[Docket No. CP99-98-000]
Southern Natural Gas Company, Texas Gas Transmission Corporation;
Notice of Application To Abandon
December 4, 1998.
Take notice that on December 2, 1998, Southern Natural Gas Company
(Southern), P.O. Box 2563, Birmingham, Alabama, 35202-2563, and Texas
Gas Transmission Corporation (Texas Gas), P.O. Box 20008, Owensboro,
Kentucky 42304 (jointly referred to as Applicants) filed under Section
7(b) of the Natural Gas Act, for authority to abandon, an interruptible
transportation service which Applicants provided for Mississippi Valley
Gas Company (MVG). The service was provided under Southern's Rate
Schedule X-42 and Texas Gas' Rate Schedule X-76, all as more fully set
forth in the application on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection.
Applicants state that this transportation service is no longer
needed and has been terminated by mutual agreement between Applicants
and MVG.
Any person desiring to be heard or make any protest with reference
to said application should on or before December 28, 1998, file with
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE,
Washington DC 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, or if the Commission on its own review of the matter finds
that permission and approval of 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 Applicants to appear or be represented at
the hearing.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
