Commission 

[Docket No. CP08–448–000] 

Trunkline Gas Company, LLC; Notice 

of Request Under Blanket 

Authorization 

August 12, 2008. 

Take notice that on July 31, 2008, 

Trunkline Gas Company, LLC 

(Trunkline), 5444 Westheimer Road, 

Houston, Texas 77056–5306, filed in 

Docket No. CP08–448–000, an 

application, as supplemented on August 

11, 2008, pursuant to sections 157.205 

and 157.216(b) of the Commission’s 

Regulations under the Natural Gas Act 

(NGA) as amended, to abandon by sale 

approximately 29 miles of 10-inch 

diameter pipeline and appurtenant 

facilities (the Quicksand Lateral 

facilities) to Enerfin Field Services LLC 

(Enerfin) in Beauregard Parish, 

Louisiana, under Trunkline’s blanket 

certificate issued in Docket No. CP83–

84–000,1 all as more fully set forth in 

the application which is on file with the 

Commission and open to the public for 

inspection. 

Trunkline states that Enerfin would 

use the Quicksand Lateral facilities as 

part of its nonjurisdictional gathering 

system. Trunkline also states that the 

Quicksand Lateral facilities transported 

an average of 2MMcf of natural gas per 

day in 2007. Trunkline further states 

that it cost approximately $60,000 to 

upgrade the Quicksand Lateral facilities 

and approximately $220,000 in 

additional annual expenses to operate 

and maintain the facilities (which 

exceeds the estimated annual revenue). 

Additionally, Trunkline states that the 

Quicksand Lateral facilities do not have 

any long-term viability to Trunkline, 

and there is no foreseeable commercial 

development in the area to support 

retaining the facilities as part of 

Trunkline’s pipeline system. Finally, 

Trunkline states that it would cost 

approximately $21,850,000 to replicate 

the Quicksand Lateral facilities based 

upon 2008 construction prices, and 

requests that the purchase price should 

remain confidential.

application may be directed to Stephen
