Northwest Pipeline Corporation v. El Paso Natural Gas Company; 
Notice of Complaint

January 28, 2000.
    Take notice that on January 27, 2000, Northwest Pipeline 
Corporation (Northwest) filed a complaint against EL Paso Natural Gas 
Company (El Paso) pursuant to 18 CFR 206. Northwest asserts that El 
Paso is violating GISB standards 1.3.2 and 1.3.22 by failing to adhere 
to the confirmation deadlines and confirmation quantities set forth 
therein. Northwest claims that El Paso's failure results in scheduled 
quantity differences between the pipelines at the interconnect point. 
Northwest has been unsuccessful in trying to get EL Paso to comply and 
requests that the Commission order El Paso to adhere to, and to 
determine scheduled quantities for the period dating back to June 1, 
1999 in accordance with, the GISB standards.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this filing should 
file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, 
in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of 
Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214). All such motions 
or protests must be filed on or before February 16, 2000. 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 
proceeding. 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
