Carolina, Inc. for a period effective July
1, 2020 through June 30, 2021, or until
the issuance of a new license for the

that the Commission may ensure
compliance with relevant legal
requirements. An interstate pipeline
that seeks an emergency certificate for

Types of Respondent: Providers and
recipients of assistance in natural gas
emergency circumstances.
