    Texas Gas requests authorization to abandon the transportation 
service provided under its Rate Schedule X-55 for Energy Development 
and authorized in Docket No. CP75-275. Texas Gas states that under 
Docket No. CP75-275, Texas Gas was authorized to provide a 
transportation service for Energy Development pursuant to a 
Transportation Agreement dated February 28, 1975 (Transportation 
Agreement). Texas Gas states that service is no longer provided under 
the Transportation Agreement and the Transportation Agreement has been 
terminated by mutual agreement of the parties by letter dated June 5, 
1996.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said application should on before July 8, 1997, file with 
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 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 into 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 
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 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 Texas Gas to appear or be represented at the 
hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
