Natural Gas Pipeline Rate and Refund Report Filings
Summary
The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission received multiple Natural Gas Pipeline Rate and Refund Report filings on March 24-25, 2026. Filings include accounting requests from Howard Midstream Energy Partners and EPIC Crude Pipeline, transportation retainage reports from Cheniere Corpus Christi and Creole Trail pipelines, and negotiated rate filings from Millennium Pipeline, Iroquois Gas Transmission, Stagecoach Pipeline, and Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America.
What changed
FERC issued a notice that it received nine natural gas pipeline rate and accounting filings between March 24-25, 2026. The filings include two accounting proceedings (AC26-28-000, AC26-31-000) concerning journal entry amendments and fair value step-up assets, and seven rate filings (RP26-670-000 through RP26-676-000) covering semi-annual and annual retainage reports, negotiated rate agreements, and tariff revisions for various interstate pipeline operators.
Pipeline operators and interested parties should review the listed dockets and file interventions or protests per 18 CFR 385.211, 385.214, or 385.206 by the specified comment deadlines. Comment deadlines are 5:00 p.m. ET on March 31, 2026 for accounting proceedings, and April 6, 2026 for rate filings. Parties seeking to become formal intervenors must act by these deadlines; protests alone are insufficient to gain party status.
What to do next
- Review dockets AC26-28-000, AC26-31-000, and RP26-670-000 through RP26-676-000 to identify any rate or accounting changes affecting your interests
