[Docket No. CP03-42-000]


Gulf South Pipeline Company, LP; Notice of Application

February 4, 2003.
    Take notice that on January 24, 2003, Gulf South Pipeline Company, 
LP (Gulf South), 20 East Greenway Plaza, Houston, Texas 77046, filed in 
Docket No. CP03-42-000, an application pursuant to Sections 7(c) of the 
Natural Gas Act (NGA), as amended, and part 157 of the regulations of 
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission), to increase the 
maximum allowable operating pressure (MAOP) of its Index 135 
transmission facility in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana. Gulf South states 
that the increase will provide sufficient pressure to ensure service to 
existing markets, all as more fully set forth in the application which 
is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection. This 
filing is available for review at the Commission or may be viewed on 
the Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``FERRIS'' 
link. Enter the docket number excluding the last three digits in the 
docket number field to access the document. For assistance, please 
contact FERC Online Support at [email protected] or toll-free 
at (866) 208-3676, or for TTY, contact (202) 502-8659.
    Specifically, Gulf South states that the increase in MAOP will 
result in an increase in Index 135's daily design capacity flowing 
north to south, 148 mmcf/d and on the south to north flow, 69 mmcf/d. 
Accordingly, the uprate allows Gulf South to continue to serve its 
traditional markets while augmenting deliverability and delivery by 
utilizing gas flowing from Index 201-9 for north to south flows.
    Any questions concerning this application may be directed to J. 
Kyle Stephens, Director of Certificates, Gulf

    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should file with 
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426, a motion to intervene 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 NGA (18 CFR 
157.10) by the comment date, below. A person obtaining party status 
will be placed on the service list maintained by the Secretary of the 
Commission and will receive copies of all documents filed by the 
applicant and by all other parties. A party must submit 14 copies of 
filings made with the Commission and must mail a copy to the applicant 
and to every other party in the proceeding. Only parties to the 
proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders in the 
proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. 
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will 
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's 
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project 
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly 
involved in the protest.
    Protests and interventions may be filed electronically via the 
Internet in lieu of paper; see 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the 
instructions on the Commission's Web site under the ``e-Filing'' link. 
The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings.
    If the Commission decides to set the application for a formal 
hearing before an Administrative Law Judge, the Commission will issue 
another notice describing that process. At the end of the Commission's 
review process, a final Commission order approving or denying a 
certificate will be issued.
    Comment Date: February 25, 2003.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
