SunShine Interstate Transmission Co.; Suspension of Environmental 
Review Process for the Sitco/Sunshine Project

February 7, 1995.
    The Preliminary Determination issued May 25, 1994, states that the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) intends to prepare 
one Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) which examines the 
environmental impacts of both SunShine Interstate Transmission 
Company's (SITCO) and SunShine Pipeline Company's (SunShine) 
facilities. The Commission staff now notifies all parties that we are 
suspending environmental review. In a December 9, 1994 filing SITCO:
     States that it is studying a proposed amendment to its 
application which would reduce the length of the SITCO portion of the 
project. SITCO states that any amendment would be filed by May 1, 1995;
     Proposes a preferred schedule which contemplates start up 
of the EIS in November 1995; and
     Indicates that because of the needs of its customers, 
SITCO and SunShine now propose a pipeline in-service date of January 
1998, rather than in 1996.
    The Commission staff will issue a Notice of Intent to Prepare an 
EIS at an appropriate time in the future.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
