Viking Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Tariff Filing

February 21, 2002.
    Take notice that on February 13, 2002, Viking Gas Transmission 
Company (Viking) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, 
First Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets to become 
effective March 1, 2002:

1st Rev. Twenty-Seventh Revised Sheet No. 6
1st Rev. Twentieth Revised Sheet No. 6A
1st Rev. Eleventh Revised Sheet No. 6B

    Viking states that the purpose of this filing is to make Viking's 
annual adjustment to its Fuel and Loss Retention Percentages (FLRP) in 
accordance with section 154.403 of the Commission's rules and 
regulations, 18 CFR 154.403 (2001) and section 26 of the General Terms 
and Conditions of Viking's FERC Gas Tariff. Application of section 26 
of Viking's tariff results in the following new Fuel and Loss Retention 
Percentages for Rate Schedules FT-A, FT-B, FT-C, FT-D, IT and AOT 
respectively: 1.18 percent for Zone 1-1, 1.42 percent for Zone 1-2, and 
.33 percent for Zone 2-2. In addition, Viking is respectfully seeking 
waiver of section 26 of its FERC Gas Tariff in order to place the new 
FLRPs into effect on March 1, 2002 rather than on April 1, 2002 so as 
to provide the benefits of reduced FLRPs to Viking's shippers one month 
earlier.
    If the Commission declines to grant Viking's request, then Viking 
respectfully submits for filing the tariff sheet listed below to be 
part of its FERC Gas Tariff, First Revised Volume No. 1 to be effective 
on April 1, 2002:

Alt. 1st Rev. Twenty-Seventh Revised Sheet No. 6
Alt. 1st Rev. Twentieth Revised Sheet No. 6A
Alt. 1st Rev. Eleventh Revised Sheet No. 6B

    Viking states that copies of the filing have been mailed to all of 
its jurisdictional customers and to affected state regulatory 
commissions.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion

Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, in accordance

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