Take notice that on November 25,

1997, Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line

Company (Panhandle), 5400

Westheimer Court, Houston, TX 77251–

1642, filed, in Docket No. CP98–101–

7(b) of the Natural Gas Act and Part 157

of the Commission’s Regulations for an

order permitting and approving the

abandonment by sale to Citizens Gas

Fuel Company (Citizens), the Adrian

lateral and appurtenant facilities located

in Lenawee County, Michigan, as more

fully set forth in the application, which

is on file with the Commission and open

for public inspection.

Panhandle is seeking authorization to

abandon the Adrian Lateral facilities

which include: 8.1 miles of 4-inch

pipeline and 8.1 miles of 6-inch

pipeline and appurtenant facilities, the

existing metering facility and

appurtenant equipment, with the

exception of the electronic gas

measurement equipment, all located in

Lenawee County, Michigan. Panhandle

indicates that its use of these facilities

has been limited to delivering natural

gas to Citizens in order to serve its

various local distribution customers.

Panhandle says that upon abandonment

and transfer of the lateral, Citizens will

include the facilities as part of its local

distribution system and will continue to

provide service to its customers.

Panhandle states the facilities to be

transferred are fully depreciated.

Panhandle proposes to sell the facilities

to Citizens for the sum of Ten Dollars

($10.00).

Panhandle states that its total system

capacity will not be affected by this

abandonment; that no customers

presently served by Panhandle will have

service terminated; nor will there be any

changes to Panhandle’s existing tariff.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

make any protest with reference to said

application should on or before

December 23, 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 385.211 and

385.214) 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

motion to intervene is filed within the

time required herein, if the Commission

on its own review of the matter finds

that permission and approval for 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 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 Panhandle to appear or

to be represented at the hearing.
