environmental quality because of the proposed project. Natural states
that on March 17, 1995, it requested the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
Endangered Species Clearance and the State Historical Society of Iowa
Cultural Resources Clearance. On March 22, 1995, it requested the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers Clearance. Natural states that the above
clearance letters will be submitted upon receipt.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make protest with reference
to said application should on or before May 26, 1995, 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 385.211 and
385.214) and the regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10).
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 in any proceeding herein 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 Commission by
sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act 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 filed within the time required herein, if the
Commission on its own review of the matter finds that 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 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 Natural to appear or to be represented at
the hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
