    Take notice that on May 29, 1998, Columbia Gas Transmission 
Corporation (Columbia) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets to

Original Sheet No. 99R

    Purusant to the prior agreements of the parties following 
Columbia's first filing to recover Accrued-But-Not-Paid Gas Costs, this 
filing should be sub-docketed under the RP96-140 docket number.
    Columbia states that the instant filing is being submitted pursuant 
to Article VII, Section C, Accrued-But-Not-Paid Gas Costs, of the 
``Customer Settlement'' in Docket No. GP94-02, et al., approved by the 
Commission on June 15, 1995 (71 FERC para. 61,337 (1995)). The Customer 
Settlement became effective on November 28, 1995, when the Bankruptcy 
Court's November 1, 1995 order approving Columbia's Plan of 
Reorganization became final. Under the terms of Article VII, Section C, 
Columbia is entitled to recover amounts for Accrued-But-Not-Paid Gas 
Costs. As directed by Article VII, Section C, the tariff sheets 
contained herein are being filed in accordance with Section 39 of the 
General Terms and Conditions of the Tariff, to direct bill the Accrued-
But-Not-Paid Gas Costs that have been paid subsequent to November 28, 
1995.
    Columbia states that the instant filing reflects Accrued-But-Not-
Paid Gas Costs in the amount of $382,636.45 plus applicable FERC 
interest of $7,421.23. This is Columbia's eighth filing pursuant to 
Article VII, Section C, and Columbia reserves the right to make the 
appropriate additional filings pursuant to that provision. The 
allocation factors on Appendix F of the Customer Settlement were used 
as prescribed by Article VII, Section C.
    Columbia states that copies of its filing have been mailed to all 
parties on the Commission's service list in Docket No. RP96-140 and 
RP96-140-002, and to each of Columbia's firm customers, interruptible 
customers, and affected state commissions.
    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. 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 in the Public 
Reference Room.
