[Docket No. CP94-656-000]
General Services Administration; Notice of Application for the
Construction, Operation, Maintenance, and Connection of Facilities for
Importation of Natural Gas at the United States/ Canada International
Boundary
July 18, 1994.
Take notice that on July 12, 1994, the General Services
Administration (GSA), Denver Federal Center, Building 41, Room 200,
P.O. Box 25006, Denver, Colorado, 80225-006, filed an application
pursuant to section 3 of the Natural Gas Act, Executive Order No.
10485, as amended by Executive Order No. 12038; and Delegation Order
No. 0204-112 of the Secretary of Energy. GSA seeks a Presidential
Permit for a point of entry for the importation of natural gas and
section 3 authority to construct, operate, maintain and connect natural
gas import facilities. The proposed facilities will extend from the
Canadian border to the Piegan Immigration and Customs Station near
Babb, Montana. GSA's proposal is more fully set forth in the
application which is on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection.
GSA says the import facilities will consist of 2,155 feet of 1 and
one-half inch pipe. The proposed pipe will deliver up to 146 Mcf per
day to the Piegan Border Station and several adjacent Staff residences.
The estimated cost of the facilities is $12,500. The line will connect
to the facilities of the Chief Mountain Natural Gas Cooperative, who
will also build a tap and meter in Canada. GSA says that natural gas
service is needed to replace propane which currently fuels heating
equipment at the Piegan Border Station. GSA says the current propane
heating system is sub-standard and violates local mechanical codes. The
GSA requests that the Commission grant this application on an expedited
basis.
Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this application
should file a motion to intervene or protest on or before August 1,
1994, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of
Practice and Procedure. All motions to intervene or protests should be
submitted to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 825 North
Capitol Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426. All protests filed will
be considered, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a motion to
intervene in accordance with Rule 214.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
