[Docket No. CP98-124-000]
Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company; Notice of Request Under
Blanket Authorization
December 16, 1997.
Take notice that on December 9, 1997, Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line
Company (Panhandle), P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251-1642, filed in
Docket No, CP98-124-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and
157.211 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18
CFR 157.205, 157.211) for authorization to construct, own and operate a
new delivery point to be located in Pittsboro, Hendriks County Indiana,
under Panhandle's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-83-000,
pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set
forth in the request that is on file with the Commission and open to
public inspection.
Specifically Panhandle proposes to install two 8-inch hot taps and
check valves on Panhandle's mainline facilities, approximately 1,200
feet of 8-inch connecting pipe, and install electronic gas measurement
equipment on the proposed metering facilities. Panhandle states that
the proposed interconnection will be utilized to provide transportation
service to Indiana Gas Company (Indiana Gas) for redelivery to
Qualitech Corporation, a steel plant near Pittsboro, Indiana. Panhandle
states that Indiana Gas will also construct facilities to accommodate
receipt of the gas from Panhandle. The estimated cost of the proposed
facilities is approximately $85,000, which Panhandle states will be
reimbursed by Indiana Gas. Panhandle states that the new
interconnection will be designed to deliver up to 36,000 Dt/d of
natural gas.
Panhandle states that the construction of the proposed facilities
will have no effect on its peak day and annual delivery requirement,
and that Panhandle has sufficient capacity to accomplish deliveries
without detriment or disadvantage to its other customers.
Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule
214 of the Commission's Procedural Rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to
intervene or notice of intervention and pursuant to Section 157.205 of
the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to
the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor,
the proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the
day after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a protest is filed
and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for
authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
