Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP98-61-000]
Southern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Application
November 17, 1997.
Take notice that on October 31, 1997, as supplemented on November
7, 1997, Southern Natural Gas Company (Southern), P.O. Box 2563,
Birmingham, Alabama 35202-2563, filed in Docket No. CP98-61-000, an
application pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act for
permission and approval to abandon an existing receiving station in
order to modify its operations at the receiving station all as more
fully set forth in the application on file with the Commission and open
to public inspection.
Southern seeks approval to abandon the FGT-Franklinton to Southern
Receipt Meter located at Southern's interconnection with Florida Gas
Transmission Company (FGT), in Washington Parish, Louisiana. Southern
states that upon receiving abandonment authorization, Southern will
reverse the ten-inch meter run to enable it to deliver natural gas to
FGT at that location. Southern asserts that the installation of the
proposed facilities will have no impact on its peak day or firm
requirements. Southern plans to perform the modification of the
delivery point under its blanket certificate of public convenience and
necessity issued in Docket No. CP82-406-000 as an eligible facility
pursuant to Sec. 157.208(a) of the Commission's Regulations.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make protest with reference
to said application should on or before December 8, 1997, file with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First 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
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 provided for, unless otherwise advised, it will
be unnecessary for Southern to appear or be represented at the hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
