Louisiana State Gas, LLC; Petition for Rate Approval

June 8, 1999.
    Take notice that on May 28, 1999, Louisiana State Gas, LLC 
(Louisiana State), filed a petition for rate approval to reduce the 
existing maximum rate for interruptible transportation on its South 
Louisiana Pipeline System from $0.0642 per MMBtu to $0.0597 per MMBtu. 
The rate pertains to transportation performed under Section 311 of the 
Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978. The filing was made to comply with the 
Commission's October 20, 1997, order in Docket No. PR96-9-000.
    Louisiana State is a subsidiary of LEDCO, LLC. Louisiana State 
states that its South Louisiana Pipeline System consists of 
approximately 34 miles of mainly 12-inch pipeline extending westward 
from a point near Buras, Louisiana, to the Barateria Waterway near 
Grand Isle, Louisiana, to the Barateria Waterway near Grand Isle, 
Louisiana. Louisiana adds that all piping and related facilities in the 
system are located in Bastion Bay, which is a coastal salt marsh 
accessible only by plane or boat. Louisiana State's only Section 311 
shipper is LEDCO.
    Pursuant to Section 284.123(b)(2)(ii), if the Commission does not 
act within 150 days of the filing date, the proposed rate for 
transportation service will be deemed fair and equitable. The 
Commission may, prior to the expiration of the 150-day period, extend 
the time for action or institute a proceeding to afford parties an 
opportunity for written comments and for the oral presentations of 
views, data, and arguments. Any person desiring to participate in this 
rate proceeding must file a motion to intervene or protest with the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., 
Washington, D.C. 20426, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and 
385.214). All motions must be filed with the Secretary of the 
Commission on or before June 28, 1999. The petition for rate approval 
is on file with the Commission and is available for public inspection.
