[Docket No. CP95-607-000]
Northwest Pipeline Corporation; Request Under Blanket
Authorization
July 17, 1995.
Take notice that on July 10, 1995, Northwest Pipeline Corporation
(Northwest), 295 Chipeta Way, Salt Lake City, Utah 84158, filed in
Docket No. CP95-607-000 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 the
new Western Market Center tap under Northwest's blanket certificate
issued in Docket No. CP82-433-000 pursuant to Section 7 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.
Northwest proposes to construct, own and operate new tap facilities
connecting its mainline transmission system with the Western Market
Center Hub at Muddy Creek (Hub), in Lincoln
[[Page 37636]]
County, Wyoming. Northwest states that the proposed tap facilities will
be located at approximately milepost 437.5 on Northwest's existing 22-
inch Ignacio to Sumas mainline in Section 25, Township 20 North, Range
115 West. Northwest further states that the proposed facilities,
consisting of a 10-inch tap, valves, appurtenances and approximately
100 feet of 10-inch piping, will have the capacity to deliver to or
receive up to approximately 100,000 Dth per day (at 700 psig) to or
from the Hub to be owned and operated by Overland Trail Transmission
Company LP (Overland), an intrastate pipeline. Northwest states that it
will provide transportation service to and from the Hub pursuant to
authorized Rate Schedule TF-1 and TI-1 transportation agreements with
various shippers.
Northwest explains that the proposed tap facilities will be used by
Northwest to deliver to and receive natural gas from a new bi-
directional meter station to be owned and operated by Overland as part
of the Hub, under duly authorized transportation agreements with
various shippers on Northwest's system. It is stated that Northwest and
Overland have entered into a Facilities Agreement dated May 15, 1995,
which provides for Northwest to construct, own and operate the proposed
tap facilities. Northwest further explains that the Hub will provide a
variety of natural gas market hub services to shippers utilizing the
Hub via interconnections with various pipelines. Northwest advises that
Overland's plans for the Hub include interconnections with Colorado
Interstate Gas Company, Kern River Gas Transmission Company and Questar
Pipeline Company, in addition to Northwest.
Northwest states that Overland will reimburse Northwest for the
construction cost of the proposed tap facilities, estimated to be
$157,300.
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 within 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.

Secretary.
