Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America [Docket No. CP95-670-000] Take notice that on August 8, 1995, Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America (Natural), 701 East 22nd Street, Lombard, Illinois 60148, filed in Docket No. CP95-670-000 an application pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act, for permission and approval to abandon, by sale to Shell Offshore Inc.
