Description
Argued September 24, 1999 Petitions for Review of Orders of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission Opinion filed by Senior Judge Buckley. Midcoast Interstate Transmission, Inc., and two unincorporated associations have filed petitions for review of Federal Energy Regulatory Commission orders granting Southern Natural Gas Company's application to construct a natural gas pipeline and denying Midcoast's alternative proposals for serving the same markets. Petitioners claim that the Commission failed to make a reasoned evaluation of the competing environmental and economic factors and that its approval of ""rolled-in"" rates for Southern's project ignored the agency's own policy and precedent. Because we conclude that the Commission neither abused its discretion nor acted contrary to law, we deny the petitions.
