The Notice states that, while Columbia Gas “restored the notices of the auctions to the public side of Navigates on May 1, 2013,” its “failure to post the notices . . . on its public website for a period of four years posed a serious threat to transparency in the market, and may have compromised [FERC’s] open-access transportation requirements.” The Notice does not provide any additional details regarding the investigation, allegations or potential penalties.
