Distrigas of Massachusetts Corporation; Notice of Application for 
Abandonment of Sales Services

January 4, 2008.
    Take notice that on December 19, 2007, Distrigas of Massachusetts 
LLC (DOMAC), One Liberty Square, 10th Floor, Boston, Massachusetts 
02109, filed an application under section 3 and section 7 of the 
Natural Gas Act (NGA) to obtain authorization: (1) For the abandonment 
of services provided pursuant to DOMAC's FERC Gas Tariff, First 
Revisited Volume No. 1 (Tariff) and under DOMAC's amended certificate 
of public convenience and necessity; (2) for the cancellation of 
DOMAC's Tariff, including all of its rate schedules contained therein; 
and (3) to retain certain existing rate and service terms now 
applicable to its liquid sales only pursuant to section 3 of the NGA 
based upon the Commission's acceptance of their Terms of Liquid 
Service; to become applicable to liquid sales upon such approval.
    This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov, using the 

``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the Commission's 
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an ``eSubscription'' 
link on the Web site that enables subscribers to receive e-mail 
notification when a document is added to a subscribed docket(s). For 
assistance with any FERC Online service, please e-mail 
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov, or call (866) 208-3676 (toll free). For 

TTY, call (202) 502-8659.
    Any questions regarding this filing should be directed to Mr. 
Robert A. Nailling, Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary, 
Distrigas of Massachusetts LLC, One Liberty Square, 10th Floor, Boston, 
Massachusetts 02109, or Phone: (617) 526-8300.
    DOMAC states that it purchases liquefied natural gas (LNG) imported 
by Distrigas LLC from various international sources. Distrigas LLC is a 
corporate affiliate of DOMAC. DOMAC then resells the LNG in vapor and 
liquid form to its customers located throughout the northeastern United 
States. DOMAC's customers include local distribution companies, gas 
marketers, and end-users, including electric power generation plants. 
DOMAC proposes to continue to make such sales of LNG in liquid and 
vapor form subject only to the Commission's jurisdiction under section 
3 of the NGA, as amended by the Energy Policy Act of 2005. DOMAC 
proposes that sales of vaporized LNG will be under flexible, negotiate 
contracts with market-responsive terms not subject to the Commission's 
jurisdiction. However, DOMAC proposes a Statement of Terms and 
Conditions for Liquid Service incorporating terms and conditions from 
the current Tariff, to apply only to liquid sales. DOMAC requests that 
the proposed abandonment of such sales pursuant to its amended 
certificate under section 7 of the NGA and the Terms of Liquid Service 
be effective as of April 1, 2008.
    Any person desiring to intervene or to protest this filing must 
file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of 
Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214). Protests will be 
considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to 
be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the 
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a notice of 
intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices, 
motions, or protests must be filed on or before the comment date shown 
below. Anyone filing a motion to intervene or protest must serve a copy 
of that document on the Applicant. On or before the comment date, it is 
not necessary to serve motions to intervene or protests on persons 
other than the Applicant.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and 
interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link at http://www.ferc.gov.
 Persons unable to file electronically should submit an 

original and 14 copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 
20426.
    Comment Date: January 25, 2008.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
