ANR Pipeline Company; Notice of

Application

May 21, 1998.

Take notice that on May 13, 1998,

ANR Pipeline Company (ANR), 500

Renaissance Center, Detroit, Michigan

48243, filed in Docket No. CP98–547–

000, an abbreviated application

pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural

Gas Act (NGA) seeking permission and

approval to abandon the operation of

certain natural gas storage facilities no

longer needed for customer or system

requirements, all as more fully set forth

in the application which is on file with

the Commission and open to public

inspection.

Specifically, ANR seeks authority to

(1) abandon the operation of three

storage fields currently leased from Mid

Michigan Gas Storage Company (Mid

Michigan), the North Hamilton,

Norwich and Orient Storage Fields; (2)

abandon by sale to Mid Michigan all

facilities, including base gas, owned by

ANR in the three storage fields leased by

ANR from Mid Michigan; and (3)

abandon by sale to Mid Michigan two

storage fields currently owned and

operated by ANR, the Coldwater and

Croton Storage Fields.

Any person desiring to participate in

the hearing process or to make any

protest with reference to said

application should on or before June 11,

1998, 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 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.

A person obtaining intervenor status

will be placed on the service list

maintained by the Secretary of the

Commission and will receive copies of

all documents issued by the

Commission, filed by the applicant, or

intervenors. An intervenor can file for

rehearing of any Commission order and

can petition for court review of any such

order. However, an intervenor must

submit copies of comments or any other

filing it makes with the Commission to

every other intervenor in the

proceeding, as well as filing an original

and 14 copies with the Commission.

A person does not have to intervene,

however, in order to have comments

considered. A person, instead, may

submit two copies of such comments to

the Secretary of the Commission.

Commenters will be placed on the

Commission’s environmental mailing

list, will receive copies of

environmental documents and will be

able to participate in meetings

associated with the Commission’s

environmental review process.

Commenters will not be required to

serve copies of filed documents on all

other parties. However, commenters

will not receive copies of all documents

filed by other parties or issued by the

Commission and will not have the right

to seek rehearing or appeal the

Commission’s final order to a Federal

court.

The Commission will consider all

comments and concerns equally,

whether filed by commenters or those

requesting intervenor status.

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 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 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 ANR to appear or be

represented at the hearing.

David P. Boergers,

Acting Secretary.
