Endicott Pipeline Company; Notice Approving First Amendment 
Settlement

January 21, 1999.
    Take notice that on January 12, 1999, pursuant to Rule 207 of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.207, the State 
of Alaska (State) and Endicott Pipeline Company (EPC) filed a petition, 
asking the Commission to approve the ``First Amendment to Settlement 
Agreement Between State of Alaska and Endicott Pipeline Company'' 
(First Amendment). The petitioners state that the First Amendment 
amends the ``Endicott Settlement Agreement,'' which established the 
method for calculating rates for the Endicott Pipeline, and was 
approved in Endicott Pipeline Co., 63 FERC para.61,076 (1993).
    The petitioners further state that the changes the First Amendment 
makes to the Endicott Settlement Agreement are required because of the 
recent connection to the Endicott Pipeline by the Badami Oil Pipeline. 
The Endicott Settlement Agreement did not provide a method for 
allocating costs among deliveries originating at different receipt 
points in case of such a connection. The First Amendment adopts a 
barrel-mile allocation methodology, which the petitioners state is 
consistent with the cost allocation method the Commission has approved 
for use by the Trans Alaska Pipeline System.
    The State and EPC indicate that they have served the foregoing 
Petition to amend the Endicott Settlement Agreement upon all 
subscribers to Endicott Pipeline Company's tariffs.
    Initial comments on the filing are due on or before February 1, 
1999, and any reply comments are due on or before February 11, 1999.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
