[Docket No. RP95-267-000]
Transwestern Pipeline Company; Notice of Section 4 Filing
May 4, 1995.
Take notice that on May 2, 1995, Transwestern Pipeline Company
(Transwestern), tendered for filing with the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (Commission) in the above-referenced proceeding a Section 4
filing.
Transwestern states that it has previously made three abandonment
filings (in Docket Nos. CP94-211, CP95-153 and CP95-70) for which
Transwestern is submitting the Section 4 filing to notify the
Commission of the proposed termination of gathering services prior to
the effective date of such terminations. Transwestern states it is
filing concurrently herewith a Stipulation and Agreement in Docket No.
RP95-267 resolving, among other things, outstanding regulatory issues
in the proceedings referenced in the Stipulation including Docket Nos.
CP94-211, CP95-153 and CP95-70.
Transwestern also states that as a result of restructuring under
Order No. 636, Transwestern has determined that the facilities listed
in the abandonment filings are no longer necessary to Transwestern's
primary function of providing transportation services, and, as an
interstate pipeline subject to the Commission's full regulatory
authority, Transwestern cannot compete effectively with the unregulated
entities providing similar gathering services with similar facilities.
These facilities, states Transwestern, could be operated more
efficiently by a non-regulated entity whose primary business is to
provide production and gathering services. Therefore, Transwestern
states that it proposes to terminate services that are performed on
those facilities.
Transwestern states that copies of the filing were served on its
gas utility customers, interested state commissions, and all parties to
this proceeding.
Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should
file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 825 North Capitol Street, NE., Washington, DC,
20426, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules
of Practice and Procedure. All such motions or protests should be filed
on or before May 11, 1995. Protests will be considered by the
Commission in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but will
not serve to make protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person
wishing to become a party must file a motion to intervene. Copies of
this filing are on file with the Commission and are available for
public inspection.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
