[Docket No. CP97-744-000]
CNG Transmission Corporation; Texas Gas Transmission Corporation;
Notice of Application
September 15, 1997.
Take notice that on September 10, 1997, CNG Transmission
Corporation (CNG), 445 West Main Street, Clarksburg, West Virginia
26302-2450 and Texas Gas Transmission Corporation (Texas Gas), Post
Office Box 20008, Owensboro, Kentucky 42304, filed a joint abbreviated
application in Docket No. CP97-744-000, pursuant to Section 7(b) of the
Natural Gas Act (NGA) for permission and approval to abandon a natural
gas exchange service between CNG and Texas Gas all as more fully set
forth in the application on file with the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission (Commission) and open to public inspection.
CNG and Texas Gas propose to abandon a natural gas exchange service
which was authorized in Docket No. CP72-183 that was provided under
CNG's Rate Schedule X-11 in its FPC Gas Tariff, Original Volume No. 2
and Texas Gas's Rate Schedule X-43 in its FPC Gas Tariff, Original
Volume No. 2. CNG and Texas Gas state that the exchange service expired
by its own terms; therefore, it is no longer required or appropriate.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said application should on or before October 6, 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 NGA (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.
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
[[Page 49213]]
Commission or its designee on this application if no motion to
intervene is filed within the time required herein, if the Commission
on its own review of the matter finds that a grant of the certificate
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 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 and Texas Gas to appear or be
represented at the hearing.
