[Docket No. CP17-450-000]


Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Company, LLC; Notice of 
Application

    Take notice that on May 25, 2017, Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 
Company, LLC (Transco), P.O. Box 1396, Houston, Texas 77251, filed in 
Docket No. CP17-450-000 an application pursuant to section 7(b) of the 
Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of the Commission's regulations, 
requesting authorization to abandon in place its offshore gathering 
laterals extending from Brazos Block A-133A to Brazos Block 538. The 
gathering facilities proposed to be abandon are located on Transco's 
Central Texas Gathering System (CTGS) in federal waters offshore Texas.
    Specifically, Transco proposes to abandon the CTGS West Facilities 
that consist of: (i) A 10.72-mile, 20-inch offshore gathering lateral 
extending from Brazos Block A-133A platform to the Brazos Block A-76 
subsea tie-in, and (ii) a 30-mile, 20-inch offshore gathering lateral 
extending from the Brazos Block A-76 subsea tie-in to the Brazos Block 
538 platform. Transco states that the abandonment of the CTGS West 
Facilities will have no impacts on the upstream shippers as the 
approximately 35,000 dekatherms per day that currently flows on these 
laterals will be re-routed to an existing parallel line. Transco 
estimates the cost of the abandonment of the CTGS West Facilities to be 
approximately $2.9 million, all as more fully set forth in the 
application which is on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection. 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 digits in the docket number field to access 
the document. For assistance, contact FERC at 
[email protected] or call toll-free, (866) 208-3676 or TYY, 
(202) 502-8659.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to 
Charlotte Hutson, Director Rates & Regulatory, Transcontinental Gas 
Pipe Line Company, LLC, P.O. Box 1396, Houston, Texas 77251-1396, by 
telephone at (713) 215-4060, or by email at 
[email protected].
    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 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 for Environmental Review 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 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 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 five 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 commentors 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 commentors will not be required to serve copies of filed 
documents on all other parties. However, the non-party commentors will 
not receive copies of all documents filed by other parties or issued by 
the Commission (except for the mailing of

[[Page 26479]]

environmental documents issued by the Commission) and will not have the 
right to seek court review of the Commission's final order.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link 
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should 
submit an original and five copies of the protest or intervention to 
the Federal Energy regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE., 
Washington, DC 20426.
    Comment Date: 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time June 22, 2017.
