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
[[Page 8077]]
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 permission and approval for the proposed abandonment
are required by the pubic 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 Columbia to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
