Southern California Gas Company v. El Paso Natural Gas Company; 
Notice of Complaint

October 6, 2000.
    Take notice that on October 4, 2000 pursuant to Rule 206 of the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission's) Rules of Practice 
and Procedure (18 CFR 385.206), Southern California Gas Company 
(SoCalGas) filed a Section 5 Complaint against El Paso Natural Gas 
Company (El Paso).
    Specifically, SoCalGas requests the Commission to issue an order: 
(1) Finding that the SoCalGas/Topock delivery point is fully subscribed 
on a firm primary basis (without determining which shippers hold firm 
primary capacity), and was fully subscribed when capacity was awarded 
commencing January 1, 2000 (Open Season) and subsequently; (2) 
directing El Paso to cease and desist violating express orders and 
regulations by continuing to sell firm primary capacity at the 
SoCalGas/Topock delivery point since no such capacity is available and 
(3) directing El Paso to schedule capacity acquired during the Open 
Season and subsequently into the SoCalGas/Topock delivery point on a 
secondary basis only.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this filing should 
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 such motions 
or protests must be filed on or before October 25, 2000. Protests will 
be considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action 
to be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the 
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a motion to 
intervene. Copies of this filing are on file with the Commission and 
are available for public inspection in the Public Reference Room. This 
filing may also be viewed on the Internet at http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (call 202-208-2222) for assistance. Answers to the
