[Docket No. CP95-514-000]
Take notice that on May 24, 1995, Northern Natural Gas Company
(Northern), P.O. Box 3330, Omaha, Nebraska 68103-0330, filed in Docket
No. CP95-514-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 157.212 of
the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205
and 157.212) for authorization to upgrade an existing delivery point to
accommodate increased natural gas deliveries to Northern States Power--
Wisconsin (NSP-W), for delivery at the Hudson town border station,
located in St. Croix County, Wisconsin, under the blanket certificate
issued in Docket No. CP82-401-000, pursuant to Section 7(c) of the
Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request which is on
file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
Northern states that NSP-W has requested the upgrade of the
delivery point to accommodate growth of gas requirements in this area.
Northern asserts that the proposed peak day volumes will increase from
8,500 Mcf to 12,000 Mcf and the annual volumes will increase from
1,100,000 Mcf to 2,444,000 Mcf and will be used for residential,
commercial and industrial consumption. Northern claims that the
deliveries of the estimated volumes to NSP-W at the upgraded delivery
point will be made pursuant to Northern's currently effective
throughput service agreements with NSP-W.
Northern estimates that the proposed cost to upgrade the delivery
point is $181,000 and NSP-W will reimburse Northern for the cost of
upgrading the delivery point.
Northern states that the delivery of NSP-W's volumes will impact
Northern's peak day and annual deliveries. Northern claims that the
total volumes to be delivered to the customer after the request do not
exceed the total volumes authorized prior to the request. Northern
claims that the proposed activity is not prohibited by its existing
tariff and that it has sufficient capacity to accommodate the proposed
changes without detriment to Northern's other customers.
