Services Company, 69 FERC para.61,280 (1994), for authorization to 
terminate service through two gathering areas--the Panhandle Gathering 
Area located in Carson, Moore, Hutchinson and Gray Counties, Texas, and

Counties, Texas.
    Collectively these two gathering areas are referred to as the West

affiliate. On August 26, 1999, Natural received authorization in Docket

certificated facilities within the West Panhandle Gathering System.
    Natural states that copies of the filing are being mailed to the 
customers which are currently receiving service in the West Panhandle 
Gathering System and interested state commissions.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Washington, DC 20426, in 
accordance with Sections 385.214 or 385.211 of the Commission's Rules 
and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed in 
accordance with Section 154.210 of the Commission's Regulations. 
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 proceedings. Any person wishing to become a party must 
file a motion to intervene. Copies of this filing are on file with the 
Commission and are available for public inspection in the Public 
Reference Room. This filing may be viewed on the Web at http://
