[Docket No. RP03-20-001]


 
Transwestern Pipeline Company; Notice of Compliance Filing


November 29, 2002.
    Take notice that on November 25, 2002, Transwestern Pipeline 
Company (Transwestern) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 1, Substitute Fourth Revised Sheet 
No. 95J, to become effective November 11, 2002.
    Transwestern states that on October 11, 2002, Transwestern proposed 
tariff revisions setting forth the criteria that would permit 
Transwestern to terminate a temporary capacity release (October 11 
Filing). Specifically, Transwestern added a new section 30.4 (g) to 
Transwestern's General Terms and Conditions, Transporter's Right to 
Terminate a Temporary Capacity Release. Under this new section 
Transwestern proposed two conditions by which Transwestern would 
terminate a temporary capacity release upon 30-days' written notice. 
Those conditions were that: (1) The Releasing Shipper had failed to 
maintain creditworthiness in accordance with Rate Schedule FTS-1 and 
Sections 13 and 30 of the General Terms and Conditions of 
Transwestern's Tariff, and (2) that the rate stated in the effective 
Replacement Shipper's Service Agreement is less than the Releasing 
Shipper's contract rate. Transwestern states that on November 8, 2002, 
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (``Commission'') issued an 
order (``Order'') accepting the proposed tariff revisions subject to 
Transwestern modifying the provisions to provide that Transwestern may 
terminate the contract with the Replacement Shipper only after it has 
terminated the contract with the Releasing Shipper. The instant filing 
reflects the modification directed by the Commission's Order. However, 
Transwestern requests that the Commission defer action on accepting and 
making the modification effective until after ruling on the request for 
rehearing, which Transwestern is filing concurrent with the instant 
filing.
    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 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. This filing is available for review at the 
Commission in the Public Reference Room or may be viewed on the 
Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``FERRIS'' link.

number field to access the document. For Assistance, please contact

encourages electronic filings. See 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the
