[Docket No. PR09-10-000]


Michigan Consolidated Gas Company; Notice of Petition for Rate
Approval

January 9, 2009.
    Take notice that on December 23, 2008, Michigan Consolidated Gas
Company (MichCon) filed a petition for rate approval pursuant to
Section 284.123(b)(2) of the Commission's Regulations for authorization
to charge market-based rates for the interstate storage and storage-
related services MichCon provides under its Order No. 63 blanket
certificate.

[[Page 2586]]

    MichCon requests approval of its proposed rates as being fair and
equitable on the basis of a showing that it lacks market power and that
competitive forces will constrain the rates it charges.
    MichCon states that it is a Hinshaw pipeline, within the meaning of
Section 1(c) of the Natural Gas Act, and that it has been granted an
Order No. 63 blanket certificate to provide interstate transportation
and storage services. MichCon proposes to make its market-based rates
effective as of December 23, 2008.
    Any person desiring to participate in this rate proceeding must
file a motion to intervene or to protest this filing in accordance with
Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure
(18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214). 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 notice of intervention or motion
to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices, motions, or protests must
be filed on or before the date as indicated below. Anyone filing an
intervention or protest must serve a copy of that document on the
Applicant. Anyone filing an intervention or protest on or before the
intervention or protest date need not serve motions to intervene or
protests on persons other than the Applicant.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and
interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link at http://
www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should submit an
original and 14 copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC
20426.
    This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov, using the
``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the Commission's
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an ``eSubscription''
