[Docket No. RP01-168-000]


Northern Border Pipeline Company; Notice of Proposed Changes in 
FERC Gas Tariff

December 6, 2000.
    Take notice that on December 1, 2000, Northern Border Pipeline 
Company (Northern Border) tendered for filing to become part of its 
FERC Gas Tariff, First Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff 
sheets to become effective January 1, 2001:

Eighteenth Revised Sheet Number 156
Seventeenth Revised Sheet Number 157

    Northern Border proposes to increase the Maximum Rate from 4,038 
cents per 100 Dekatherm-Miles to 4.083 cents per 100 Dekatherm-Miles 
and to increase the Minimum Revenue Credit from 1.625 cents per 100 
Dekatherm-Miles to 2.450 cents per 100 Dekatherm-Miles. The Maximum 
Rate reflects Northern Border's rate case at Docket No. RP99-322-000, 
which was suspended by the Commission in its order dated June 30, 1999 
that became effective December 1, 1999. Thus, a portion of this Maximum 
Rate will be billed subject to refund. The revised Maximum Rate and 
Minimum Revenue Credit are being filed in accordance with Northern 
Border's Tariff provisions under Rate Schedule IT-1.
    Northern Border states that copies of this filing have been sent to 
all of Northern Border's contracted shippers and interested state 
regulatory commissions.
    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,

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.
