[Docket No. RP99-472-000]


Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation; Notice of filing

August 23, 1999.
    Take notice that on August 18, 1999, Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 
Corporation tendered for filing certain revised tariff sheets to its 
FERC Gas Tariff, Third Revised Volume No. 1, which tariff sheets are 
enumerated in Appendix A attached thereto. The proposed effective date 
of the revised tariff sheets is October 1, 1999.
    Transco states that the purpose of the instant filing is to revise 
Transco's tariff to update the negotiated rate authority contained 
therein to reflect developments in Commission policy relating to 
negotiated rates. Transco initially filed tariff sheets in Docket No. 
RP96-359 to establish the flexibility under its tariff to negotiate 
rates in accordance with the Commission's Statement of Policy on 
Alternatives to Traditional Cost-of-Service Ratemaking for Natural Gas 
Pipelines in Docket No. RM95-6-000, which tariff sheets were approved 
by the Commission. Since that filing, the Commission has further 
refined its negotiated rate policy in numerous individual pipeline 
proceedings. Transco proposes herein to revise its tariff to reflect, 
among other things, those refinements in order to provide to Transco 
and its shippers the full range of flexibility to negotiate rates for 
service consistent with Commission policy.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Washington, DC 20426, in 
accordance with Sections 385.214 or 385.211 of the Commission's Rules 
and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed in 
accordance with 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. This filing may be viewed on the web at http://
