Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation; Notice of Application 
for Abandonment of Service

April 8, 2004.
    Take notice that on March 30, 2004, Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line 
Corporation (Transco), filed in Docket No. CP04-93-000 an application, 
in abbreviated form, pursuant to section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act, 
as amended, and part 157 of the rules and regulations of the Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, for an order permitting and approving 
abandonment of certain firm sales service provided to Southern Union 
Company (Southern Union) under Transco's Rate Schedule FS. In such 
application, Transco states that it entered into a firm sales agreement 
with Pennsylvania Gas & Water Company on August 1, 1991, under which 
Transco sells gas to Southern Union, successor to Pennsylvania Gas & 
Water Company, under Rate Schedule FS, with Buyer's Daily Sales 
Entitlement amount listed on Exhibit ``A'' to the agreement (FS 
Agreement).
    Transco states that the Primary Term of the FS Agreement ended on 
March 31, 2001. By letter dated March 25, 2003, Transco provided 
Southern Union with a two-year notice to terminate the subject FS 
Agreement as of April 1, 2005.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, in 
accordance with sections 385.214 or 385.211 of the Commission's rules 
and regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed on or 
before the date as indicated below. 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 proceedings. Any person 
wishing to become a party must file a motion to intervene. This filing 
is available for review at the Commission in the Public Reference Room 
or may be viewed on the Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov 
using the eLibrary. Enter the docket number excluding the last three 
digits in the docket number field to access the document. For

    Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in 
and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the 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 on this application if no petition is filed 
within the time required herein, and the Commission on its own review 
of the matter finds that a grant of the abandonment is required by the 
public convenience and necessity. If a protest or petition 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 this procedure, unless otherwise 
advised, it will be unnecessary for Transco to appear or to be 
represented at the hearing.
    Comment Date: April 23, 2004.

Acting Secretary.
