Viking Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Tariff Filing

August 4, 1999.
    Take notice that on July 30, 1999, Viking Gas Transmission Company 
(Viking) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, First 
Revised Volume No. 1, the tariff sheets listed on Appendix A to the 
filing to be effective September 1, 1999.
    Viking states that the purpose of this filing is to establish a new 
Rate Schedule FT-D, which will be applicable to the expansion capacity 
approved by the Commission on april 15, 1999 in ``Order Issuing 
Certificate and Granting Abandonment,'' Docket No. CP98-761-000, 87 
FERC para. 61,068. Rate Schedule FT-D is identical in all respects to 
Viking's existing FT-A rate schedule, except that it applies only to 
firm shippers using the expansion capacity. Viking is also filing to 
implement the initial incremental demand rate of $10.65 per Dth/month 
for service from Emerson to any Zone 1 delivery point and $13.69 per 
Dth/month for service from Emerson to any Zone 2 delivery point 
approved by the Commission in the April 15, 1999 certificate order.
    As provided in the Commission's order, this initial rate for FT-D 
service will be subject to a retroactive ``true-up'' filing after a 
final accounting for the project has been completed. Viking is also 
making miscellaneous tariff modifications so that its tariff properly 
reflects the existence of Viking's new Rate Schedule FT-D.
    Viking states that copies of the filing have been mailed to all of 
its jurisdictional customers and to affected state regulatory 
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, N.E., Washington, D.C. 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. Copies of this filing are on file with the 
Commission and are available for public inspection in the Public 
Reference Room. This filing may be viewed on the seb at
