Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Proposed Changes in FERC 
Gas Tariff

May 5, 1998.
    Take notice that on May 1, 1998, Northern Natural Gas Company 
(Northern) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Fifth 
Revised Volume No. 1 and Original Volume No. 2, revised tariff sheets 
set forth in Appendix A to the filing to effectuate changes in the 
rates and terms applicable to Northern's jurisdictional service. The 
effect of the rate case is an overall increase in revenues of 
approximately $35 million above the Base Period revenues. Northern also 
is submitting several proposals to enhance service flexibility and 
operational and economic efficiency on the Northern system.
    Norther states that the changes reflected in the Revised Tariff 
Sheets to be effective June 1, 1998, are required to effectuate the 
rate increase and to make certain changes to Northern's tariff based on 
Northern's operating experience. Northern also proposes an effective 
date of November 1, 1998, for certain of the Revised Tariff Sheets 
which require additional business process and system changes for all 
parties prior to implementation. Finally, Northern proposes Pro Forma 
Tariff Sheets which reflect further changes to become effective on a 
prospective basis following a omission order on the merits or a 
settlement of this proceeding.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 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 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 proceedings.
