[Docket No. CP96–145–000]

Lawrenceburg Gas Company; Notice

of Application

January 23, 1996.

Take notice that on January 18, 1996,

Lawrenceburg Gas Company

(Lawrenceburg), 139 East Fourth Street,

Cincinnati, OH 45202, filed in Docket

No. CP96–145–000 an application

pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural

Gas Act for limited authorizations in

connection with providing

transportation service for the Cincinnati

Gas & Electri Company (Cincinnati), all

as more fully set forth in the application

on file with the Commission and open

to public inspection.

The authorizations requested by

Lawrenceburg include: (1) a limited

jurisdiction certificate of public

convenience and necessity under

Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act

(NGA) authorizing the transportation of

gas by Lawrenceburg for Cincinnati to

serve, for a period of between six and

12 months, a small number of customers

on Cincinnati’s distribution system; (2)

a certificate of public convenience and

necessity under Section 7(c) of the NGA

to install and operate a 22.5-inch meter

that will interconnect Lawrenceburg’s

facilities with those of Cincinnati at the

Indiana-Ohio border; (3) pre-granted

abandonment authorization for the

certificates of public convenience and

necessity requested herein; and (4)

waiver of the Commission’s reporting

and accounting requirements ordinarily

applicable to natural gas companies

under the NGA and the Natural Gas

Policy Act of 1978 and any waivers that

the Commission may deem necessary.

Lawrenceburg states that on or about

April 1, 1996, the Ohio Department of

Transportation will commence

construction work on a bridge on which

certain Cincinnati facilities are located

and that these facilities will have to be

removed for a period of approximately

six to 12 months. Lawrenceburg states

that the result of removing these

facilities is that a small portion of

Cincinnati’s service territory, including

62 residential customers, one school,

and two industrial customers, will not

be able to receive natural gas absent

either Lawrenceburg’s delivery of gas, as

proposed herein, or the construction of

costly temporary pipeline facilities.

Lawrenceburg states that pursuant to

a transportation agreement dated

January 17, 1996 (Rate Schedule X–1),

Cincinnati will utilize its upstream

capacity on Texas Gas Transmission

Corporation (Texas Gas) and deliver gas

to Lawrenceburg’s Guilford Station

interconnection with Texas Gas.

Lawrenceburg states that it will take

delivery of Cincinnati’s gas and

redeliver the gas at its interconnection

with Cincinnati at the Indiana-Ohio

border. Lawrenceburg anticipates that it

will deliver a total of between 150,000

and 325,000 Dth during the period of

the service described herein.

Lawrenceburg states that the proposed

service will not adversely affect

Lawrenceburg’s nonjurisdictional

distribution service due to the limited

volumes delivered and limited facilities

utilized by the proposed service.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

make any protest with reference to said

application should on or before

February 13, 1996, 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 385.214 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 a grant of the

certificate 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 Lawrenceburg to appear

or be represented at the hearing.

Secretary.
