    Specifically, Transwestern proposes to abandon in place or offer by 
sale, approximately 33.4 miles of 20-inch diameter pipeline which 
begins at the discharge of the Gomez Processing Plant near the city of 
Ft. Stockton in Pecos County, Texas and traverses in a northeasterly 
direction to an interconnect with Transwestern's 24-inch West Texas 
Lateral near the town of Peyote in Ward County, Texas. As a result of 
the sale of the previously attached Gomez Gathering System, 
Transwestern asserts that the Gomez Lateral has been rendered 
underutilized
