[Docket No. CP98-195-000]
CNG Transmission Corporation; Notice of Application
January 30, 1998.
Take notice that on January 22, 1998, CNG Transmission Corporation
(CNG), 445 West Main Street, Clarksburg, West Virginia, 26301, filed an
application pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act for an
order permitting and approving the abandonment of the No. 2 Engine at
the Helvetia Compressor Station (Engine No 2), all as more fully set
forth in the application which is on file with the Commission and open
to public inspection.
CNG proposes to abandon its Engine No. 2 at CNG's Helvetia
Compressor Station located in Brady Township, Clearfield County, PA.
CNG asserts that due to a decline in the production of natural gas in
the area surrounding the Helvetia Station, the abandonment proposal
herein will not result in the loss of any service to any of CNG's
customers. CNG further asserts that the abandonment of this facility
will result in the elimination of operating and maintenance costs of
this engine unit.
Any person desiring to be heard or to protest with reference to
said application should on or before February 20, 1998, file with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E.,
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 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 herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter
finds that the issuance of certificate authorization and permission and
approval for 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 CNG to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
