Florida Gas Transmission Company, LLC; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

    Take notice that on August 2, 2017, Florida Gas Transmission 
Company, LLC (Florida Gas), 1300 Main Street, Houston, Texas 77002, 
filed in the above referenced Docket, a prior notice request pursuant 
to sections 157.205, 157.208, and 157.216 of the Commission's 
regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to 
abandon approximately 6.7 miles of the 8-inch-diameter Rinker Lateral, 
associated measurement and regulation station, and appurtenant 
facilities, all located in Miami-Dade County, Florida (Rinker 
Facilities Abandonment Project), 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, please contact FERC Online Support at 
[email protected] or toll free at (866) 208-3676, or TTY, 
contact (202) 502-8659.
    Any questions concerning this prior notice request should be 
directed to Blair Lichtenwalter, Senior Director of Certificates, 
Florida Gas Transmission Company, LLC, 1300 Main St., Houston, Texas, 
77002, or call (713) 989-2605, or fax (713) 989-1205, or via email 
[email protected].
    Specifically, Florida Gas proposes to abandon in place the Rinker 
Lateral, which originates downstream of Lateral Line Valve (LLV) 20-90B 
at Mile Post 914.0 on Florida Gas's mainline and the Rinker Measurement 
and Regulation Station located at Rinker Portland Cement Corp's plant. 
Florida Gas also proposes to abandon by removal LLV 20-90B. Florida Gas 
states that Rinker Lateral and facilities have not been used to provide 
interruptible or firm transportation in over two years. Florida Gas 
further states that proposed abandonment would eliminate additional 
capital and/or operating expenditures which could potentially result in 
an increased net operating loss for Florida Gas as time goes on.
    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 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 FEIS or EA.
    Any person may, within 60 days after the issuance of the instant 
notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule 214 of the Commission's 
Procedural Rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to intervene or notice of 
intervention. Any person filing to intervene or the Commission's staff 
may, pursuant to section 157.205 of the Commission's Regulations under 
the Natural Gas Act (NGA) (18 CFR 157.205) file a protest to the 
request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefore, the 
proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the day 
after the time allowed for protest. If a protest is filed and not 
withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest, 
the instant request shall be treated as an application for 
authorization pursuant to section 7 of the NGA.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests, and interventions via the internet in lieu of paper. See 18 
CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web 
site (www.ferc.gov) under the e-Filing link.

    Dated: August 11, 2017.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
