Western Gas Interstate Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket
Authorization
December 3, 1996.
Take notice that on November 22, 1996, Western Gas Interstate
Company (WGI), 211 North Colorado, Midland, Texas 79701 filed in Docket
No. CP97-115-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205, and 157.211 of
the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205
and 157.211) for approval and permission to construct and operate a
two-inch tap and related facilities for the City of Guymon, Oklahoma
(Guymon), under the blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-441-
000, pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), all as more
fully set forth in the request which is on file with the Commission and
open to public inspection.
WGI states that it proposes to be authorized under its blanket
certificate, facilities that were originally constructed under
emergency authority granted in Subpart I of Part 284 of the
Commission's regulations in Docket No. EM96-5-000. WGI further states
that it only recently acquired its interstate pipeline system,
including the subject facilities, from a subsidiary of the Southern
Union Company. WGI asserts that at the time it acquired these
facilities, WGI's current owner was not aware that the company's
previous owner had failed to take steps to secure appropriate
regulatory approval for the tap, or that service through these
facilities was no longer authorized.
WGI indicates that deliveries to Guymon are currently authorized
under WGI's Rate Schedule FT-N. WGI further indicates that peak day and
annual deliveries are 125 Mcf and 25,000 Mcf, respectively. WGI asserts
that service to Guymon will not affect service to any existing firm
customer.
Any person or the Commission's Staff may, within 45 days after the
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule
214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (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 activities 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn 30 days after the time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.
