The applicants also request that the Commission grant Carolina Gas a blanket certificate authorizing Carolina Gas to transport gas on behalf of others pursuant to subpart G, section 284.221 of the Commission’s regulations; and a blanket certificate authorizing certain construction and operation of facilities and abandonment under NGA section 7 pursuant to subpart F, sections 157.201– 218 of the Commission’s regulations. Importantly, pursuant to sections 385.207(a)(5) and 385.602, the applicants also include an Offer of Settlement for the Commission’s acceptance of a Stipulation and Agreement, which is a negotiated resolution of the matters arising in connection with the applicants’ requests for certificate and abandonment authority. The applicants say that the terms and conditions of the settlement PO 00000 Frm 00013 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 12345 are the product of substantial intercustomer negotiation and compromise, as well as negotiation and compromise between the applicants and their customers.

Docket No. CP06–72–000 is assigned to the part 157, subpart F blanket certificate request and Docket No. CP06–73–000 is assigned to the part 284, subpart G blanket certificate request. The Offer of Settlement encompasses and is related to all three dockets. The applicants say that upon Commission approval of the authorizations they request, SCG, currently an interstate pipeline regulated by the FERC, will merge into SCPC, currently a non-FERC jurisdictional intrastate pipeline. SCPC intrastate services will end on the merger effective date. SCPC will relinquish its Hinshaw exemption, become subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction over interstate pipelines, and change its name to Carolina Gas Transmission Corporation. Following the merger, the resulting entity, Carolina Gas, will own and operate all of the facilities that were owned and operated by SCG and SCPC at the time of the merger. The applicants says that the resulting Carolina Gas pipeline will be a reticulated web-like system providing open access, unbundled, firm and interruptible transportation services and interruptible parking and lending service for interstate gas markets. Carolina Gas will transport gas supplies received from the Southern Natural Gas Company and Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation pipelines, which access various gas supply regions including the Gulf Coast, north Louisiana and north Texas, as well as LNG supplied at Elba Island, Georgia. They say that the Carolina Gas system will increase natural gas supply diversity and competition in and beyond the southeastern United States and provide much needed interstate infrastructure without the delay, uncertainty and environmental disturbances inherent in a new construction project. Any person desiring to intervene or to protest this filing must file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of E:\FR\FM\10MRN1.SGM 10MRN1
