[Federal Register Volume 60, Number 144 (Thursday, July 27, 1995)] [Notices] [Pages 38552-38553] From the Federal Register Online via the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] [FR Doc No: 95-18418] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY [Docket No. RP95-387-000] Hanley and Bird, Inc. v. CNG Transmission Corporation; Notice of Complaint July 21, 1995. Take notice that on July 14, 1995, Hanley and Bird, Inc. (Hanley), pursuant to Section 5 of the Natural Gas [[Page 38553]] Act (NGA), 717d, and Section 206 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.206, filed a complaint seeking resumption of certain end-user interruptible transportation and capacity release service, and relief from allegedly unlawful, unduly discriminatory and anticompetitive practices by CNG Transmission Corporation (CNG) in violation of NGA Sections 5 and 7, the antitrust laws, Commission policy, and the nomination procedures of CNG's FERC GAS Tariff. Hanley complains that CNG has unlawfully tied entitlement to a small customer, one-part, volumetric (FT(SC)) rate to the requirement that Hanley must first ship 10,000 Dth of gas per day (Hanley's contractual reservation level) before CNG will allow unaffiliated and independent shippers behind Hanley's city-gate to nominate and ship interruptible transportation (IT) or released capacity gas in their own names to Hanley's delivery points on CNG. Hanley also complains that CNG delayed implementation of Hanley's timely request for FT(SC) rates for the month of June 1995, until July 1, 1995, because notice was not received until after CNG confirmed nominations for June 1995 services. Hanley requests that the Commission (1) direct CNG to provide IT and capacity release service to the end-users behind Hanley's city- gate, (2) enforce Hanley's election of FT(SC) rates for the month of June 1995 as timely received, or, alternatively, as a cognizable intra- month revision to Hanley's prior nomination for that month, and (3) exercise its authority under NGA Section 16 to cure all damages to Hanley and the end-users caused by CNG's unlawful practices. Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said complaint should file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 825 North Capitol Street NE., Washington, DC 20426, in accordance with Rules 214 and 211 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure 18 CFR 385.214, 385.211. All such motions or protests should be filed on or before August 21, 1995. 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 motion to intervene. Copies of this filing are on file with the Commission and are available for public inspection. Answers to this complaint shall be due on or before August 21, 1995. Linwood A. Watson, Jr., Acting Secretary. [FR Doc. 95-18418 Filed 7-26-95; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 6717-01-M
