[Docket No. CP95–138–000]

Natural Gas Pipeline Co. of America;

Notice of Application

January 6, 1995.

Take notice that on December 29,

1994, Natural Gas Pipeline Company of

America (Natural), 701 East 22nd Street,

Lombard, Illinois 60148, filed in Docket

No. CP95–138–000 an application

pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural

Gas Act for permission and approval to

abandon by sale an offshore pipeline

lateral and appurtenant facilities located

offshore Texas, all as more fully set

forth in the application on file with the

Commission and open to public

inspection.

Natural proposes to abandon by sale

to NCX Company, Inc. (NCX), a 0.95

mile pipeline lateral in High Island,

Block A–270 (HI A–270). It is stated that

the lateral was constructed under

Natural’s budget certificate in Docket

No. CP80–86–000, to gain access to gas

supplies from Chevron U.S.A. Inc.

(Chevron) and to transport gas for itself

and for Tennessee Gas Pipeline

Company (Tennessee), which was also

receiving gas supplies from Chevron,

through the High Island Offshore

System. It is asserted that NCX is one of

the working interest owners in HI A–

270 and the operator of the platform. It

is explained that NCX would purchase

the facilities for $550,000. It is stated

that NCX is requesting in a separate

petition that the Commission issue a

declaratory order making a

determination that the lateral be

considered a non-jurisdictional

gathering facility.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

make any protest with reference to said

application should on or before January

27, 1995, 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 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

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 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 propose 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 Natural to appear or be

represented at the hearing.

Secretary.

Southern California Edison Company;

Filing

January 6, 1995.

Take notice that on January 6, 1995,

Southern California Edison Company

(Edison) filed a Petition For

Enforcement pursuant to Section 210(h)

of the Public Utility Regulatory Policies

Commission (California Commission)

has ordered Edison to sign long-term,

fixed-price contracts with qualifying

facilities (QFs) to purchase 686 MW of

new capacity that will come on line in

1997–99. Edison asserts that these new

contracts will require payments above

its avoided cost and will dramatically

increase stranded costs in a soon to be

restructured electric utility industry.

Edison requests the Commission to

relieve Edison and its customers from

these California Commission orders

which it asserts violate both PURPA and

this Commission’s regulations. 18 CFR

Part 292.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

protest said filing should file a motion

to intervene or protest with the Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission, 825

North Capitol Street, NE., Washington,

DC 20426, in accordance with Rules 211

and 214 of the Commission’s Rules of

Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211

and 18 CFR 385.214). All such motions

or protests should be filed on or before

January 27, 1995. Protests will be

considered by the Commission in

determining the appropriate action to be

taken, but will not serve to make
