[Docket Nos. CP94-608-001, CP94-608-002, CP94-608-003, CP94-608-004]
Northern Natural Gas Co.; Notice of Amendment to Application
October 17, 1994.
Take notice that on October 7, 1994, Northern Natural Gas Company
(Northern), 1111 South 103rd Street, Omaha, Nebraska 68124, filed an
amendment (Amendment) to its original application in Docket No. CP94-
608-000 which was filed pursuant to Section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act
for an order permitting and approving the abandonment by sale to Enron
Gathering Company (EGC), a wholly owned subsidiary of Enron Operations
Corp., certain compression, dehydrating, delivery point and pipeline
facilities, with appurtenances, located in various counties in Texas,
Oklahoma, Kansas, Wyoming and Colorado and services rendered thereby.
Also, in its original application, Northern requests approval
concurrent with the conveyance of the facilities to EGC to abandon
certain agreements and services. Northern states that the Amendment:
(1) Reflects changes in the Amended and Restated Contract for the
Purchase and Sale of Assets, dated September 23, 1994, (Amended
Contract); (2) clarifies certain elements of the original application;
and (3) updated certain exhibits with additional information, all as
more fully set forth in the amendment which is on file with the
Commission and open to public inspection.
Northern states that it is amending the application to divide it
into four parts, identifying the facilities on the basis of geographic
production areas and requests that each partial assignment made by EGC
to its four affiliates be given a separate subdocket to facilitate
review along the geographic lines associated with each affiliate taking
assignment from EGC. Northern indicates that, by assignments dated
September 23, 1994, EGC has assigned the gathering facilities generally
located in: (1) The Anadarko production area to Enron Anadarko
Gathering Corp. (EAGC); (2) the Hugoton production area to Enron
Gathering Limited Partnership (EGLP); (3) the Permian production area
to Enron Permian Gathering Inc. (EPGI), and; (4) the Rocky Mountain
region to Enron Mountain Gathering Inc. (EMGI). Northern states that,
pursuant to the Amended Contract, EGC has made partial assignments of
the gathering facilities to the four separate and distinct regional
entities due to expressions of interest by third parties to purchase
certain of these assets from EGC.
In the Amendment, Northern states that it is also refiling three
large scale maps to make changes and clarifications to symbols,
locations and functions of facilities identified on the maps. Further,
Northern states that it is adding two delivery points on the Brewer
system in the Hugoton production area located in Texas County, Oklahoma
and the Jackson B#1 delivery point in the Anadarko production area
located in Hansford County, Texas. Also, Northern is deleting the
Clinton Oil Company delivery point from its list of delivery points
since it is located on a transmission pipeline that is not included in
the facilities to be abandoned, it is indicated.
Northern states that it is supplementing Exhibit W to replace a
notice of termination of Rate Schedule T-5 with a consent letter to
terminate Rate Schedule T-5 between Northern and Mobil Oil Corporation.
Also, Northern states it is amending Exhibit U to delete its request to
abandon Northern's Rate Schedule X-38 since the abandonment
authorization has been requested in a separate proceeding.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said amendment should on or before November 7, 1994, file
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20426,
a motion to intervene or a protest in accordance with the requirements
of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or
385.211) and the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10).
All protests filed with the Commission will be considered by it in
determining the appropriate action to be taken but will not serve to
make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to
become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a party in any
hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in accordance with the
Commission's Rules. All persons who have heretofore filed need not file
again.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
