[Docket No. CP97-635-000]


ANR Pipeline Company Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation; 
Notice of Application

July 22, 1997.
    Take notice that on July 11, 1997, ANR Pipeline Company (ANR), 500 
Renaissance Center, Detroit, Michigan 48243, and Transcontinental Gas 
Pipe Line Corporation (Transco); Post Office Box 1396, Houston, Texas 
77251, (jointly referred to as Applicants), filed in Docket No. CP97-
635-000, an application pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act 
for permission and approval to abandon a natural gas transportation and 
exchange service between Applicants, all as more fully set forth in the 
application on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Applicants state that they propose to abandon service authorized 
under ANR's Rate Schedule X-73 and Transco's Rate Schedule X-195. 
Applicants further state that they do not propose to abandon any 
facilities.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make protest with reference 
to said application should on or before August 12, 1997, 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 385.214 or 
385.211) and the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). 
All protests filed with the Commission will 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 the 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 permission and approval for the proposed abandonment are 
required by the public convenience and necessity. If a 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 provided for, unless 
otherwise advised, it will be unnecessary for Applicants to appear or 
be represented at the hearing.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
