Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America; Notice of Proposed 
Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

June 6, 1995.
    Take notice that on June 1, 1995, Natural Gas Pipeline Company of 
America (Natural) tendered for filing proposed changes in its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Sixth Revised Volume No. 1, to become effective July 1, 1995.
    Natural states that the purpose of this filing is to comply with 
Article VIII of Natural's Stipulation and Agreement at Docket No. RP93-
36, which required Natural to file a general rate case to be effective 
no later than December 1, 1995. The filing reflects a 14.25% equity 
return allowance, increased depreciation rates for onshore transmission 
and storage facilities, and increased levels of operating costs when 
compared to the Docket No. RP93-36 settlement. In addition, Natural's 
filing reflects the implementation of a revised transportation zone 
boundary system consistent with its pending rate design settlement 
filed February 8, 1995, at Docket No. RP93-36.
    Natural has also included in the filing a Pro Forma set of rates 
covering new and revised services on its system. The Pro Forma filing 
reflects the requested implementation of two new storage services under 
Rate Schedules DSS and NSS, as well as the addition of new service 
options under existing Rate Schedules FTS and FTS-G. Natural states 
that the new and revised services are intended to replace services 
currently provided under Rate Schedules S-1, LS-2, LS-3, FSS, S-2, S-2/
G, FTS-E and FTS-E/G and bring Natural's services more in line with the 
demands of the marketplace. An [[Page 30858]] effective date of 
December 1, 1995 is requested for the new services.
    Natural requests whatever waivers may be necessary to permit the 
tariff sheets as submitted herein to become effective as requested.
    Natural states that copies of the filing are being mailed to 
Natural's jurisdictional customers and interested state regulatory 
agencies.
    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, 825 North Capitol Street NE., Washington, D.C. 
20426, in accordance with Sections 385.214 and 385.211 of the 
Commission's Rules and Regulations. All such motions or protests should 
be filed on or before June 13, 1995. 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 to the proceeding 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.
