[Docket No. CP97-362-001]
Florida Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Amendment
July 9, 1997.
Take notice that on April 30, 1997, Florida Gas Transmission
Company (FGT), 1400 Smith Street, Houston, Texas 77002, filed in Docket
No. CP97-362-001, an amendment to its application filed in Docket No.
CP97-362-000. The amended application is to reflect revised Exhibits Y
and Z. The initial application in Docket No. CP97-362-000 was filed
pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act, seeking permission and
approval to abandon, by sale to Copano Field Services Copano Bay, L.P.,
a Texas Limited Partnership (Copano), certain natural gas supply
laterals and related appurtenant facilities located in the counties of
Nueces and San Patricio, Texas, all as more fully set forth in FGT's
amendment which is on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection.
FGT indicates that it will construct electronic flow measurement
equipment and related appurtenant facilities (new receipt point), once
Copano takes possession of the above stated facilities. Exhibit Y was
amended to reflect FGT's estimated cost to construct the electronic
flow measurement equipment and related appurtenant facilities. FGT
indicated in its original application, that it proposes to sell Copano
the 17.5 mile 12-inch Encinal Channel Lateral; the 0.3 mile 4-inch
Shell East White Point Lateral; the 2.7 mile 4-inch Nueces Bay Lateral;
the 0.2 mile 4-inch Phillips East White Point Lateral; the 2.1 mile 3-
inch Angelita Lateral; and all related appurtenant facilities. In
addition, FGT states that it seeks Commission permission to transfer by
sale to Copano the 0.3 mile 4-inch Phillips Spradley Lateral which FGT
states was abandoned in place pursuant to an order issued by the
Commission on May 5, 1983, in Docket No. CP83-80-000.
It is further stated that the abandonment and sale proposed herein
will not impair any current services nor will it disadvantage any
existing customer of FGT. FGT indicates that the proposed abandonment
and sale of the subject facilities will save FGT approximately $10,500
per year in operating and maintenance costs.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said amendment should on or before July 30,
[[Page 37900]]
1997, 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 385.214 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. All persons who have heretofore
filed need not file again.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
