Northwest Pipeline Corp.; Notice of Application

February 3, 1995.
    Take notice that on January 31, 1995, Northwest Pipeline 
Corporation (Northwest), 295 Chipeta Way, Salt Lake City, Utah 84158, 
filed in Docket No. CP95-190-000 an application pursuant to Section 
7(c) of the National Gas Act for a certificate of public convenience 
and necessity authorizing it to construct and operate certain pipeline 
loop facilities located in Whatcom County, Washington to enhance the 
reliability of service to its existing customers, all as more fully set 
forth in the application on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection.
    Northwest proposes to construct and operate 550 feet of 30-inch 
pipeline loop and associated valves beginning at the outlet of its 
existing Sumas Meter Station and extending to the point of origin of 
the existing 30-inch mainline loop upstream of its Sumas Compressor 
Station ``B'' Plant compressors all located within its existing Sumas 
Compressor Station site (milepost 1484.5). Northwest states that the 
proposed pipeline looping will complete its 30-inch mainline loop 
between its Sumas Meter Station and its Sumas Compressor Station and 
will enhance the reliability of service to its shippers receiving 
Canadian gas supplies. Northwest estimates that the cost of the 
proposed facilities will be $553,200.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said application should on or before February 24, 1995, 
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 or 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 a grant of the certificate 
is 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 Northwest to appear or be represented at the 
hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
