Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, L.L.C. Notice of Application

    Take notice that on February 2, 2012, Tennessee Gas Pipeline 
Company, L.L.C. (Tennessee), 1001 Louisiana Street, Houston, Texas 
77002, filed an application in Docket No. CP12-55-000 pursuant to 
section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) and Part 157 of the 
Commission's regulations, requesting authorization to abandon in place 
and by removal certain inactive supply pipelines and associated 
appurtenances located in the Eugene Island and Ship Shoal Areas in 
Federal offshore waters of the Outer Continental Shelf, Louisiana.

[[Page 8248]]

    Specifically, the facilities to be abandoned include: (1) The

Eugene Island Block (EI) 349 to EI 299; (2) Line No. 523M-8600

approximately 2.19 miles of 6-inch diameter pipeline extending from EI 
342 to a connection with the Triple T Line in EI 342. Tennessee states 
that the facilities have been out of service since January 27, 2011 due 
to uncontrollable corrosion that has resulted in ongoing leakage 
incidents.

    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, on or 
before the comment date stated below, 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 an original and 7 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.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
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 7 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'' link on the web site that enables subscribers to 
receive email notification when a document is added to a subscribed 
docket(s). For assistance with any FERC Online service, please email 
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov, or call (866) 208-3676 (toll free). For 
TTY, call (202) 502-8659.
    Comment Date: February 29, 2012.

    Dated: February 8, 2012.
Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
