Take notice that on March 29, 1994, Southern Natural Gas Company

Docket No. CP94-314-000 a request pursuant to Section 157.205 of the

blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-406-000, all as more

Southern states that it has provided natural gas service to right-
of-way grantors and other rural residences, designated as farm taps, at
various locations throughout its transmission system. Southern
indicates that it seeks to abandon eleven of these farm tap facilities
by transfer to certain local distribution companies that currently
receive transportation service from Southern. According to Southern,
effective November 1, 1993, these local distribution companies began
service to the right-of-way owners at the farm taps that Southern seeks
to abandon and Southern cancelled its existing sales agreements with
the right-of-way owners. Southern states that such cancellation was
necessary as part of Southern's abandonment of its traditional merchant
sales service pursuant to the terms of Order No. 636.

finds that a grant of the certificate and/or 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.
