[Docket No. RP98-247-000]
Northwest Alaskan Pipeline Company; Notice of Proposed Changes in
FERC Gas Tariff
June 12, 1998.
Take notice that on June 9, 1998, Northwest Alaskan Pipeline
Company (Northwest Alaskan) tendered for filing to become part of its
FERC Gas Tariff, Original Volume No. 2, the following tariff sheets,
with the proposed effective date of October 1, 1998:
Original Sheet Nos. 124DN-124DQ
First Revised Sheet No. 219
Original Sheet Nos. 220-223
First Revised Sheet No. 317
Original Sheet Nos. 318-321
Fifth Revised Sheet No. 400
Northwest Alaskan states that this filing is being made to reflect
the proposed abandonment and tariff termination of Rate Schedule X-4
and tariff revisions to Rate Schedules X-1, X-2 and X-3 to implement,
in part, a broader transaction which is intended to restructure the
arrangements among Northwest Alaskan, its supplier, Pan-Alberta Gas
Ltd. (Pan-Alberta) and its purchaser, PITCO. In brief, this transaction
would restructure the sale such that Northwest Alaskan's rights and
obligations under the Gas Sales Contract dated March 9, 1978, by and
between Northwest Alaskan and Pan-Alberta, as amended (WesternContract)
will be assigned to and assumed by Pan-Alberta Gas U.S. (PAG-US);
Northwest Alaskan's related sale to PITCO and PITCO's related sale to
Southern California Gas Company (``SoCalGas'') will be terminated; and
PAG-US will enter into a new contract directly with SoCalGas for the
sale of a portion of the gas. In addition, PITCO will transfer its
current pipeline capacity rights on the PG&E Gas Transmission-Northwest
Pipeline Corporation (PGT) and Northwest Pipeline Corporation systems
to PAG-US.
Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this filing should
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426,
in accordance with Sections 385.214 and 385.211 of the Commission's
Rules and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed as
provided in Section 154.210 of the Commission's Regulations. Protests
will be considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate
action to be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to
the proceedings. Any person wishing to become a party must file a
motion to intervene. Copies of this filing are on file with the
Commission and are available for public inspection in the Public
Reference Room.
