[Docket No. RP03-195-000]
Dominion Transmission, Inc.; Notice of Tariff Filing
December 13, 2002.
Take notice that on December 9, 2002, Dominion Transmission, Inc.
(DTI) tendered for filing to be part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Third
Revised Volume No. 1, First Revised Sheet No. 308, with an effective
date of February 1, 2003.
DTI states that this tariff filing is intended to eliminate
potential ambiguity in DTI's Rate Schedule GSS by clarifying that the
holder of storage capacity at the start of each Winter Period is
responsible for compliance with DTI's minimum turnover requirements.
DTI explains that the minimum turnover provisions are intended to
provide an incentive for customers to withdraw volumes from storage
during the Winter Period consistent with DTI's operational
requirements. DTI explains that the minimum turnover requirements are
seasonal, not monthly and that this flexibility renders the tariff
provisions arguably ambiguous with respect to their application in the
event of capacity release during the Winter Period.
DTI states that the only reasonable interpretation of the minimum
turnover provisions places the responsibility for the required
withdrawals on the only shipper with the opportunity to ensure that
withdrawals are made during the Winter Period--that is, the shipper
that holds the capacity on November 1 of each year.
DTI states that copies of its letter of transmittal and enclosures
have been served upon DTI's 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
Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``FERRIS'' link.
