Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said application should on or before August 16, 1999, file
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E.,
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 and 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 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 protest
or motion to intervene is filed within the time required herein. At
that time, the Commission on its own review of the matter will
determine whether granting permission and approval for the proposed
abandonment is 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 Texas Eastern or Transco to appear or to be
represented at the hearing.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
