April 6, 1998.
Take notice that on March 30, 1998, High Island Offshore System

Docket No. CP98-311-000, an application pursuant to Section 7(b) of the

transportation service currently being rendered for Texas Gas
Transmission Corporation (TGT), all as more fully set forth in the

open to public inspection.
HIOS proposes to abandon its firm transportation service which HIOS
is rendering in accordance with HIOS' Rate Schedule T-3, as well as
associated Interruptible Overrun Transportation Service rendered in
accordance with HIOS' Rate Schedule I.
HIOS proposes to terminate these services at the end of the
evergreen term of Rate Schedule T-3, effective May 29, 1998 in
accordance with the terms of such rate schedule and in accordance with
timely notice given by TGT to HIOS.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said application should on or before April 22, 1998, file
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 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 NGA (18 CFR 357.10). 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 NGA 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
[[Page 17828]]
filed within the time required herein, 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 HIOS to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
