Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are submitting this letter on behalf of our client, TC PipeLines, LP (the “Company”), in response to a comment from the staff (the “Staff”) of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), received by letter dated July 2, 2014, relating to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed with the Commission on June 4, 2014 (the “Registration Statement”).
The numbered paragraph below corresponds to the numbered comment in the Staff’s letter and the Staff’s comment is presented in bold italics.
Prospectus, cover page
1. We note your intention to include the market price in a prospectus supplement. However, consistent with Instruction 2 to Item 501(b), if you will offer the securities at the market price, the prospectus should state as much at the time of effectiveness. Please revise to disclose the market and market price as of the latest practicable date.
The Company has revised the cover page of the prospectus to include the market and market price of the Company’s common units as of the latest practicable date. The revised prospectus is being filed as part of Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement.
