Accordingly, based on the date we received notice of the waiver,\nit cannot become effective until July 6, 1976, unless we notify you before that date that we have\nno objection to the waiver. We have assigned your letter Docket No. TN-76-1.\nIt would facilitate our review of this matter if you would send us a copy of (1) the petition filed by\nthe gas companies, (2) a description of each company's pipelines to which the waiver applies, and\n(3) for each company, the reasons why the Commission found that an extension of time is\nappropriate.\nSincerely,\nCesar DeLeon\nActing Director\nOffice of Pipeline\nSafety Operations\ndal\\192\\457\\76-06-10\n1","truncated":false,"body_characters":1246}
