[Docket No. CP98-74-000]
ANR Pipeline Company v. Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line
Corporation; Notice of Complaint
November 17, 1997.
Take notice that on November 7, 1997, ANR Pipeline Company (ANR),
500 Renaissance Center, Detroit, Michigan 48243, filed with the
Commission in Docket No. CP98-74-000 a complaint against
Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company (Transco) P.O. Box 1396,
Houston, Texas 77251 requesting that the Commission direct Transco to
establish an interconnection that will enable ANR to make deliveries to
Transco in Evangeline Parish, Louisiana, all as more fully set forth in
the complaint on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection.
ANR states that since January 1997, ANR and Transco have discussed
the construction of an interconnection between their respective
mainline facilities in Evangeline Parish, Louisiana that would allow
ANR to make firm deliveries of up to 300 MMCF of gas per day to Transco
to satisfy requests of certain shippers on the ANR system. ANR
indicates that it has advised Transco that ANR will reimburse Transco
for the cost of these facilities. ANR claims that in July 1997, Transco
advised ANR that it would not consent to the construction of an
interconnection that would allow gas to be delivered on a firm basis
from ANR's mainline into Transco's mainline. ANR asserts that Transco
informed ANR that, as an alternative, it would be willing to accept
deliveries on behalf of ANR's shippers at an existing point of
interconnection between ANR's facilities and a lateral pipeline owned
by Transco and operated by Transco's affiliate, Williams Field
Services, which is located at Enice, Louisiana. ANR states that ANR
informed Transco that its alternate proposal for receiving gas from ANR
was not acceptable because it did not satisfy the needs of ANR's
shippers.
ANR claims that because Transco has declined to construct the
facilities the dispute between ANR and Transco has reached an impasse.
ANR requests that the Commission promptly resolve the dispute by
ordering Transco to install the requested minor interconnection
facilities.
Any person desiring to be heard or make a protest with reference to
ANR's complaint should file with the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a motion to
intervene or protest in accordance with the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 or 385.214). All such motions,
together with the answer of Respondent to the complaint and motions,
should be filed on or before December 17, 1997. Any person desiring to
become a party must file a motion to intervene. Copies

of this filing are on file with the Commission and available for public
inspection. Answers to the complaint shall be due on or before December
17, 1997.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
