Northwest states that the changes reflect an overall change in its
jurisdictional rates for the twelve months ended January 31, 1994,
adjusted for known and measurable changes through October 31, 1994, to
provide additional revenues related to an increased revenue requirement
and redesign of rates of approximately $22.5 million.
Northwest further states that the increase in jurisdictional rates
reflected in its filing is necessary to permit Northwest the
opportunity to recover its revenue requirements due to increased costs
of operating its system primarily because of capital additions and to
provide for the redesign of rates based on reduced contract demand
resulting from the expiration of a firm transportation contract.
Northwest's filing includes various other minor changes to its
tariffs to provide for: (1) A change to the interruptible cost
allocation amount applicable to interruptible revenue crediting
procedures, (2) modification to the annual contract quantity tariff
provisions applicable to Rate Schedule TF-2, (3) a clarification to the
Rate Schedule T-1 Btu/Mcf conversion factor which is applicable to that
service's Daily Transportation Contract Quantity, and (4) a provision
whereby Northwest will credit to firm transportation shippers any
revenues it receives under discounted contracts over and above the
amount credited to cost of service in rate design.
Northwest also submitted with the filing a pro forma index of
Shippers to illustrate the contracts and services which are expected to
be effective at the time when the new rates become effective.
Northwest states that this filing was served on each of its
customers and affected state commissions pursuant to Sec. 154.16(b) of
the Commission Regulations.
Any person desiring to be heard or protest said filing should file
a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission, 825 North Capitol Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, in
accordance with Sec. 385.214 and 385.211 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure. All such motions or protests should be filed on
or before May 10, 1994. 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 proceeding. Any person wishing to
become a party must file a motion to intervene. Copies of this filing
are on file with the Commission and are available for public inspection
in the public reference room.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
