Southern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket
Authorization
March 23, 1999.
Take notice that on March 16, 1999, Southern Natural Gas Company
(Southern), P.O. Box 2563, Birmingham, Alabama 35202-2563, filed in
Docket No. CP99-257-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and
157.216 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18
CFR 157.205, 157.216) for authorization to abandon a measurement
facility at a delivery point under Southern's blanket certificate
issued in Docket No. CP82-406-000 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. This filing may be
viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (call 202-
208-2222 for assistance).
Southern states that it provided transportation service on behalf
of Northern Natural Gas Company to the Allied Chemicals Corporation's
Allied-Geismer Plant, pursuant to Commission Order in Docket No. CP82-
101-000 dated April 9, 1982. The service expired under the terms of the
Certificate Order on October 31, 1984. Accordingly, Southern requests
authorization to abandon the Allied-Geismer Meter Station.
Southern states that it seeks to abandon the meter station at the
delivery point because the meter station has not been operational for
over ten years and the customer has not requested service from
Southern. In addition, the service for which Southern constructed the
facilities to serve the plant has expired by its own terms. The
delivery point Southern seeks to abandon is designated as the Allied-
Geismer Meter Station (Point Code 823600) and is located near Mile Post
36.159 on Southern's 20-inch Duck Lake-Franklinton Line in Iberville
Parish, Louisiana.
The abandonment of the meter station facility is required by the
present and future public convenience and necessity, will decrease
maintenance costs for Southern and will not result in any termination
of natural gas service. The proposed abandonment of the facility is not
prohibited by any existing tariff of Southern. The rate schedule under
which Southern provided service to the Meter Station has been canceled.
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 allow 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
[[Page 14900]]
authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act.

Secretary.
