Transwestern Pipeline Co.; Notice of Proposed Changes in FERC Gas 
Tariff

August 27, 1999.
    Take notice that on August 23, 1999, Transwestern Pipeline Company 
(Transwestern), tendered for filing to become part of Transwestern's 
FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1 the tariff sheets attached 
to the filing, to be effective September 23, 1999.
    Transwestern is submitting these tariff sheets to establish an 
Enhanced Firm Backhaul Service (EFBH) under Rate Schedule EFBH. Forward 
haul capacity resulting from firm backhauls will provide Transwestern 
with the opportunity to offer service to other shippers. To ensure that 
Transwestern can provide firm service on such forward haul capacity, 
the tariff sheets contain a minimum transportation obligation, with a 
provision allowing Transwestern to issue operational flow orders if a 
shipper fails to nominate, confirm, schedule, tender to Transporter and 
take delivery of the full amount of the MAXDTQ on every day during the 
term of the EFBH Service Agreement. Failure to comply with an 
operational flow order will subject the shipper to a financial penalty.

regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed in accordance
