[[Page 8948]]

part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Original Volume No. 1, the tariff sheets 
attached to the filing, to become effective on April 1, 2004.
    PNGTS states that the purpose of its filing is to establish a new 
firm transportation service, i.e., ``Hourly Reserve Service'' (or 
``HRS''), which will be provided under a new Rate Schedule HRS. PNGTS 
states that it is proposing HRS service to provide additional options 
and flexibility to shippers, such as electricity generators, or those 
serving electricity generators, whose intra-day delivery requirements 
may not be uniform and who may require accelerated flow rates and 
minimum delivery pressures during particular periods of the gas day. 
PNGTS states that its provision of HRS service will not impair its 
ability to provide existing FT service and that PNGTS will provide HRS 
service from available system capacity; therefore no new facilities 
construction is required.
    PNGTS states that copies of this filing are being served on all 
jurisdictional customers and interested State 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, 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 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. This filing is available for review at the 
Commission in the Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the
