Transok, L.L.C.; Notice of Application

August 9, 2001
    Take notice that on July 18, 2001, Transok, L.L.C. (Transok) filed 
an abbreviated application pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas 
Act (NGA) for issuance to Transok of a limited-jurisdiction certificate 
of public convenience and necessity authorizing Transok to lease 
capacity on its intrastate pipeline system for use by Ozark Gas 
Transmission, L.L.C. to provide interstate storage and no-notice 
transportation services.
    Transok is an intrastate pipeline that provides natural gas 
transportation and storage service under Section 311 of the Natural Gas 
Policy Act of 1978. Ozark is an interstate pipeline providing service 
in Oklahoma, Arkansas and Missouri.
    Transok seeks issuance of a limited jurisdiction certificate of 
public convenience and necessity under NGA Section 7(c) to the extent 
required to enable Transok to lease pipeline capacity to Ozark which 
Ozark will use in the transportation of gas in interstate commerce. 
Transok submits that the lease of pipeline capacity is necessary to 
enable Ozark to offer its proposed new No-Notice, Firm Storage and 
Interruptible Storage Services. Transok states that it will not be in a 
position to enter into and perform the proposed pipeline capacity lease 
unless it is granted a limited jurisdiction certificate that will 
permit the leased capacity to be used in the transportation of natural 
gas in interstate commerce without generally subjecting Transok to NGA 
jurisdiction.
    Questions concerning this filing may be directed to counsel for 
Ozark, James F. Bowe, Jr., Dewey Ballantine LLP, at (202) 429-1444, fax 
(202) 429-1579, or [email protected].
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said application should on or before August 30, 2001, file 
with the Federal Energy
