(NGA)as amended, to abandon in place two 1,040-horsepower
(HP)compressor units at Natural's Compressor Station No. 155 near Chico, Wise County, Texas, under Natural's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-402-000, 1 all as more fully set forth in the application which is on file with the Commission and open to the public for inspection. 1 20 FERC ¶ 62,415 (1982). Natural proposes to abandon two 1,040 HP compressor units (Units No. 1 and 2) in place at its Compressor Station No. 155. 2 Natural states that it has not operated compressor Units No. 1 and 2 since 2008 and has held them in reserve since 1986. Natural also states that compressor Units No. 1 and 2 are no longer needed for backup use, are very difficult to start, require continual repair and replacement of deteriorated parts, and are costly to test to assure continue compliance with emissions standards. Natural further states that its proposed abandonment of compressor Units No. 1 and 2 would have no effect on Natural's system capacity or on any of Natural's existing customers. Finally, Natural states that it would cost approximately $10,800,000 to replace the two compressor units with new ones. 2 34 FPC 615 (1965).
