    Sea Robin Asserts that the purpose of this filing is to comply with 
the Commission's order issued November 3, 1997 in Docket No. RP95-167-
004 (November 3, Order).
    On December 31, 1996, Sea Robin filed a Stipulation and Agreement 
(Stipulation) in Docket No. RP95-167 under which it intended to resolve 
all of the issues in the proceeding and to implement revised rates 
effective January 1, 1997. The Stipulation Lowered Sea Robin's 
interruptible transportation (IT) rate from $0.0842/Dth to $0.08/Dth 
and lowered its firm transportation (FT) demand rate from $2.39/Dth to 
$2.26/Dth and FT commodity rate from $0.0126/Dth to $0.004/Dth 
(Settlement Rates). On April 22, 1997, the Commission issued its 
``Order on Settlement, Establishing Just and Reasonable Rates'' (April 
22 Order), which required Sea Robin to reduce both its existing rates 
and Settlement Rates under Section 5(a) of the Natural Gas Act, 15 
U.S.C. 717d(a) (1996). On rehearing of the April 22 Order, however, the 
Commission issued its November 3 Order, which accepted the Settlement 
Rates as just and reasonable. Under the November 3 Order, the 
Settlement Rates become effective for contesting parties on May 1, 1997 
and for non-contesting parties on January 1, 1997.
    As required by the November 3 Order, Sea Robin submits the revised 
Tariff sheets (1) to place Settlement Rates into effect for non-
contesting parties as of January 1, 1997; (2) to maintain the pre-
Stipulation rates for contesting parties through April 30, 1997; (3) to 
place Settlement Rates into effect for all parties as of May 1, 1997; 
and (4) to implement Gas Industry Standards Board standards and Annual 
Charge Adjustment surcharges, effective the dates these standards and 
revised surcharges were implemented, for the services to which these 
rates apply.
    Any person desiring to protest this filing should file a protest 
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., 
Washington, D.C. 20426, in accordance with Section 385.211 of the 
Commission's Rules and Regulations. All such protests must be filed in 
accordance with 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.

Secretary.
