Multiple pipeline rate filings (Jan–Mar 2025)
A number of natural gas pipeline companies filed rate changes that list effective dates on 1/31/2025, 2/1/2025, and 3/1/2025. These filings could change how much customers pay for natural gas service; public comments or protests for many of these dockets are due in February 2025 (for example, comment dates of 5:00 p.m. ET on 2/12/25 and 2/21/25).

Many pipelines submitted compliance filings to implement NAESB version 4.0 and Order No. 587-AA with listed effective date 8/1/2025. These filings concern standardized business rules and operational standards for pipelines that the Commission will consider, with comment deadlines commonly set for 5:00 p.m. ET on dates in February 2025 (for example, 2/12/25 and 2/18/25).
Public comment and protest deadlines provided
If you want to intervene, protest, or comment on any listed proceeding you must file by the specified comment dates and times (for example, many dockets list deadlines of 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on 2/12/2025, 2/18/2025, 2/21/2025, or 4/1/2025). Intervention is required to become a party to the proceeding; protests may be considered without intervention.
