[Docket No. CP96-41-000]
Colorado Interstate Gas Co.; Notice of Application
November 1, 1995.
Take notice that on October 31, 1995, Colorado Interstate Gas
Company (CIG), Post Office Box 1087, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80944,
filed an application in Docket No. CP96-41-000, pursuant to Section
7(b) of the Natural Gas Act, for authority to abandon by transfer to
CIG Field Services Company (Field Services), its affiliate, certain
certificated and non-certificated facilities, all as more fully set
forth in the application which is on file with the Commission and open
to public inspection.
CIG proposes to spin down to Field Services facilities located in
the states of Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico and Oklahoma
that will be involved in the gathering and processing of natural gas.
It is stated that CIG and Field Services would enter into an agreement
for the transfer of the facilities at net book value at the time of
transfer. CIG indicates that the net book value of the proposed spin
down facilities was $36,111,594 as of December 31, 1994. CIG avers that
the transfer of facilities consist of (1) approximately 2,194 miles of
pipeline ranging from 2 to 24 inches in diameter, with approximately
2,186 wells attached, (2) approximately 77,710 horsepower of
compression, (3) processing facilities, and (4) appurtenant facilities.
CIG proposes to change the accounting classification of certain
facilities that are that are currently on its accounting records in the
gathering function to the transmission function. CIG avers that the
spindown would not adversely affect customers as Field Services will
step in to provide the services that CIG previously provided.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said application should on or before November 22, 1995,
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C.
20406, 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
(19 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 the issuance of certificate authorization and permission and
approval for the proposed abandonment are required by the public
convenience and necessity. If a motion
[[Page 56146]]
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 CIG to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
