78 Fed. Reg. 62614 (Oct. 22, 2013)

Take notice that on October 15, 2013, Guttman Energy, Inc. and PBF Holding Company LLC (Complainants) submitted for filing with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (Commission) a complaint against Buckeye Pipe Line Company L.P. and Laurel Pipe Line Company L.P. (Respondents) challenging the rates charged by the Respondents for pipeline transportation of petroleum products from Chelsea Junction, Pennsylvania, to delivery points in Pennsylvania on the grounds that (1) the Respondents are unlawfully charging interstate tariff rates for intrastate transportation, (2) the pertinent interstate rates are excessive, unjust and unreasonable, (3) the pertinent market-based rates of Buckeye are no longer justified because, as a result of changed circumstances, Buckeye does not, in fact, lack significant market power, and (4) the Respondents' collection of interstate rates which are higher than intrastate rates for the same service is unduly and unreasonably preferential and discriminatory, all in violation of the Interstate Commerce Act.

The Complainants state that copies of the complaint were served on the Respondents.
