Texaco Natural Gas Inc. v. Sea Robin

Pipeline Company; Notice of

Complaint

September 10, 1997.

Take notice that on September 4,

1997, pursuant to Rule 206 of the

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedure, 18 CFR § 385.206, Texaco

Natural Gas Inc. (Texaco) tendered for

filing a complaint against Sea Robin

Pipeline Company (Sea Robin).

Texaco alleges that Sea Robin failed to

follow its tariff provision in allocating

capacity on a net present value basic

and that Sea Robin failed to provide

notice in a timely fashion to all shippers

that Sea Robin instead intended to

allocate capacity on a first-come, firstserved basis.

Texaco requests that the Commission

order Sea Robin to allocate capacity on

its system in future months based on the

net present value procedure in its tariff.
Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 179 / Tuesday, September 16, 1997 / Notices 48641

Texaco also alleges that Sea Robin

engaged in unduly discriminatory and

preferential actions related to the

manner in which it provided notice of

capacity constraints and solicited bids

for available capacity.

Texaco further asks the Commission

to investigate the adequacy of Sea

Robin’s maintenance of its Erath

Compressor Station to determine

whether inadequate care in maintaining

that facility contributed to the capacity

constraint resulting from schedule

maintenance on Sea Robin’s Vermilion

Block 149 Compressor Station.

Texaco also requests that Sea Robin

be required to make restitution to

Texaco for the damages it incurred as

the direct result of Sea Robin’s actions.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

protest with respect to said Complaint

should file a motion to intervene or

protest with the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, 888 First

Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, in

Practice and Procedure. All such

motions or protests must be filed on or

become a party must file a motion to

intervene. Copies of this filing are on

complaint are due on or before October
