Order Scheduling Initial Settlement Conference, Tennessee Gas Pipeline, RP26-589

FERC issued a procedural order scheduling an Initial Settlement Conference for Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, L.L.C. under Docket RP26-589. This is a standard procedural step in FERC gas rate proceedings, where a settlement judge is appointed to facilitate resolution between parties before litigation.

For affected parties including natural gas shippers, transporters, and energy companies with interests in Tennessee Gas Pipeline rates, this order signals that the case will proceed through settlement discussions. Parties should monitor for subsequent procedural orders establishing the specific date, time, and format of the settlement conference, and should be prepared to participate meaningfully in settlement discussions to resolve disputed rate issues.
