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, if

the Commission on its own review of

the matter finds that the proposal 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 Columbia to appear or

be represented at the hearing.

[Docket No. CP00–233–003]

Southern Natural Gas Company;

Notice of Petition To Amend Order

Issuing Certificate and Approving

Abandonment

May 25, 2001.

Take notice that on May 18, 2001,

Southern Natural Gas Company

(Southern), AmSouth-Sonat Tower,

1900 Fifth Avenue North, Birmingham,

Alabama 35203, in Docket No. CP00–

233–003, filed an application pursuant

to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act

(NGA) and the Commission’s Rules and

Regulations, for a petition to amend an

order, all as more fully set forth in the

application which is on file with the

Commission and open to public

inspection. The filing may be viewed on

the web at http://www.ferc.fed.us/

online/rims.htm (call 202–208–2222 for

assistance).

Southern states that it is making this

petition in order to amend the Order

Issuing Certificate and Approving

Abandonment (Certificate Order) issued

in this proceeding on March 15, 2001.1

Southern states that the Certificate

Order authorized the construction and

operation of the facilities commonly

referred to as Southern’s South System

Expansion Project. Southern states that

it seeks approval of a change in the size

of certain of the loop pipelines to be

added to Southern’s South System.

Southern states that it proposes to

substitute 36-inch pipe for certain of the

30-inch pipe authorized in the

Certificate Order. As indicated by

Southern, this change will reduce the

estimated cost of the South System

Expansion Project by $1.1 million and

will reduce the miles of new pipeline

required for the project by

approximately eight (8) miles.

More specifically, Southern states that

it is requesting the Commission issue an

order amending the Certificate Order

changing the pipe size from 30-inch

O.D. to 36-inch O.D. for the indicated

pipeline loop segments and changing

their lengths as follows:

Loop 1: 4.75 miles of pipeline in Clarke

County, Mississippi between Mileposts (MP)

67.23 and MP 71.98 (Phase I) and 3.95 miles

of pipeline in Clarke County, Mississippi,

between MP 71.98 and MP 75.93 (Phase II).

Loop 2: 3.56 miles of pipeline in Sumter

County, Alabama, between MP 102.85 and

MP 106.41 (Phase I) and 9.33 miles of
