[Docket No. CP98-277-000]
Transok, L.L.C. Notice of Petition for Declaratory Order
March 19, 1998.
Take notice that, on March 10, 1998, Transok, L.L.C. (Transok), 110
W. 7th, Tulsa, OK 74101-3008, filed a petition pursuant to Rule 207 of
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.207).
Transok requests a declaratory order stating that its acquisition of 37
miles of pipeline, located in Custer and Roger Mills Counties, Oklahoma
and currently owned by, Northern Natural Gas Company (Northern) will
not subject Transok to the jurisdiction of the Commission. All of this
is more fully set forth in the application, which is on file with the
Commission and open to public inspection.
This petition is a companion to Northern's application to abandon
facilities in Docket No. CP98-218-000. Transok is a limited liability
corporation engaged in gathering and intrastate transportation of gas.
Transok and Northern have entered into a sales agreement under
which Northern will transfer facilities to Transok for $3,000,000.
Transok states that after the transfer, it will use the facilities as
part of its gathering system.
The facilities to be sold by Northern consist of:
1. The Redmoon Lateral made up of 14 miles of 8-inch line extending
from the outlet of the inactive Crescendo Resources, L.L.P. Plant in
Section 5, Township 15N, Range 21W, Roger Mills County, Oklahoma to the
Redmoon Dehy Yard located in Section 27, Township 14N, Range 20W, in
Custer County, Oklahoma.
2. The Custer County Pipeline made up of 23 miles of 16-inch line
extending from the Northern/Transok interconnect in Section 22,
Township 13N, Range 17W, to a point in Section 14, Township 12N, Range
14W, all in Custer County, Oklahoma.
Any person desiring to be heard or make any protest with reference
to said application should on or before April 9, 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, or if the Commission on its own review of the matter finds
that a grant of the certificate is 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 Transok to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
David P. Boergers,
Acting Secretary.
