Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corp.; Notice of Application

Take notice that on January 11, 1996, Transcontinental Gas Pipe
Line Corporation (Transco), Post Office Box 1396, Houston, Texas 77251
filed an
[[Page 1755]]
application in Docket No. CP96-134-000 pursuant to Section 7(c) of the
Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission's (Commission) regulations, for a certificate of public
convenience and necessity authorizing the construction and operation of
taps on Transco's mainline system in Guilford County, North Carolina to
connect with inlet and outlet pipelines to be constructed by Pine
Needle LNG Company, LLC (Pine Needle) as part of its liquefied natural
gas (LNG) storage proposal filed in Docket No. CP96-52-000. Further
details on Transco's proposal are contained in the application which is
on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
Specifically, Transco proposes to install two 10-inch taps which
will be used for deliveries of gas from Transco's system into Pine
Needle's 10-inch inlet pipeline, and three 20-inch taps which will be
used for receipts of gas into Transco's system from Pine Needle's 24-
inch outlet pipeline. The taps will be located at milepost 1356.95 on
Transco's mainline system. Transco says Pine Needle will reimburse
Transco for the cost of the taps which Transco estimates at $707,679.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make a protest with reference
to said application should on or before January 24, 1996, file with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington, DC 20426, a motion to
intervene or a protest in accordance with the requirements of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 or
385.214) and the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10).
All Protests filed with the Commission will be considered by it in
determining the appropriate action to be taken but will not serve to
make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to
become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a party in any
hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in accordance with the
Commission's Rules.
Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in
and subject to jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedures, a hearing will be
held without further notice before the Commission or its designee on
this application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time
required herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter
finds that a grant of the certificate is required by the public
convenience and necessity. If motion for leave to intervene is timely
filed or if the Commission on its own motion believes that a formal
hearing is required, further notice of such hearing will be duly given.
Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised,
it will be unnecessary for Transco to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
