Take notice that on June 9, 1999, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company
(Tennessee), 1001 Louisiana Street, P.O. Box 2511, Houston, Texas
77252-2511 and Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America (Natural), 747
East 22nd Street, Lombard, Illinois 60148 (referred to Collectively as
Applicants) filed under Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act, for
authority to abandon, a certificated gas exchange service. The exchange
service has been provided under Tennessee's Rate schedule X-53 in its
FERC Gas Tariff, Original Volume No. 2 and Natural's Rate Schedule X-77
in its FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised Volume No. 2. Applicants state
that they no longer need the service and have both consented to its
abandonment. The proposal is more fully set forth in the application
which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
This filing may also be viewed on the Internet at http://www.ferc.us/
online/rims.htm. (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).
Any person desiring to be heard or make any protest with reference
to said application should on or before July 6, 1999, file with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE.,
Washington, DC 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
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 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 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, or if the Commission on its own review of the matter finds
that permission and approval of 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.
Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised,
it will be unnecessary for the Applicants to appear or be represented
at the hearing.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
