[Docket No. TM99-3-31-000]

 
Reliant Energy Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Proposed 
Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

April 7, 1999.
    Take notice that on April 1, 1999, Reliant Energy Gas Transmission 
Company (REGT) tendered for filing to become part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Fourth Revised Volume No. 1, to be effective May 1, 1999:

Seventeenth Revised Sheet No. 5
Sixteenth Revised Sheet No. 6

    REGT states that the revised tariff sheets are being filed in 
accordance with the methodologies set forth in Sections 27 and 28 of 
REGT's General Terms and Conditions, which require REGT to adjust its 
fuel percentages and Electric Power Costs (REPCT) Tracker each October 
1 and April 1 based on actual data for the twelve month period ending 
June 30 and December 31 respectively. This filing constitutes REGT's 
fuel percentages and EPC Tracker adjustments which will be effective 
May 1, 1999. The worksheets attached hereto as Appendix B provide 
supporting calculations used in deriving the proposed fuel percentages. 
The worksheets attached hereto as Appendix C provide supporting 
calculations used in deriving the EPC Tracker. Due to the lack of a 
full year of electric compressor utilization, estimated EPC Tracker 
costs are still utilized in the calculations, but have been adjusted to 
reflect actual data for the period that the electric compressor was in 
operating during the twelve months ended December 31, 1998.
    REGT respectfully requests that the Commission grant REGT any 
waivers to the Commission's regulations which may be necessary to make 
this filing effective as of May 1, 1999, and to the extent necessary, 
moves pursuant to 18 CFR 154.7(a)(9) for the referenced tariff sheets 
to go into effect on said date.
    REGT states that this filing has been mailed to each of REGT's 
customers and interested state 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, NE, Washington, DC 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 web at http://

Secretary.
