Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation; Notice of Proposed 
Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

December 26, 1995.
    Take notice that on December 19, 1995, Transcontinental Gas Pipe 
Line Corporation (Transco) tendered for filing certain revised tariff 
sheets to its FERC Gas Tariff's, Third Revised Volume No. 1 and 
Original Volume No. 2, which tariff sheets are listed in Appendix A to 
the filing. The tariff sheets are proposed to be effective as indicated 
on Appendix A.
    Transco states that the purpose of the instant filing is to comply 
with the Commission's December 4, 1995, order in the referenced 
proceeding which directed Transco to refile its rates to be effective 
September 1, 1995 to eliminate from its filed cost of service any ad 
valorem taxes associated with the gas plant Transco removed in its 
Motion filing of August 31, 1995 (Motion filing).
    In Transco's Motion filing, Transco reflected actual cost of gas 
plant in service as of August 31, 1995, which costs included an 
estimate of the actual amounts expected to be closed to gas plant in 
service during the month of August since such amounts were not known at 
the time of the filing. In the instant filing, in addition to revising 
its ad valorem taxes, Transco has revised its gas plant to reflect 
actual gas plant in service and accumulated reserve for depreciation as 
of August 31, 1995. In addition to the foregoing, Transco has made 
corresponding adjustments to ad valorem taxes, operation and 
maintenance expenses, depreciation expense, return and income taxes. 
The total cost of service reflected herein represents a $1.1 MM 
reduction from the total cost of service underlying Transco's Motion 
filing.
    Transco states that copies of the instant filing are being mailed 
to customers, State Commissions and other interested parties.
    Any person desiring to protest said filing should file a protest 
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC

Regulations. Pursuant to Section 154.210 of the Commission Regulations, 
all such protests must be filed not later than 12 days after the date 
of the filing noted above. Protests will be considered by the 
Commission in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but will 
not serve to make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Copies of 
this filing are on file with the Commission and are available for 
public inspection in the Public Reference Room.
