[Docket No. CP96-751-000]


Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company; Notice of Application

September 5, 1996.
    Take notice that on August 28, 1996, Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line 
Company (Panhandle), P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251-1642 filed in 
Docket No. CP96-751-000 a request for authorization pursuant to Section 
7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission's (Commission) regulations, to operate certain 
existing facilities located in Darke and Shelby Counties, Ohio as NGA 
jurisdictional facilities and to provide NGA jurisdictional service on 
the subject facilities, all as more fully set forth in the application 
which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Panhandle states that it constructed facilities pursuant to Section 
311(a)(1) of the Natural Gas Policy Act (NGPA) and Subpart B of Part 
284 of the Commission's Regulations in Darke and Shelby Counties, Ohio 
in order to provide transportation services for various firm 
transportation and storage customers. Panhandle now requests that these 
facilities (the Glen Karn Pipeline and the Shelby County Pipeline) be 
certificated as jurisdictional and that it be authorized to provide NGA 
jurisdictional services under Section 284 of the Commission's 
regulations.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said application should on or before September 26, 1996, 
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington D.C. 
20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in accordance with the 
requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 
CFR Section 385.211 or Section 385.214) and the Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR Section 157.10). All Protests filed with the 
Commission will be considered by it in determining the appropriate 
action to be taken but will not serve to make the protestants parties 
to the proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party to a proceeding 
or to participate as a party in any hearing therein must file a motion 
to intervene in accordance with the Commission's Rules.
    Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in 
and subject to jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and 
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be 
held without further notice before the Commission or its designee on 
this application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time 
required herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter 
finds that a grant of the certificate is required by the public 
convenience and necessity. If motion for leave to intervene is timely 
filed or if the Commission on its own motion believes that a formal 
hearing is required, further notice of such hearing will be duly given.
    Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised, 
it will be unnecessary for Panhandle to appear or be represented at the 
hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
