filing may be viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/

Questar proposes to abandon natural gas transportation service
provided to Northwest Pipeline Corporation under Questar's Rate
Schedules X-29, X-30, X-36, X-37, X-38, and X-39 contained in its
respective FERC Gas Tariff, Original Volume No. 3. Questar states that
these service agreements have been inactive for several years and will
never be re-activated. Questar declares that a letter notifying
Northwest of Questar's intent to terminate these agreements was
received and signed by Northwest, evidencing its agreement with the
proposed terminations. Questar requests that authority to abandon the
rate schedules be made effective September 1, 1999. Questar states that
it does not propose to abandon or modify any existing facilities
pursuant to the instant application.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said Application should on or before November 18, 1999,
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street,
NE., Washington, DC 20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in
accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice
and Procedure (18 CFR 383.211 or 18 CFR 385.214) 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.
Take further notice that pursuant to the authority contained in and
subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Commission by Sections 7
and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and the Commission's Rules of Practice
and Procedure, a hearing will be held without further notice before the
Commission or its designee on this Application if no petition to
intervene is filed within the time required herein, if the Commission
on its own review of the matter finds that a grant of the abandonment
is required by the public convenience and necessity. If a petition for
leave to intervene is timely filed, or if the Commission, on its own
motion believes that a formal hearing is required, further notice of
such hearing will be duly given.
Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised,
it will be unnecessary for Applicant to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
