[Docket No. CP97-88-000]
Northwest Pipeline Corporation; Notice of Request Under Blanket
Authorization
November 19, 1996.
Take notice that on November 12, 1996, Northwest Pipeline
Corporation (Northwest), 295 Chipeta Way, Salt Lake City, Utah 84158,
filed in Docket No. CP97-88-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205,
157.211 and 157.216 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural
Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.211 and 157.216) for authorization to
upgrade its Spokane West Meter Station in Spokane County, Washington by
partially abandoning certain existing facilities and constructing and
operating upgraded replacement facilities under Northwest's blanket
certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-433-000 pursuant to Section 7 of
the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request that is
on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
Northwest proposes to upgrade the Spokane West Meter Station by
removing the two existing 6-inch turbine meters, the existing 750,000
Btu per hour heater and approximately 250 feet of existing 4-inch inlet
piping and appurtenances and installing two new 8-inch turbine meters,
a 1,900,000 Btu per hour heater, a new 6-inch tap valve on the lateral
line and approximately 200 feet of 6-inch inlet piping and
appurtenances.
Northwest states that the meter station upgrade is necessary to
accommodate a request by The Washington Water Power Company for
increased delivery point capacity at this point for service under
existing firm transportation agreements.
Northwest states that as a result of the proposed upgrade, the
maximum design capacity of the meter station will increase from
approximately 18,733 Dth per day at 250 psig to approximately 34,945
Dth per day at 250 psig.
Northwest estimates the total cost of the proposed meter station
upgrade to be approximately $357,400.
Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule
214 of the Commission's Procedural Rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to
intervene or notice of intervention and pursuant to Section 157.205 of
the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to
the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor,
the proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the
day after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a protest is filed
and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for
authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
