Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Compliance Filing

June 5, 2000.
    Take notice that on May 31, 2000, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company 
(Tennessee), tendered for filing certain revised tariff sheets for 
inclusion in Tennessee's FERC Gas Tariff, Fifth Revised Volume No. 1. 
Tennessee requests that the attached sheets be made effective July 1, 
2000.
    Tennessee states that pursuant to the May 15, 1995 comprehensive 
settlement agreement in the referenced proceeding, which resolved 
outstanding issues relating to Tennessee's recovery through rates of 
the costs of remediating polychlorinated biphenyl (``PCB'') and other 
hazardous substance list (``HSL'') contamination on its system 
(``Settlement''), Tennessee is seeking to extend the initial PCB 
adjustment period and to decrease the PCB adjustment surcharge amount 
to $0.00, all as provided for under the Settlement. Tennessee also 
states that although there are uncertainties attached to the PCH/HSL 
remediation project (``Project''), based on its best reasonable 
expectations to date, Tennessee may be able to complete the Project by 
the end of 2004.
    Tennessee further states that the extended adjustment period is 
required under the Settlement to reflect additional eligible costs that 
Tennessee expects to expend to complete the Project. Tennessee also 
notes that its request to reduce the surcharge to $0.00 is meant to 
temporarily relieve its customers of the surcharge obligation while at 
the same time leaving the recovery mechanism intact if unforeseen 
circumstances arise.
    Any person desiring to protest this 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 as 
provided in Section 154.210 of the Commission's Regulations. Protests 
will be considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate 
action be taken, but will not serve to protestants parties to the 
proceedings. 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://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims/htm (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).
