# Gulf South Pipeline Company, LP; Notice of Compliance Filing
Take notice that on December 4, 2002, Gulf South Pipeline Company, LP (Gulf South) tendered for filing a response to the Commission's Order on Compliance filing issued November 4, 2002 (101 FERC ¶ 61,156 (2002).
Gulf South states that the appropriate cost-based price of the fuel gas Gulf South transferred to the cash pool was $2.16, and $1.98 as suggested in the order. Gulf South asserts that if the Commission rejects the compliance filing based upon a $2.16 transfer price, Gulf South seeks rehearing of the Commission's holding that an accounting adjustment made to comply with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) provides an appropriate basis to adjust the “historical average weighted cost of excess retained fuel.
Gulf South states that if the Commission does not accept $2.16 as the appropriate transfer price, Gulf South will suffer further financial loss because it will be precluded from recovering the actual cost of the fuel gas transferred to operate the cash pool service.
