## Abstract

The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission is amending Sec. 284.12 of its regulations governing standards for conducting business practices and electronic communication with interstate natural gas pipelines to incorporate by reference the most recent version of the standards, Version 1.4, promulgated August 31, 1999 and November 15, 1999 by the Gas Industry Standards Board (GISB). The Commission also is announcing a technical conference by Commission staff to address the issues raised by a proposal to require pipelines to permit shippers to designate and rank the contracts under which gas will flow on a pipeline's system. Version 1.4 of the GISB standards can be obtained from GISB at 1100 Louisiana, Suite 3625, Houston, TX 77002, 713-356-0060, http://www.gisb.org.
