[Docket No. CP18-540-000]


Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company, LP; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

    Take notice that on August 17, 2018, Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line 
Company, LP (Panhandle), 1300 Main Street, Houston, Texas 77002, filed 
in Docket No. CP18-540-000, a Prior Notice Request pursuant to sections 
157.205, and 157.216 of the Commission's regulations under the Natural 
Gas Act (NGA), and Panhandle's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. 
CP83-83-000, requesting approval to abandon by sale to ETC Field 
Services LLC, the Deer Loop Lateral Facilities, consisting of 
approximately 20.64 miles of 12.75-inch diameter pipeline and 
appurtenances, located in Carson, Hutchinson and Moore Counties, Texas 
(Deer Loop Lateral Abandonment Project).
    The Deer Loop Lateral was originally constructed to transport high-
pressure gas from Panhandle's Deer Compressor Station to its Sneed 
Compressor Station, allowing existing Deer to Sneed facilities to 
operate as a lower-pressure gathering system.\1\ Over the years, 
Panhandle abandoned or spun off its facilities located upstream of the 
Deer Loop Lateral when Panhandle abandoned its gathering function. 
Available supply in the vicinity upstream of the Deer Loop Lateral has 
steadily declined, and in recent years, the line has transported no 
significant volume. On June 1, 2018, Panhandle and ETC Field Services 
executed an Asset Sale Agreement (Agreement) in which Panhandle agreed 
to sell the Deer Loop Lateral to ETC Field Services. Panhandle states 
that, upon Commission approval and closing of the sale, ETC Field 
Services will physically integrate the Deer Loop Lateral into its non-
jurisdictional gathering operations.

[[Page 44614]]

Panhandle states that authorization of the requested abandonment will 
allow it to avoid the operating and maintenance costs associated with 
these facilities and allow ETC Field Services to avoid construction of 
duplicative pipeline facilities and allow the continued use of existing 
pipeline facilities as part of its non-jurisdictional gathering system 
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

    Any questions regarding this prior notice request may be directed 
to Blair Lichtenwalter, Senior Director, Certificates, Panhandle 
Eastern Pipe Line Company, LP, by phone at (713) 989-2605 or by email 
at [email protected] or Irma S. Jarrett, Manager, 
Certificates, Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company, LP, 1300 Main 
Street, Houston, Texas 77002 by phone at (713) 989-7679 (telephone), or 
by email at [email protected].
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 60 days after 
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 and pursuant to section 157.205 of 
the regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.205), 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 filing a protest. If a protest is filed and 
not withdrawn within 30 days after the allowed time for filing a 
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for 
authorization pursuant to section 7 of the NGA.
    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.
    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.
    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 seven copies of the protest or intervention to 
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street NE, 
Washington, DC 20426.

    Dated: August 24, 2018.
