Viking Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Proposed Changes in 
FERC Gas Tariff

October 8, 2003.
    Take notice that on September 29, 2003, Viking Gas Transmission 
Company (Viking) tendered for filing to become part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, First Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets to 
become effective on November 1, 2003:

Fifth Revised Sheet No. 5H
Second Revised Sheet No. 87.01
Second Revised Sheet No. 87A

    Viking states that the purpose of its filing is to modify Section 
26 of the General Terms and Conditions of its FERC Gas Tariff to 
implement a twice a year change to its fuel and loss retention 
percentage (FLRP) to become effective April 1 and November 1 of each 
year. Furthermore, Viking proposes to establish an FLRP of 2.58% for 
Zone 1-2, .2.17% for Zone 1-1 and .46% for Zone 2-2 to become effective 
November 1, 2003. This represents decreases of .32% for Zone 1-2, .2% 
to Zone 1-1 and .12% to Zone 2-2. Viking states that its proposal will 
provide greater fuel cost certainty and less volatility.

Viking's contracted shippers and interested state regulatory 
commissions.
