[Federal Register Volume 63, Number 38 (Thursday, February 26, 1998)] [Notices] [Page 9787] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 98-4908] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. RP98-137-000] Texas Eastern Transmission Corporation; Notice of Proposed Changes in FERC Gas Tariff February 20, 1998. Take notice that on February 13, 1998, Texas Eastern Transmission Corporation (Texas Eastern) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Sixth Revised Volume No. 1 and Original Volume No. 2, revised tariff sheets listed on Appendix A to the filing to become effective April 1, 1998. Texas Eastern states that these revised tariff sheets are being filed to revise on an interim basis Texas Eastern's ASA percentages and Spot Fuel Components to be effective for the period, April 1, 1998 through November 30, 1998. Texas Eastern states that interim revisions to Texas Eastern's ASA percentages are permitted by Section 15.6(E), of the General Terms and Conditions of Texas Eastern's FERC Gas Tariff, Sixth Revised Volume No. 1, subject to Commission approval. Texas Eastern requests that the Commission approve this proposed interim revision to the ASA percentages and the Spot Fuel Components which are prescribed by the Global Settlement Docket No. RP85-177-119, et al. to be filed as a compenent of Texas Eastern's annual ASA filings under Section 15.6 of the tariff. Texas Eastern states that the increase in ASA percentages is necessary because of the termination of the supply of gas for use as fuel from Marathon Oil Company due to an agreement on a buyout of Texas Eastern's obligations under a gas supply contract. Texas Eastern states that there is no net economic impact on the customers, since the increase to the ASA percentages projected herein is exactly offset by the decrease in rates. Texas Eastern states that the impact on Texas Eastern's ASA percentages and rates of this interim filing based on typical long haul service from the Access Area Zone East Louisiana to Market Zone 3 (ELA- M3) is as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ASA percentage Spot fuel component increase decrease ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ELA-M3 Impact...................... 0.66 $(0.0168)/dth ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Texas Eastern states that copies of its filing has been mailed to all affected customers of Texas Eastern and interested state commissions, as well as all parties to the Global Settlement in Docket No. RP85-177-119, et al. 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 Sections 385.214 and 385.211 of the commission's Rules and Regulations. All such motions or 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.
