Kansas Pipeline Company; Notice of Compliance Filing

August 11, 1998.
    Take notice that on August 7, 1998, Kansas Pipeline Company (KPC), 
tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Volume No. 1, the 
following tariff sheets to become effective May 11, 1998:

Original Volume No. 1

Substitute Original Sheet No. 2
Substitute Original Sheet No. 600

    KPC states that the tariff sheets reflect compliance with the 
Commission's April 30, 1998 Order on Rehearing, which directed KPC to 
sign new service agreements with its customers. The Order further 
directed KPC to file contracts only in circumstances where the 
contracts are materially different from the Company's tariff.
    KPC states that the tariff sheets reflect the Commission's 
Regulations which state that any service contract that deviates in any 
material respect from the form of service agreement in the pipeline's 
tariff must be filed with the Commission and such non-conforming 
service agreement must be referenced in the pipeline's tariff. This 
filing includes a series of contracts between KPC and its predecessors 
and Kansas Gas Service Company (KGS) and its predecessors, and a 
settlement agreement with the Kansas Corporation Commission and KGS 
that, in the aggregate, constitute KPC's non-conforming service 
agreement with KGS.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said filing should on or before August 25, 1998, file with 
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in accordance 
with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and 
Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). All protests filed with the Commission 
will be considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be 
taken, but will not serve to make the protestants parties to the 
proceedings. Any person wishing to become a party to a proceeding or to 
participate as a party in any hearing therein must file a motion to 
intervene in accordance with the Commission's Rules.
    Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in 
and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be held 
without further notice before the Commission or its designee on this 
filing if no motion to intervene is filed within the time required 
herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter finds that a 
grant of the authorization requested is required by the public 
convenience and necessity. If a motion for leave to intervene is timely 
filed, or if the Commission on its own motion believes that a formal 
hearing is required, further notice of such hearing will be duly given.
    Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised, 
it will be unnecessary for KPC to appear or be represented at the 
hearing.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
