The stipulation is contingent upon Commission approval, including Commission recognition of Texas Eastern's right to recover the exit fee paid to Columbia Gulf as a stranded Account No. 858 cost pursuant to Order No. 636 and/or pursuant to Texas Eastern's global settlement approved by the Commission on May 12, 1994, in Docket No. RP85-177-119, et al. Columbia Gulf also seeks Section 7(b) abandonment authorization for the two contracts. Any person desiring to be heard or to protest the petition should file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 825 North Capitol Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure.
