  <title><![CDATA[  Rate Regulation of Certain Underground Storage Facilities ]]></title>
  <link>http://thefederalregister.com/d.p/2005-12-29-E5-8031</link>
  <description><![CDATA[ The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) is 
proposing to amend its regulations to establish criteria for obtaining 
marketbased rates for storage services offered under part 284. First, 
the Commission is proposing to modify its marketpower analysis to 
better reflect the competitive alternatives to storage. Second, 
pursuant to Title III, Subtitle B, section 312 of the Energy Policy Act 
of 2005, the Commission is proposing rules to implement new section 
4(f) of the Natural Gas Act, to permit underground natural gas storage 
service providers that are unable to show that they lack market power 
to negotiate marketbased rates in circumstances where marketbased 
rates are in the public interest and necessary to encourage the 
construction of the storage capacity in the area needing storage 
services, and that customers are adequately protected. These revisions 
are intended to facilitate the development of new natural gas storage 
capacity while protecting customers.
