[Docket No. CP98-221-000]
Iroquois Gas Transmission System L.P.; Notice of Request Under
Blanket Authorization
February 13, 1998.
Take notice that on February 6, 1998, Iroquois Gas Transmission
System, L.P. (Iroquois), One Corporate Drive, Suite 600, Shelton,
Connecticut 06484, filed in Docket No. CP98-221-000 a request pursuant
to Sections 157.205 and 157.211 of the Commission's Regulations under
the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.211) for authorization to
construct and operate a third meter run at its existing Northport Meter
Station, located in Suffolk County, New York, to permit additional
capability to serve Long Island Lighting Company (LILCO), under
Iroquois' blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP89-634-000,
pursuant to Section 7(c) 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.
Iroquois proposes to construct and operate a third meter run at
Iroquois; Northport Meter Station, located in Suffolk County, New York,
to provide additional capacity to serve LILCO at that delivery point.
LILCO proposes the conversion of an existing 380 MW generating unit at
its Northport Power Station to provide it with dual fuel capability and
the addition of a third meter run would provide additional capacity at
the meter station to meet LILCO's planned requirements. Iroquois
declares the third meter run would increase the delivery capability at
the Northport Meter Station from approximately 213 MMcf to
approximately 312 MMcf per day.
Iroquois states the estimated cost of the third meter run is
$190,000, which will be recovered through the provision of additional
deliveries to LILCO.
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and not withdrawn 30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.
David P. Boergers,
Acting Secretary.
