Forward Looking Statements

Certain matters contained in this report include “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements relate to anticipated financial performance, management’s plans and objectives for future operations, business prospects, outcome of regulatory proceedings, market conditions and other matters. We make these forward-looking statements in reliance on the safe harbor protections provided under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

All statements, other than statements of historical facts, included in this report that address activities, events or developments that we expect, believe or anticipate will exist or may occur in the future, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by various forms of words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “seeks,” “could,” “may,” “should,” “continues,” “estimates,” “expects,” “assumes,” “forecasts,” “intends,” “might,” “goals,” “objectives,” “targets,” “planned,” “potential,” “projects,” “scheduled,” “will,” “guidance,” “outlook,” “in service date” or other similar expressions. These statements are based on management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to management and include, among others, statements regarding:

• Amounts and nature of future capital expenditures;

• Expansion and growth of our business and operations;

• Financial condition and liquidity;

• Business strategy;

• Cash flow from operations or results of operations;

• Rate case filings;

• Natural gas prices, supply and demand; and

• Demand for our services.

Forward-looking statements are based on numerous assumptions, uncertainties, and risks that could cause future events or results to be materially different from those stated or implied in this report. Many of the factors that will

1

determine these results are beyond our ability to control or predict. Specific factors that could cause actual results to differ from results contemplated by the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:

• Availability of supplies, market demand, and volatility of prices;

• Inflation, interest rates, and general economic conditions (including future disruptions and volatility in the global credit markets and the impact of these events on our customers and suppliers);

• The strength and financial resources of our competitors and the effects of competition;

• Whether we are able to successfully identify, evaluate and execute investment opportunities;

• Development of alternative energy sources;

• The impact of operational and development hazards and unforeseen interruptions;

• Costs of, changes in, or the results of laws, government regulations (including safety and environmental regulations), environmental liabilities, litigation, and rate proceedings;

• Our allocated costs for defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement benefit plans sponsored by our affiliates;

• Changes in maintenance and construction costs;

• Changes in the current geopolitical situation;

• Our exposure to the credit risks of our customers and counterparties;

• Risks related to financing, including restrictions stemming from our debt agreements, future changes in our credit ratings and the availability and cost of capital;

• Risks associated with weather and natural phenomena including climate conditions;

• Acts of terrorism, including cybersecurity threats and related disruptions; and

• Additional risks described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

Given the uncertainties and risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement, we caution investors not to unduly rely on our forward-looking statements. We disclaim any obligations to and do not intend to update the above list or to announce publicly the result of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements to reflect future events or developments.

In addition to causing our actual results to differ, the factors listed above and referred to below may cause our intentions to change from those statements of intention set forth in this report. Such changes in our intentions may also cause our results to differ. We may change our intentions, at any time and without notice, based upon changes in such factors, our assumptions, or otherwise.

Because forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, we caution that there are important factors, in addition to those listed above, that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. For a detailed discussion of those factors, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION.

In this report, Transco (which includes Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC and unless the context otherwise requires, all of our majority-owned subsidiaries) is at times referred to in the first person as “we,” “us” or “our.”

Transco is owned, through Williams Partners Operating LLC (WPO), by Williams Partners L.P. (WPZ), a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership, which is consolidated by The Williams Companies, Inc. (Williams). At June 30, 2014, Williams holds an approximate 66 percent interest in WPZ, comprised of an approximate 64 percent limited partner interest and all of WPZ’s 2 percent general partner interest.

General.

The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of the subsidiaries we control. Companies in which we and our subsidiaries own 20 percent to 50 percent of the voting common stock or otherwise exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of the company are accounted for under the equity method. The equity method investments as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consist of Cardinal Pipeline Company, LLC (Cardinal) with an ownership interest of approximately 45 percent and Pine Needle LNG Company, LLC (Pine Needle) with an ownership interest of 35 percent. We received distributions associated with our equity method investments totaling $4.4 million in each of the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Included in the distributions is a $0.5 million return of capital from Pine Needle in 2014.

The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements have been prepared from our books and records. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments and others which, in the opinion of our management, are necessary to present fairly our interim financial statements. These condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A reclassification within investing activities between Property, plant and equipment additions, net of equity AFUDC* and Contributions and advances for construction costs of $20.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, has been made to the 2013 financial statements to conform to the 2014 presentation.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 establishing Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (ASC 606). ASC 606 establishes a comprehensive new revenue recognition model designed to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services and requires significantly enhanced revenue disclosures. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within the reporting period. Accordingly, Transco will adopt this standard in the first quarter 2017. ASC 606 allows either full retrospective or modified retrospective transition and early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on our consolidated financial statements.

2. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS.

Rate Matters.

General rate case (Docket No. RP12-993) On August 31, 2012, we submitted to the FERC a general rate filing principally designed to recover increased costs and to comply with the terms of the settlement in our Docket No. RP06-569 rate proceeding (see below) which required us to file a rate case no later than August 31, 2012. On September 28, 2012, the FERC issued an order accepting our filing subject to the outcome of a hearing. The rates for certain services that were proposed as overall rate decreases became effective October 1, 2012 and the increased rates became effective March 1, 2013. All issues in this proceeding have been resolved by a stipulation and agreement (Agreement) approved by the FERC. Pursuant to its terms, the Agreement became effective on March 1, 2014 and refunds of approximately $118 million were issued on April 18, 2014.

General rate case (Docket No. RP06-569) On August 31, 2006, we submitted to the FERC a general rate filing principally designed to recover increased costs. The rates became effective March 1, 2007, subject to refund and the outcome of a hearing. All issues in this proceeding except one have been resolved by settlement.

The one issue reserved for litigation or further settlement relates to our proposal to change the design of the rates for service under one of our storage rate schedules, which was implemented subject to refund on March 1, 2007. A hearing on that issue was held before a FERC Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) in July 2008. In November 2008, the ALJ issued an initial decision in which he determined that our proposed incremental rate design is unjust and unreasonable. On January 21, 2010, the FERC reversed the ALJ’s initial decision, and approved our proposed incremental rate design. Certain parties sought rehearing of the FERC’s order and, on April 2, 2012, the FERC denied the rehearing request. On June 1, 2012, one of the parties filed an appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit (D.C. Circuit). On February 21, 2014, the D.C. Circuit issued an opinion that vacated and remanded the FERC's order because the FERC did not adequately support its conclusions. We intend to continue to pursue approval of our proposed rate design. If we are unsuccessful, we believe any refunds would not be material to our results of operations.

Environmental Matters.

We have had studies underway to test some of our facilities for the presence of toxic and hazardous substances to determine to what extent, if any, remediation may be necessary. We have responded to data requests from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and state agencies regarding such potential contamination of certain of our sites. On the basis of the findings to date, we estimate that environmental assessment and remediation costs under various federal and state statutes will total approximately $6 million to $8 million (including both expense and capital expenditures), measured on an undiscounted basis, and will be spent over the next three to five years. This estimate depends on a number of assumptions concerning the scope of remediation that will be required at certain locations and the cost of the remedial measures. We are conducting environmental assessments and implementing a variety of remedial measures that may result in increases or decreases in the total estimated costs. At June 30, 2014, we had a balance of approximately $3.3 million for the expense portion of these estimated costs recorded in current liabilities ($2.3 million) and other long-term liabilities ($1.0 million) in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. At December 31, 2013, we had a balance of approximately $4.1 million for the expense portion of these estimated costs recorded in current liabilities ($2.3 million) and other long-term liabilities ($1.8 million) in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Although we discontinued the use of lubricating oils containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the 1970s, we have discovered residual PCB contamination in equipment and soils at certain gas compressor station sites. We have worked closely with the EPA and state regulatory authorities regarding PCB issues, and we have a program to assess and remediate such conditions where they exist. In addition, we commenced negotiations with certain environmental authorities and other parties concerning investigative and remedial actions relative to potential mercury contamination at certain gas metering sites. All such costs are included in the $6 million to $8 million range discussed above.

We have been identified as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at various Superfund and state waste disposal sites. Based on present volumetric estimates and other factors, our estimated aggregate exposure for remediation of these sites is less than $0.5 million. The estimated remediation costs for all of these sites are included in the $6 million

8

to $8 million range discussed above. Liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and applicable state law can be joint and several with other PRPs. Although volumetric allocation is a factor in assessing liability, it is not necessarily determinative; thus, the ultimate liability could be substantially greater than the amounts described above.

In March 2008, the EPA promulgated a new, lower National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for ground-level ozone. However, in September 2009, the EPA announced it would reconsider the 2008 NAAQS for ground level ozone to ensure that the standards were clearly grounded in science, and were protective of both public health and the environment. As a result, the EPA delayed designation of new eight-hour ozone non-attainment areas under the 2008 standards until the reconsideration is complete. In January 2010, the EPA proposed to further reduce the ground-level ozone NAAQS from the March 2008 levels. In September 2011, the EPA announced that it was proceeding with required actions to implement the 2008 ozone standard and area designations. In May 2012, the EPA completed designation of new eight-hour ozone non-attainment areas. Several Transco facilities are located in 2008 ozone non-attainment areas; however, each facility has been previously subjected to federal and/or state emission control requirements implemented to address preceding ozone standards. To date, no new federal actions have been proposed to mandate additional emission controls at these facilities. Pursuant to recently proposed state regulatory actions associated with implementation of the 2008 ozone standard, we anticipate that some Transco facilities may be subject to increased controls within five years. As a result, the cost of additions to property, plant, and equipment is expected to increase. We are unable at this time to estimate with any certainty the cost of additions that may be required to meet the proposed regulations.

On January 22, 2010, the EPA set a new one-hour nitrogen dioxide (NO2) NAAQS. The effective date of the new NO2 standard was April 12, 2010. On January 20, 2012, the EPA determined pursuant to available information that no area in the country is violating the 2010 NO2 NAAQS and thus designated all areas of the country as “unclassifiable/attainment.” Also, at that time, the EPA noted its plan to deploy an expanded NO2 monitoring network beginning in 2013. However, on October 5, 2012, the EPA proposed a graduated implementation of the monitoring network between January 1, 2014 and January 1, 2017. Once three years of data is collected from the new monitoring network, the EPA will reassess attainment status with the one-hour NO2 NAAQS. Until that time, the EPA or states may require ambient air quality modeling on a case by case basis to demonstrate compliance with the NO2 standard. Because we are unable to predict the outcome of the EPA’s or states’ future assessment using the new monitoring network, we are unable to estimate the cost of additions that may be required to meet this regulation.

We consider prudently incurred environmental assessment and remediation costs and the costs associated with compliance with environmental standards to be recoverable through rates. To date, we have been permitted recovery of environmental costs, and it is our intent to continue seeking recovery of such costs through future rate filings. As a result, as estimated costs of environmental assessment and remediation are incurred, they are recorded as regulatory assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet until collected through rates. At June 30, 2014, we had a balance of approximately $1.2 million of uncollected environmental related regulatory assets recorded in current assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. At December 31, 2013, we had a balance of approximately $1.8 million of uncollected environmental related regulatory assets recorded in current assets ($1.2 million) and other assets ($0.6 million) in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

By letter dated September 20, 2007, the EPA required us to provide information regarding natural gas compressor stations in the states of Mississippi and Alabama as part of the EPA’s investigation of our compliance with the Federal Clean Air Act (Act). By January 2008, we responded with the requested information. By Notices of Violation (NOVs) dated March 28, 2008, the EPA found us to be in violation of the requirements of the Act with respect to these compressor stations. We met with the EPA in May 2008 to discuss the allegations contained in the NOVs; in June 2008, we submitted to the EPA a written response denying the allegations. The EPA has requested additional information pertaining to these compressor stations and in May 2011, we submitted information in response to the EPA’s latest request. In August, 2010, the EPA requested, and we provided, similar information for a compressor station in Maryland. Since 2011, we have not received any additional requests from the EPA for information related to these facilities.

Other Matters.

Various other proceedings are pending against us and are considered incidental to our operations.

Summary.

We estimate that for all matters for which we are able to reasonably estimate a range of loss, including those noted above and others that are not individually significant, our aggregate reasonably possible losses beyond amounts accrued for all of our contingent liabilities are immaterial to our expected future annual results of operations, liquidity and financial position. These calculations have been made without consideration of any potential recovery from third parties. We have disclosed all significant matters for which we are unable to reasonably estimate a range of possible loss.

3. DEBT AND FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS.

Credit Facility.

We along with WPZ and Northwest Pipeline LLC (Northwest) are co-borrowers under a $2.5 billion credit facility. Total letter of credit capacity available to WPZ under the $2.5 billion credit facility is $1.3 billion. We may borrow up to $500 million under the credit facility to the extent not otherwise utilized by WPZ and Northwest. At June 30, 2014, no letters of credit have been issued and no loans are outstanding under our credit facility.

WPZ participates in a commercial paper program and WPZ management considers amounts outstanding under this program to be a reduction of available capacity under the credit facility. The program allows a maximum outstanding amount at any time of $2 billion of unsecured commercial paper notes. At June 30, 2014, there was no outstanding commercial paper.

4. ARO TRUST.

Available-for-Sale Investments.

We are entitled to collect in rates the amounts necessary to fund our ARO. We deposit monthly, into an external trust account, the revenues specifically designated for ARO. We established the ARO trust account (ARO Trust) on June 30, 2008. The ARO Trust carries a moderate risk portfolio. We measure the financial instruments held in our ARO Trust at fair value. However, in accordance with the ASC Topic 980, Regulated Operations, both realized and unrealized gains and losses of the ARO Trust are recorded as regulatory assets or liabilities.

Effective March 1, 2013, the annual funding obligation is approximately $36.4 million, with deposits made monthly.

Investments in available-for-sale securities within the ARO Trust at fair value were as follows (in millions):

	June 30, 2014				December 31, 2013
	Amortized Cost Basis		Fair Value		Amortized Cost Basis		Fair Value
Cash and Money Market Funds	$	4.0	$	4.0	$	6.5	$	6.5
U.S. Equity Funds	11.7		14.9		8.0		11.1
International Equity Funds	6.2		7.2		4.2		4.9
Municipal Bond Funds	15.2		15.6		10.2		10.2
Total	$	37.1	$	41.7	$	28.9	$	32.7

5. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS.

The following table presents, by level within the fair value hierarchy, certain of our financial assets and liabilities. The carrying values of cash, short-term financial assets (advances to affiliate) that have variable interest rates, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. Therefore, these assets and liabilities are not presented in the following table.

Fair Value of Methods.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

ARO Trust investments — We deposit a portion of our collected rates, pursuant to the Agreement in the Docket No. RP12-993 rate case settlement, into the ARO Trust which is specifically designated to fund future asset retirement obligations. The ARO Trust invests in a portfolio of actively traded mutual funds that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on quoted prices in an active market, are classified as available-for-sale, and are reported in Other Assets-Other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. However, both realized and unrealized gains and losses are ultimately recorded as regulatory assets or liabilities. See Note 4 for more information regarding the ARO Trust.

Notes receivable — The disclosed fair value of our notes receivable is determined by an income approach which considers the underlying contract amounts and our assessment of our ability to recover these amounts. The current portion is reported in Trade and other receivables, and the noncurrent portion is reported in Other Assets-Other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Long-term debt — The disclosed fair value of our long-term debt is determined by a market approach using broker quoted indicative period-end bond prices. The quoted prices are based on observable transactions in less active markets for our debt or similar instruments.

Reclassifications of fair value between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, if applicable, are made at the end of each quarter. No transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013.

6. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.

We are a participant in WPZ’s cash management program, and we make advances to and receive advances from WPZ. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our advances to WPZ totaled approximately $466.8 million and $526.4 million, respectively. These advances are represented by demand notes and are classified as Current Assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Advances are stated at the historical carrying amounts. Interest income is recognized when chargeable and collectability is reasonably assured. The interest rate on these intercompany demand notes is based upon the daily overnight investment rate paid on WPZ’s excess cash at the end of each month. At June 30, 2014, the interest rate was 0.01 percent.

Included in our Operating Revenues in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income are revenues received from affiliates of $1.5 million and $2.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $6.6 million and $12.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The rates charged to provide sales and services to affiliates are the same as those that are charged to similarly-situated nonaffiliated customers.

Included in our Cost of natural gas sales in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income are cost of gas purchased from affiliates of $3.4 million and $6.8 million, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $1.6 million and $4.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. All gas purchases are made at market or contract prices.

We have no employees. Services necessary to operate our business are provided to us by Williams and certain affiliates of Williams. We reimburse Williams and its affiliates for all direct and indirect expenses incurred or payments made (including salary, bonus, incentive compensation and benefits) in connection with these services. Employees of Williams also provide general, administrative and management services to us, and we are charged for certain administrative expenses incurred by Williams. These charges are either directly identifiable or allocated to our assets. Direct charges are for goods and services provided by Williams at our request. Allocated charges are based on a three-factor formula, which considers revenues; property, plant and equipment; and payroll. In management’s estimation, the allocation methodologies used are reasonable and result in a reasonable allocation to us of our costs of doing business incurred by Williams. We were billed $74.5 million and $149.7 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $78.9 million and $153.5 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, for these services. Such expenses are primarily included in Administrative and general and Operation and maintenance expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

We provide services to certain of our affiliates. We recorded reductions in operating expenses for services provided to and reimbursed by our affiliates of $1.9 million and $3.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $1.9 million and $3.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. In the first quarter of 2014, pursuant to construction agreements, we received pre-payments from Williams Field Services Group, LLC of $4.2 million associated with capital projects.

We made equity distributions to WPO totaling $235.0 million and $123.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. During July 2014, we made an additional distribution to WPO of $83.0 million. WPO made contributions to us totaling $94.0 million and $107.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to fund a portion of our expenditures for additions to property, plant and equipment. In July 2014, WPO made an additional $70.0 million contribution to us.

7. OTHER.

For the six months ended June 30, 2014, we capitalized $3.5 million of project feasibility cost associated with various projects, which had been expensed in prior periods in Other expense, net, upon determining that the projects were probable of development.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

General.

The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes and Management’s Discussion and Analysis contained in Items 7 and 8 of our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K and with the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes contained in this Form 10-Q.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

Operating Income and Net Income.

Operating income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $249.4 million compared to $212.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2014 was $217.3 million compared to $187.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The increase in Operating income of $36.7 million (17.3 percent) was primarily due to higher Natural gas transportation revenues in the first six months of 2014 compared to the same period in 2013, partly offset by an increase in Operating Costs and Expenses, as discussed below. The increase in Net income of $30.3 million (16.2 percent) was mostly attributable to the increase in Operating income partly offset by an unfavorable change in net expenses in Other (Income) and Other Expenses, as discussed below.

Sales Revenues.

Operating revenues: Natural gas sales decreased $14.6 million (24.1 percent) for the six months ended June 30, 2014 compared to the same period in 2013. The decrease was due to lower cash-out sales. Cash-out sales are offset in our cost of natural gas sold and therefore had no impact on our operating income or results of operations.

Transportation Revenues.

Operating revenues: Natural gas transportation for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased $44.8 million (8.3 percent) over the same period in 2013. The increase was primarily due to higher transportation reservation revenues related to new incremental projects of $32.2 million ($26.7 million from our Northeast Supply Link project placed in service in August 2013 and $5.5 million from our Mid-South project Phase 2 placed in service in June 2013), higher firm transportation backhaul revenues of $6.2 million and higher commodity revenues of $4.8 million.

Operating Costs and Expenses.

Excluding the Cost of natural gas sales, which is directly offset in revenues, of $46.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and $60.6 million for the comparable period in 2013, our operating costs and expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 increased approximately $8.1 million (2.0 percent) from the comparable period in 2013. This increase was primarily attributable to a $6.4 million increase in Depreciation and amortization costs due to expansion projects placed into service in mid-2013.

Other (Income) and Other Expenses.

Other (income) and other expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2014 had an unfavorable change of $6.5 million (25.3 percent) over the same period in 2013 primarily due to $3.0 million decrease in AFUDC, $2.0 million lower amount of reimbursements for tax gross-up related to projects and $1.9 million increase in interest expense primarily due to interest on rate refunds.

Filing of Rate Case.

On August 31, 2012, we filed a general rate case with the FERC for an overall increase in rates. In September 2012, the FERC issued an order accepting our filing subject to the outcome of a hearing. The rates for certain services that were proposed as overall rate decreases became effective October 1, 2012, and the increased rates became effective March 1, 2013. All issues in this proceeding have been resolved by a stipulation and agreement (Agreement) approved by the FERC. Pursuant to its terms, the Agreement became effective March 1, 2014 and refunds of approximately $118 million were issued on April 18, 2014.

13

Capital Expenditures.

Our capital expenditures for the six months ended June 30, 2014 were $220.0 million, compared to $278.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013. The $58.8 million decrease is primarily due to lower spending on expansion projects in 2014. Our capital expenditures estimate for 2014 and future capital projects are discussed in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following describes those projects and certain new capital projects proposed by us.

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures.

Our management, including our Senior Vice President — Atlantic-Gulf and our Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act) (Disclosure Controls) or our internal controls over financial reporting (Internal Controls) will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. We monitor our Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls and make modifications as necessary; our intent in this regard is that the Disclosure Controls and Internal Controls will be modified as systems change and conditions warrant.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our Disclosure Controls was performed as of the end of the period covered by this report. This evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Senior Vice President — Atlantic-Gulf and our Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer. Based upon that evaluation, our Senior Vice President — Atlantic-Gulf and our Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer concluded that these Disclosure Controls are effective at a reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes during the second quarter of 2014 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our Internal Controls over financial reporting.

ARO TRUST.

Available-for-Sale Investments.

We are entitled to collect in rates the amounts necessary to fund our ARO. We deposit monthly, into an external trust account, the revenues specifically designated for ARO. We established the ARO trust account (ARO Trust) on June 30, 2008. The ARO Trust carries a moderate risk portfolio. We measure the financial instruments held in our ARO Trust at fair value. However, in accordance with the ASC Topic 980, Regulated Operations, both realized and unrealized gains and losses of the ARO Trust are recorded as regulatory assets or liabilities.

Effective March 1, 2013, the annual funding obligation is approximately $36.4 million, with deposits made monthly.

Investments in available-for-sale securities within the ARO Trust at fair value were as follows (in millions):

Basis of Presentation

BASIS OF PRESENTATION.

In this report, Transco (which includes Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC and unless the context otherwise requires, all of our majority-owned subsidiaries) is at times referred to in the first person as “we,” “us” or “our.”

Transco is owned, through Williams Partners Operating LLC (WPO), by Williams Partners L.P. (WPZ), a publicly traded Delaware limited partnership, which is consolidated by The Williams Companies, Inc. (Williams). At June 30, 2014, Williams holds an approximate 66 percent interest in WPZ, comprised of an approximate 64 percent limited partner interest and all of WPZ’s 2 percent general partner interest.

General.

The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements include our accounts and the accounts of the subsidiaries we control. Companies in which we and our subsidiaries own 20 percent to 50 percent of the voting common stock or otherwise exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of the company are accounted for under the equity method. The equity method investments as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 consist of Cardinal Pipeline Company, LLC (Cardinal) with an ownership interest of approximately 45 percent and Pine Needle LNG Company, LLC (Pine Needle) with an ownership interest of 35 percent. We received distributions associated with our equity method investments totaling $4.4 million in each of the six months ended June 30, 2014 and June 30, 2013, respectively. Included in the distributions is a $0.5 million return of capital from Pine Needle in 2014.

The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements have been prepared from our books and records. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted in this Form 10-Q pursuant to SEC rules and regulations. The condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements include all normal recurring adjustments and others which, in the opinion of our management, are necessary to present fairly our interim financial statements. These condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated unaudited financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

A reclassification within investing activities between Property, plant and equipment additions, net of equity AFUDC* and Contributions and advances for construction costs of $20.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2013, has been made to the 2013 financial statements to conform to the 2014 presentation.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 establishing Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (ASC 606). ASC 606 establishes a comprehensive new revenue recognition model designed to depict the transfer of goods or services to a customer in an amount that reflects the consideration the entity expects to be entitled to receive in exchange for those goods or services and requires significantly enhanced revenue disclosures. The standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within the reporting period. Accordingly, Transco will adopt this standard in the first quarter 2017. ASC 606 allows either full retrospective or modified retrospective transition and early adoption is not permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of this new standard on our consolidated financial statements.

Contingent Liabilities and Commitments

CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS.

Rate Matters.

General rate case (Docket No. RP12-993) On August 31, 2012, we submitted to the FERC a general rate filing principally designed to recover increased costs and to comply with the terms of the settlement in our Docket No. RP06-569 rate proceeding (see below) which required us to file a rate case no later than August 31, 2012. On September 28, 2012, the FERC issued an order accepting our filing subject to the outcome of a hearing. The rates for certain services that were proposed as overall rate decreases became effective October 1, 2012 and the increased rates became effective March 1, 2013. All issues in this proceeding have been resolved by a stipulation and agreement (Agreement) approved by the FERC. Pursuant to its terms, the Agreement became effective on March 1, 2014 and refunds of approximately $118 million were issued on April 18, 2014.

General rate case (Docket No. RP06-569) On August 31, 2006, we submitted to the FERC a general rate filing principally designed to recover increased costs. The rates became effective March 1, 2007, subject to refund and the outcome of a hearing. All issues in this proceeding except one have been resolved by settlement.

The one issue reserved for litigation or further settlement relates to our proposal to change the design of the rates for service under one of our storage rate schedules, which was implemented subject to refund on March 1, 2007. A hearing on that issue was held before a FERC Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) in July 2008. In November 2008, the ALJ issued an initial decision in which he determined that our proposed incremental rate design is unjust and unreasonable. On January 21, 2010, the FERC reversed the ALJ’s initial decision, and approved our proposed incremental rate design. Certain parties sought rehearing of the FERC’s order and, on April 2, 2012, the FERC denied the rehearing request. On June 1, 2012, one of the parties filed an appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit (D.C. Circuit). On February 21, 2014, the D.C. Circuit issued an opinion that vacated and remanded the FERC's order because the FERC did not adequately support its conclusions. We intend to continue to pursue approval of our proposed rate design. If we are unsuccessful, we believe any refunds would not be material to our results of operations.

Environmental Matters.

We have had studies underway to test some of our facilities for the presence of toxic and hazardous substances to determine to what extent, if any, remediation may be necessary. We have responded to data requests from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and state agencies regarding such potential contamination of certain of our sites. On the basis of the findings to date, we estimate that environmental assessment and remediation costs under various federal and state statutes will total approximately $6 million to $8 million (including both expense and capital expenditures), measured on an undiscounted basis, and will be spent over the next three to five years. This estimate depends on a number of assumptions concerning the scope of remediation that will be required at certain locations and the cost of the remedial measures. We are conducting environmental assessments and implementing a variety of remedial measures that may result in increases or decreases in the total estimated costs. At June 30, 2014, we had a balance of approximately $3.3 million for the expense portion of these estimated costs recorded in current liabilities ($2.3 million) and other long-term liabilities ($1.0 million) in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. At December 31, 2013, we had a balance of approximately $4.1 million for the expense portion of these estimated costs recorded in current liabilities ($2.3 million) and other long-term liabilities ($1.8 million) in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Although we discontinued the use of lubricating oils containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the 1970s, we have discovered residual PCB contamination in equipment and soils at certain gas compressor station sites. We have worked closely with the EPA and state regulatory authorities regarding PCB issues, and we have a program to assess and remediate such conditions where they exist. In addition, we commenced negotiations with certain environmental authorities and other parties concerning investigative and remedial actions relative to potential mercury contamination at certain gas metering sites. All such costs are included in the $6 million to $8 million range discussed above.

We have been identified as a potentially responsible party (PRP) at various Superfund and state waste disposal sites. Based on present volumetric estimates and other factors, our estimated aggregate exposure for remediation of these sites is less than $0.5 million. The estimated remediation costs for all of these sites are included in the $6 million to $8 million range discussed above. Liability under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act and applicable state law can be joint and several with other PRPs. Although volumetric allocation is a factor in assessing liability, it is not necessarily determinative; thus, the ultimate liability could be substantially greater than the amounts described above.

In March 2008, the EPA promulgated a new, lower National Ambient Air Quality Standard (NAAQS) for ground-level ozone. However, in September 2009, the EPA announced it would reconsider the 2008 NAAQS for ground level ozone to ensure that the standards were clearly grounded in science, and were protective of both public health and the environment. As a result, the EPA delayed designation of new eight-hour ozone non-attainment areas under the 2008 standards until the reconsideration is complete. In January 2010, the EPA proposed to further reduce the ground-level ozone NAAQS from the March 2008 levels. In September 2011, the EPA announced that it was proceeding with required actions to implement the 2008 ozone standard and area designations. In May 2012, the EPA completed designation of new eight-hour ozone non-attainment areas. Several Transco facilities are located in 2008 ozone non-attainment areas; however, each facility has been previously subjected to federal and/or state emission control requirements implemented to address preceding ozone standards. To date, no new federal actions have been proposed to mandate additional emission controls at these facilities. Pursuant to recently proposed state regulatory actions associated with implementation of the 2008 ozone standard, we anticipate that some Transco facilities may be subject to increased controls within five years. As a result, the cost of additions to property, plant, and equipment is expected to increase. We are unable at this time to estimate with any certainty the cost of additions that may be required to meet the proposed regulations.

On January 22, 2010, the EPA set a new one-hour nitrogen dioxide (NO2) NAAQS. The effective date of the new NO2 standard was April 12, 2010. On January 20, 2012, the EPA determined pursuant to available information that no area in the country is violating the 2010 NO2 NAAQS and thus designated all areas of the country as “unclassifiable/attainment.” Also, at that time, the EPA noted its plan to deploy an expanded NO2 monitoring network beginning in 2013. However, on October 5, 2012, the EPA proposed a graduated implementation of the monitoring network between January 1, 2014 and January 1, 2017. Once three years of data is collected from the new monitoring network, the EPA will reassess attainment status with the one-hour NO2 NAAQS. Until that time, the EPA or states may require ambient air quality modeling on a case by case basis to demonstrate compliance with the NO2 standard. Because we are unable to predict the outcome of the EPA’s or states’ future assessment using the new monitoring network, we are unable to estimate the cost of additions that may be required to meet this regulation.

We consider prudently incurred environmental assessment and remediation costs and the costs associated with compliance with environmental standards to be recoverable through rates. To date, we have been permitted recovery of environmental costs, and it is our intent to continue seeking recovery of such costs through future rate filings. As a result, as estimated costs of environmental assessment and remediation are incurred, they are recorded as regulatory assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet until collected through rates. At June 30, 2014, we had a balance of approximately $1.2 million of uncollected environmental related regulatory assets recorded in current assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. At December 31, 2013, we had a balance of approximately $1.8 million of uncollected environmental related regulatory assets recorded in current assets ($1.2 million) and other assets ($0.6 million) in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

By letter dated September 20, 2007, the EPA required us to provide information regarding natural gas compressor stations in the states of Mississippi and Alabama as part of the EPA’s investigation of our compliance with the Federal Clean Air Act (Act). By January 2008, we responded with the requested information. By Notices of Violation (NOVs) dated March 28, 2008, the EPA found us to be in violation of the requirements of the Act with respect to these compressor stations. We met with the EPA in May 2008 to discuss the allegations contained in the NOVs; in June 2008, we submitted to the EPA a written response denying the allegations. The EPA has requested additional information pertaining to these compressor stations and in May 2011, we submitted information in response to the EPA’s latest request. In August, 2010, the EPA requested, and we provided, similar information for a compressor station in Maryland. Since 2011, we have not received any additional requests from the EPA for information related to these facilities.

Other Matters.

Various other proceedings are pending against us and are considered incidental to our operations.

Summary.

We estimate that for all matters for which we are able to reasonably estimate a range of loss, including those noted above and others that are not individually significant, our aggregate reasonably possible losses beyond amounts accrued for all of our contingent liabilities are immaterial to our expected future annual results of operations, liquidity and financial position. These calculations have been made without consideration of any potential recovery from third parties. We have disclosed all significant matters for which we are unable to reasonably estimate a range of possible loss.

TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.

We are a participant in WPZ’s cash management program, and we make advances to and receive advances from WPZ. At June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, our advances to WPZ totaled approximately $466.8 million and $526.4 million, respectively. These advances are represented by demand notes and are classified as Current Assets in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Advances are stated at the historical carrying amounts. Interest income is recognized when chargeable and collectability is reasonably assured. The interest rate on these intercompany demand notes is based upon the daily overnight investment rate paid on WPZ’s excess cash at the end of each month. At June 30, 2014, the interest rate was 0.01 percent.

Included in our Operating Revenues in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income are revenues received from affiliates of $1.5 million and $2.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $6.6 million and $12.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The rates charged to provide sales and services to affiliates are the same as those that are charged to similarly-situated nonaffiliated customers.

Included in our Cost of natural gas sales in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income are cost of gas purchased from affiliates of $3.4 million and $6.8 million, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $1.6 million and $4.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. All gas purchases are made at market or contract prices.

We have no employees. Services necessary to operate our business are provided to us by Williams and certain affiliates of Williams. We reimburse Williams and its affiliates for all direct and indirect expenses incurred or payments made (including salary, bonus, incentive compensation and benefits) in connection with these services. Employees of Williams also provide general, administrative and management services to us, and we are charged for certain administrative expenses incurred by Williams. These charges are either directly identifiable or allocated to our assets. Direct charges are for goods and services provided by Williams at our request. Allocated charges are based on a three-factor formula, which considers revenues; property, plant and equipment; and payroll. In management’s estimation, the allocation methodologies used are reasonable and result in a reasonable allocation to us of our costs of doing business incurred by Williams. We were billed $74.5 million and $149.7 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $78.9 million and $153.5 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively, for these services. Such expenses are primarily included in Administrative and general and Operation and maintenance expenses in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income.

We provide services to certain of our affiliates. We recorded reductions in operating expenses for services provided to and reimbursed by our affiliates of $1.9 million and $3.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014, respectively, and $1.9 million and $3.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. In the first quarter of 2014, pursuant to construction agreements, we received pre-payments from Williams Field Services Group, LLC of $4.2 million associated with capital projects.

We made equity distributions to WPO totaling $235.0 million and $123.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. During July 2014, we made an additional distribution to WPO of $83.0 million. WPO made contributions to us totaling $94.0 million and $107.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, to fund a portion of our expenditures for additions to property, plant and equipment. In July 2014, WPO made an additional $70.0 million contribution to us.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS.

The following table presents, by level within the fair value hierarchy, certain of our financial assets and liabilities. The carrying values of cash, short-term financial assets (advances to affiliate) that have variable interest rates, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

Fair Value of Methods.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

ARO Trust investments — We deposit a portion of our collected rates, pursuant to the Agreement in the Docket No. RP12-993 rate case settlement, into the ARO Trust which is specifically designated to fund future asset retirement obligations. The ARO Trust invests in a portfolio of actively traded mutual funds that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on quoted prices in an active market, are classified as available-for-sale, and are reported in Other Assets-Other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. However, both realized and unrealized gains and losses are ultimately recorded as regulatory assets or liabilities. See Note 4 for more information regarding the ARO Trust.

Notes receivable — The disclosed fair value of our notes receivable is determined by an income approach which considers the underlying contract amounts and our assessment of our ability to recover these amounts. The current portion is reported in Trade and other receivables, and the noncurrent portion is reported in Other Assets-Other in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Long-term debt — The disclosed fair value of our long-term debt is determined by a market approach using broker quoted indicative period-end bond prices. The quoted prices are based on observable transactions in less active markets for our debt or similar instruments.

Reclassifications of fair value between Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, if applicable, are made at the end of each quarter. No transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 occurred during the six months ended June 30, 2014 or 2013.
