The Union Light, Heat and Power Company; Notice of Petition for 
Rate Approval

February 25, 1999.
    Take notice that on February 12, 1999, The Union Light, Heat and 
Power Company (Union) filed a petition for rate approval, pursuant to 
Section 284.123(b)(2) of the Commission's Regulations, requesting that 
the Commission approve as fair and equitable a reservation fee of 
$0.3441 per MMBtu for firm-no-notice Section 311 transportation 
services performed on its system. Union states that this rate was 
developed using the Straight Fixed Variable method of rate design and 
is a 100 percent reservation charge rate.
    Union states that it is an intrastate pipeline within the meaning 
of Section 2(16) of the NGPA and it owns and operates pipeline 
facilities in Kentucky. The proposed cost of service and resulting unit 
rate are based on actual costs incurred for the 12 month period ended 
November 30, 1998 on Union's system. Union states that it will commence 
service on the date on which the petition was filed.
    Pursuant to Section 284.123(b)(2)(ii), if the Commission does not 
act within 150 days of the filing date, the rate will be deemed to be 
fair and equitable and not in excess of an amount which interstate 
pipelines would be permitted to charge for similar transportation 
service. The Commission may, prior to the expiration of the 150-day 
period, extend the time for action or institute a proceeding to afford 
parties an opportunity for written comments and for the oral 
presentation of views, data, and arguments.
    Any person desiring to participate in this rate proceeding must 
file a motion to intervene in accordance with Sections 385.211 and 
835.214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedures. All 
motions must be filed with the Secretary of the Commission on or before 
March 9, 1999. The petition for rate approval is on file with the 
Commission and is available for public inspection. This filing may be 
viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (Call 202-
208-2222 for assistance).
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
