    Specifically, Tennessee proposes to abandon approximately 7.51
miles of 10-inch diameter pipeline (Line No. 523M-2700) and associated
meter and appurtenances located within the Eugene Island Area of the
Outer Continental Shelf. Tennessee states that the subject facilities
have been out of service since it was damaged by Hurricane Ike in
September 2008. Tennessee asserts that is has not provided
transportation service to any shippers through Line No. 523M-2700 for
more than twelve months and there are no firm contracts associated with
the receipt points located on the line. Tennessee estimates the cost to
construct similar facilities today is approximately $18.4 million.
