December 1, 2005.
    Take notice that on November 23, 2005, Southern Natural Gas Company 
(Southern), 1900 Fifth Avenue North, Birmingham, Alabama 35203, filed 
in Docket No. CP06-28-000, an application pursuant to section 7(b) of 
the Natural Gas Act and Part 157 of the regulations of the Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, for an order authorizing Southern to 
abandon approximately 6.86 miles of its 18-inch North Main Loop Line in 
Sharkey County, Mississippi. Southern states that abandonment of this 
Onward North Main Loop Line segment will not affect its ability to 
serve its firm transportation customers. Southern also requested that 
the Commission grant the requested authorization by March 31, 2006, all 
as more fully set forth in the application which is on file with the 
Commission and open to public inspection. This filing may be also 
viewed on the Web at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. 
Enter the docket number excluding the last three digits in the docket 
number field to access the document. For assistance, call (866) 208-
3676 or TTY, (202) 502-8659.
    Any questions regarding this application may be directed to: 
Patrick B. Pope, Vice President and General Counsel, Southern Natural 
Gas Company, PO Box 2563, Birmingham, AL 35202-2563, phone (205) 325-
7126; or Patricia S. Francis, Senior Counsel, Southern Natural Gas 
Company, PO Box 2563, Birmingham, AL 35202-2563, phone (205) 325-7696.
    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, before the 
comment date of this notice, 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). 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.
    Comments, 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.

    Comment Date: December 23, 2005.
Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
