[Docket No. SA99-9-000]
W.A.R. Gas Company; Notice of Petition For Adjustment
December 9, 1998.
Take notice that on November 20, 1998, W.A.R. Gas Company (WAR),
filed a petition for adjustment, pursuant to section 502(c) of the
Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (NGPA), for relief from paying
approximately $15,130.70 in Kansas ad valorem tax refunds to Panhandle
Eastern Pipe Line Company, under the Commission's September 10, 1997
order in Docket No. RP97-369-000, et al. [80 FERC para. 61,264 (1997);
rehearing denied, 82 FERC para. 61,058 (1998)]. The Commission's
September 10 order directed First Sellers under the NGPA to make Kansas
ad valorem tax refunds, with interest, for the period from 1983 to
1988. WAR's petition is on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection.
WAR's attorney states that it is a corporation with no assets, such
that any attempt to collect the subject refunds from WAR would be
fruitless. WAR's attorney contends that refund relief should be granted
to WAR on the following grounds: (1) that WAR would suffer a special
hardship if required to make the subject refunds; and (2) that it would
be inequitable to require WAR to make the subject refunds.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said petition should on or before 15 days after the date
of publication in the Federal Register of this notice, file with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E.,
[[Page 69069]]
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, 385.211, 385.1105, and 385.1106). 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.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
