Texas Eastern proposes to abandon: (i) approximately 25 miles of
24-inch diameter Line No. 1, located between Texas Eastern's Waynesburg
Compressor Station in Greene County, Pennsylvania and Texas Eastern's
Waynesburg Compressor Station in Greene County, Pennsylvania and Texas
Eastern's Uniontown Compressor Station in Fayette County, Pennsylvania;
(ii) approximately 120 miles of 20-inch diameter Line No. 2, located
between Texas Eastern's Somerset Compressor Station in Perry County,
Ohio and Texas Eastern's Waynesburg Compressor Station in Greene
County, Pennsylvania; and (iii) Texas Eastern's Wind Ridge Compressor
Station located in Greene County, Pennsylvania.
Texas Eastern states that the facilities proposed to be abandoned
have already been removed from active service and will not have any
effect on its existing natural gas services, tariffs or rate schedules.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said application should on or before November 3, 1995,
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 825 North Capitol
Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, a motion to intervene or a
protest in accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules
of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) 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 the 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 Procedure, 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 permission and approval for the proposed abandonment are
required by the public convenience and necessity. If a 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 Texas Eastern to appear or be represented at
the hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
