[Docket No. RP00-476-004]
Southern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Proposed Changes to FERC
Gas Tariff
May 31, 2002.
Take notice that on May 13, 2002, Southern Natural Gas Company
(Southern) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Seventh
Revised Volume No. 1, the revised tariff sheets listed on Appendix A to
the filing.
Southern states that the filing is being made in compliance with
the Commission's Order on Southern's Order No. 637 Settlement dated
April 11, 2002, to become effective July 1, 2002. Those sheets that
remain designated as pro forma sheets will require additional
programming and testing time such that the system will not be in place
to accommodate those enhancements until December 1, 2002. Southern will
plan to make a filing to place those sheets into effect based on the
terms of the order it receives herein.
On April 11, 2002, the Commission issued an order on Southern's
July 2, 2001 Settlement proposal to comply with the terms of Order No.
637. Such order modified the terms of the Settlement such that the
parties withdrew from the Settlement and the Settlement dissolved under
its own terms. Based on the terms of the Order, Southern submits the
following tariff revisions to comply with the terms of the Order: (1)
Implementation of the capacity release timetables for biddable and
nonbiddable releases consistent with Version 1.5 of the NAESB
Standards; (2) changes to the segmentation in reticulated areas; (3)
implementation of expanded flexible receipt point rights for capacity
release transactions; (4) addition of a within the path priority for
Exhibit A-1 receipt point nominations and implementation of within the
path Exhibit B-1 delivery point priorities; (5) implementation of
procedures to approve shifting a discount to an alternate receipt or
delivery point where that discount has been contracted for on a point
specific basis; (6) implementation of revised OFO procedures as
approved in the Order; and (7) implementation of a process to allow
shippers to use a third party's storage to reconcile imbalance and
enhanced use of ISS and storage transfers into and from storage
accounts.
Any person desiring to protest said filing should file a protest
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 20426, in accordance with Section 385.211 of the
Commission's Rules and Regulations. All such protests must be filed on
or before June 7, 2002. 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. Copies of this filing
are on file with the Commission and are available for public
inspection. This filing may also be viewed on the web at http://
www.ferc.gov using the ``RIMS'' link, select ``Docket'' and
follow the instructions (call 202-208-2222 for assistance). Comments,
