PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

Pacific Interstate Transmission Company, sometimes referred to herein as

"Pacific Interstate" or "Seller," is a natural gas company and, as such, is

subject to the jurisdiction of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

Pacific Interstate supplies gas to purchasers under service agreements for

delivery at various points in the western portion of the United States.

Pacific Interstate's system consists of its Northwest Division System and

its Southwest Division System.

The Northwest Division System was established as part of an overall project

for the purchase, transportation and sale of gas from the northern regions

of Alaska and Canada. Currently, Canadian gas is purchased at the inter-

national boundary near Kingsgate, British Columbia, transported by others

to the California border and sold to customers.

The Southwestern Division System is more fully described in Original Volume

No. 2 of this FERC Gas Tariff.

The gas receipt and delivery points of the Northwest Division System are

depicted on the map constituting Sheet No. 3 of Original Volume No. 1 of

Pacific Interstate's FERC Gas Tariff.

It is the policy of Pacific Interstate to undertake the purchase, sale and

transport, or provide for transport, of gas only pursuant to written con-

tracts with selected customers upon terms and conditions acceptable to

Pacific Interstate, executed after consideration of its existing commit-

ments, supplies of gas, delivery capacities, points of delivery and other

factors deemed material to Pacific Interstate.
