01-5526. Chevron Products Company v. Anschutz Ranch East Pipeline, Inc. and Express Pipeline Partnership; Notice of Complaint

March 1, 2001.

Take notice that on February 28, 2001, Chevron Products Company (Chevron) tendered for filing a complaint against Anschutz Ranch East Pipeline, Inc. (Anschutz) and Express Pipeline Partnership (Express).

Chevron states that it is a shipper of crude oil and sour condensate on a local tariff filed by Anschutz for the shipment of crude petroleum and sour condensate originating at Frontier Station, Utah and Evanston Station, Wyoming and terminating in Kimball Junction, Utah. Chevron states that it is also a shipper of crude oil on joint tariffs published by Anschutz and Express for the shipment of crude petroleum between International boundary, Canada and Salt Lake City, Utah. Chevron alleges that the rates being charged on the Anschutz local tariff and on the Anschutz portion or division of the Anschutz/Express joint tariffs are unjust and unreasonable and unduly discriminatory and unduly preferential, and, therefore, in violation of the Interstate Commerce Act. Chevron further maintains that the rates charged on the Express/Anschutz joint tariffs exceed ceiling price levels.
