The first of three Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) notices of inquiry relating to natural gas issues is an attempt to assess the implications of partial wellhead decontrol upon its regulation of interstate pipelines. The commission seeks two types of comments: new and innovative suggestions for regulating interstate transportation of natural gas under the Natural Gas Act and present programs under which interstate pipeline carriage is now provided for nonowner shippers. Specific comments are sought on reassessment of eligibility criteria, appropriate rate treatment for transportation actions and revenues, commission policies towards ''core'' market competition and protection, and issues related to mandated carriage for nonowner shippers. February 4, 1985 is the closing date for comments.
