[Docket No. RP98-206-005]
Atlanta Gas Light Company; Notice of Filing
June 25, 1999.
Take notice that on June 22, 1999, Atlanta Gas Light Company
(Atlanta) tendered for filing a request for extension of the waivers
and limited jurisdiction blanket certificate granted by the Commission
in its ``Order Issuing Limited-Term, Limited-Jurisdiction Blanket
Certificate, Amending Certificates for a Limited Term, and Granting
Temporary Waivers'' issued on July 31, 1998 in the above-captioned
proceeding (July 31 Order).
Atlanta requests that the Commission grant an extension of the
waivers and other authorizations granted in the July 31 Order in order
to enable Atlanta to continue to implement the interstate capacity
assignment provisions of Georgia's retail natural gas unbundling
program beyond the October 31, 1999 expiration date of the
authorizations granted in the July 31 Order. To provide certainty for
parties participating in the Georgia program, Atlanta requests that the
Commission extend the waivers and other authorizations until March 31,
2003, or the time that the affected interstate services either expire,
are made directly assignable, or are converted to Part 284 service,
whichever occurs sooner. In addition, Atlanta requests that the
Commission expand Atlanta's waiver of Section 284.243(h)(2) of the
Commission's regulations to enable Atlanta to pass through to marketers
the benefits of discount and negotiated rate arrangements Atlanta may
enter into in the future, in addition to the existing Southern discount
arrangement. Atlanta further requests that the Commission act on its
request by July 28, 1999, to enable Atlanta and its marketers to make
the necessary arrangements and adjustments with interstate pipeline
suppliers prior to October 1, 1999, when it is anticipated that Atlanta
will exit the merchant function.
Any person desiring to protest said filing should file a protest
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE,
Washington, DC 20426, in accordance with Section 285.211 of the
Commission's Rules and Regulations. All such protests must be filed on
or before July 2, 1999. 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 proceedings. Copies of this filing
are on file with the Commission and are available for public inspection
in the Public Reference Room. This filing may be viewed on the web at
