Overland Trail Transmission, LLC.; Notice of Petition for Rate 
Approval

April 15, 2003.
    Take notice that on April 1, 2003, Overland Trail Transmission, LLC 
(OTTCO) filed pursuant to section 284.123(b)(2) of the Commission's 
regulations, a petition for rate approval requesting that the 
Commission approve the proposed rates as fair and equitable for 
transportation services performed under section 311 of the Natural Gas 
Policy Act of 1978 (NGPA).
    OTTCO requests that the Commission approve as fair and equitable a 
maximum System-wide transportation rate of $0.4574 per MMBtu plus pro 
rata fuel, effective April 1, 2003. In addition, OTTCO requests 
approval of its new Wapiti Service transportation rate of $0.0591 per 
MMBtu plus pro rata fuel. OTTCO will offer both System-wide Service and 
Wapiti Service on both a firm and interruptible basis. Furthermore, 
OTTCO requests an effective date for its respective firm service 
options of May 1, 2003, for transportation services performed under 
section 311(a)(2) of the NGPA.
    Pursuant to section 284.123(b)(2)(ii), if the Commission does not 
act within 150 days of the date of this filing, the rates will be 
deemed to be fair and equitable and not in excess of an amount which 
interstate pipelines would be permitted to charge for similar 
transportation service. The Commission may, prior to the expiration of 
the 150 day period, extend the time for action or institute a 
proceeding to afford parties an opportunity for written comments and 
for the oral presentation of views, data, and arguments.
    Any person desiring to participate in this rate proceeding must 
file a motion to intervene or 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 with the 
Secretary of the Commission on or before the comment date. 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. This petition for rate approval is available for 
review at the Commission in the Public Reference Room or may be viewed
