective on February 1, 1997.
    On December 31, 1996, as revised on January 17, 1997, Columbia 
filed revised tariff sheets in Docket No. RP95-408, et al. that, inter 
alia, would implement lower settlement rates pending Commission action 
on the November 22, 1996 settlement in this docket, contingent upon 
customers being subject to a surcharge in the event the settlement is 
not approved or implemented. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission 
(Commission) issued its order on Columbia's filings on January 29, 1997 
(78 FERC para. 61,071), which accepted the revised tariff sheets but 
which required that Columbia file revised tariff sheets setting forth 
the existing rates which any customer that does not agree to the 
surcharge provision may pay until the settlement is acted upon by the 
Commission.
    Columbia states that the instant filing is being made in compliance 
with that order. The revised tariff sheets herein indicate they are 
``Collection Rates'' and contain a statement that they are applicable 
to customers not wanting to be subject to the surcharge condition 
associated with paying the Settlement Rates. These tariff sheets 
reflect the rates that were in effect in the billing month preceding 
February 1, 1997.
    Columbia states that copies of its filing have been mailed to all 
parties in this proceeding, firm and interruptible customers, and 
affected state commissions.
    Any person desiring to protest this filing should file a protest 
with the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 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.
