Texas Eastern Transmission, LP; Notice of Proposed Changes in 
FERC Gas Tariff

January 7, 2004.
    Take notice that on December 30, 2003, Texas Eastern Transmission, 
LP (Texas Eastern) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, 
Seventh Revised Volume No. 1 and First Revised Volume No. 2, revised 
tariff sheets listed on Appendix B to the filing to become effective 
February 1, 2004.
    Texas Eastern states that these revised tariff sheets are filed 
pursuant to Section 15.1, Electric Power Cost (EPC) Adjustment, of the 
General Terms and Conditions of Texas Eastern's FERC Gas Tariff, 
Seventh Revised Volume No. 1.
    Texas Eastern states that Section 15.1 provides that Texas Eastern 
shall file, to be effective each February 1, revised rates for each 
applicable zone and rate schedule based upon the projected annual 
electric power costs required for the operation of transmission 
compressor stations with electric motor prime movers. Texas Eastern 
further states that the revised tariff sheets also reflect the EPC 
Surcharge, which is designed to clear the balance in the Deferred EPC 
Account.
    Texas Eastern states that all costs of electric power compression 
required for the incremental services under the TIME and Freehold 
Projects are appropriately assigned to the incremental projects as 
required by the Commission Orders certificating the TIME and Freehold 
Projects.
    Texas Eastern states that the proposed rate changes to the primary 
firm capacity reservation charges, usage rates and 100% load factor 
average costs reflected on the revised tariff sheets, for example, for 
full Access Area Boundary service from the Access Area Zone, East 
Louisiana, to the three market area zones are as follows:
