[Docket No. CP98-229-000]
Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Application
February 23, 1998.
Take notice that on February 13, 1998, Northern Natural Gas Company
(Northern), 1111 South 103rd Street, Omaha, Nebraska 68124, filed in
Docket No. CP98-229-000 an application pursuant to Section 7(b) of the
Natural Gas Act for permission and approval to abandon by sale to K N
Gas Gathering, Inc. (KN), certain pipeline and receipt and delivery
point facilities, with appurtenances, located in Texas County, Oklahoma
and Seward County, Kansas and certain services rendered thereby, all as
more fully set forth in the application which is on file with the
Commission and open to public inspection.
Northern states that it would convey to KN, facilities consisting
of approximately 33 miles of pipeline with diameters ranging between 10
and 24 inches, all receipt and delivery points located along the length
of the pipelines, and all other appurtenant facilities.
Northern states further that the facilities would be conveyed to KN
for an estimated purchase price of $1,632,216 at the time of closing.
Any person desiring to be heard or any person desiring to make any
protest with reference to said application should on or before March
16, 1998, 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 and 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.
Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in
and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy
Regulatory 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 motion to intervene is filed within the time
required herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter
finds that permission and approval for the proposed abandonment are
required by the public convenience and necessity. If a motion 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 Northern to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
David P. Boergers,
Acting Secretary.
