[Docket No. CP98-754-000]
CNG Transmission Corporation; Notice of Application To Abandon
September 3, 1998.
Take notice that on August 31, 1998, CNG Transmission Corporation
(CNG), 445 West Main Street, Clarksburg, West Virginia 26301 filed in
Docket No. CP98-754-000, an application pursuant to Section 7(b) of the
Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission's (Commission) regulations, for authority to abandon storage
services under CNG's Rate Schedule GSS-II, over a five-year period
commencing as of November 1, 1998. CNG states that its application has
been filed to implement the provisions of Article VII of the
Stipulation and Agreement (the Stipulation) that was also filed on
August 31, 1998, in Docket No. RP97-406-000, et al. In the Stipulation,
CNG seeks authorization to convert GSS-II services to corresponding
levels of service under the terms and conditions of CNG's Rate
Schedules GSS and FT. CNG also requests that the Commission consolidate
its review of the instant application with its consideration of the
offer of settlement in Docket No. RP97-406-000, et al. CNG's proposal
is more fully set forth in the application which is on file with the
Commission and open to public inspection.
Any person desiring to be heard or making any protest with
reference to said application should on or before September 21, 1998,
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. The Commission's rules require that protestors provide
copies of their protests to the party or person to whom the protests
are directed. 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 NGA 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
herein, 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 CNG to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
