The Brooklyn Union Gas Company v. Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 
Corporation; Notice of Complaint

September 27, 1996.
    Take notice that on September 24, 1996, pursuant to Section 5(a) of 
the Natural Gas Act, 15 U.S.C. Sec. 717d, and Rule 206 of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.206, The 
Brooklyn Union Gas Company (Brooklyn Union) submitted for filing a 
complaint against Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation (Transco).
    Brooklyn Union argues that Transco has, without color of authority 
and in derogation of Brooklyn Union's rights and entitlements under 
Transco's FERC Gas Tariff and applicable Commission orders, refused to 
transport and deliver quantities of natural gas to lawfully nominated 
secondary delivery points designated by Brooklyn Union.

[[Page 51693]]

    Brooklyn Union seeks a Commission order directing Transco to permit 
Brooklyn Union and other similarly situated shippers in Zone 6 under 
Transco's Part 284 transportation rate schedules, to nominate, schedule 
and deliver gas on a secondary basis at Transco's Leidy, Pennsylvania 
and Wharton, Pennsylvania delivery points and any other point where 
Transco may require delivery of gas for subsequent injection pursuant 
to Rate Schedule GSS.
    Any person desiring to be heard or protest said complaint should 
file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, in 
accordance with Section 385.214 and 385.211 of the Commission's Rules 
of Practice and Procedure. All such motions or protests must be filed 
on or before October 25, 1996. Protests will be considered by the 
Commission in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but will 
not serve to make protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person 
wishing to become a party must file a motion to intervene. Copies of 
this filing are on file with the Commission and are available for 
public inspection in the Public Reference Room. Answers to this 
complaint shall be due on or before October 25, 1996.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
