Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company, LP; Notice of Application
Take notice that on December 19, 2013, Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line
Company, LP (Panhandle), 1300 Main Street, Houston Texas 77002, filed
an application pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act and Part
157 of the Commission's Regulations, for authorization to abandon the
remaining reciprocating compressor units and ancillary equipment at the
Mouser Compressor Station located in Texas County, Oklahoma. The filing
may also be viewed on the Web at http://www.ferc.gov using the
``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket number excluding the last three

assistance, contact FERC at [email protected] or call toll-

Any questions regarding this application should be directed to
Stephen Veatch, Senior Director of Certificates, Panhandle Eastern Pipe
Line Company, LP, 1300 Main Street, Houston, Texas 77002. Telephone
(713) 989-2024, fax (713) 989-1205, and email:
[email protected].
Specifically, Panhandle proposes to abandon all above and below
ground facilities at the Mouser Compressor Station, with the exception
of the Mouser CTM (13858) and the 16-inch Hooker Lateral (43-
02-044-001). The abandonment includes the removal of seven existing
compressor units totaling 4,594 horsepower. In addition, Panhandle will
install a 10-foot segment of 10-inch pipe between the existing 16-inch
suction line and the existing 10-inch discharge line in order to
maintain production into the existing Hooker Lateral. All project
activity will be confined to the 5.21-acre boundary of the station yard
and cost approximately $382,985.
Pursuant to Section 157.9 of the Commission's rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the Commission staff will either:
Complete its environmental assessment (EA) and place it into the
Commission's public record (eLibrary) for this proceeding, or issue a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the final environmental impact statement (FEIS) or EA for this
proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's public record for
this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of Schedule will serve to
notify federal and state agencies of the timing for the completion of
all necessary reviews, and the subsequent need to complete all federal
authorizations within 90 days of the date of issuance of the Commission
staff's FEIS or EA.
There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project
[[Page 2431]]
should, on or before the comment date stated below, file with the
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., Washington,
DC 20426, a motion to intervene in accordance with the requirements of
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must
submit 5 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders
in the proceeding.
However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project.
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly
involved in the protest.
Persons who wish to comment only on the environmental review of
this project should submit an original and two copies of their comments
to the Secretary of the Commission. Environmental commenters will be
placed on the Commission's environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents, and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission's environmental review process.
Environmental commenters will not be required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commenters will
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by
the Commission (except for the mailing of environmental documents
issued by the Commission) and will not have the right to seek court
review of the Commission's final order.
Motions to intervene, protests and comments may be filed
electronically via the internet in lieu of paper; see, 18 CFR
385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web site
under the ``e-Filing'' link. The Commission strongly encourages
electronic filings.
Comment Date: 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on January 24, 2014.
Dated: January 3, 2014..
Nathaniel J. Davis, Sr.,
Deputy Secretary.
