Williams Energy Services, LLC and Williams Power Company, Inc.; 
Complainants v. Mid-America Pipeline Company, LLC and Seminole Pipeline 
Company; Respondents; Mid-America Pipeline Company, LLC; Notice of 
Complaint

March 8, 2006.
    Take notice that on March 6, 2006, Williams Energy Services, LLC 
and Williams Power Company, Inc. (Williams), filed a complaint against 
Mid-America Pipeline Company, LLC (MAPL) and Seminole Pipeline Company 
(Seminole) pursuant to section 13 (1) of the Interstate Commerce Act, 
49 U.S. App. 13(1), and Rule 206 of the Commission Rules of Practice 
and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.206. Williams alleges that MAPL and Seminole 
have violated the Interstate Commerce Act by charging unjust and 
unreasonable rates for the transportation of natural gas liquids. 
Williams also alleges that: (1) The cost of providing service has not 
been properly allocated among the MAPL pipeline segments, (ii) 
transportation rate differentials between specific and separate 
``Groups'' were unjustified, (iii) the MAPL and Seminole application of 
the Commission's ``Joint Rate Policy'' was inappropriate, (iv) MAPL 
cannot request a cost of service rate increase and an index rate 
increase during a single index year, (v) the Seminole rate increase is 
invalid, (vi) specific rate differentials are unjustified; and (vii) 
the MAPL revisions to an existing incentive rate program are unduly 
discriminatory.
    Williams states that copies of the complaint have been served on 
the contacts for MAPL and Seminole as listed on the Commission's list 
of corporate officials.
    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. The Respondent's 
answer and all interventions, or protests must be filed on or before
