E7-15631. Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Limited Waiver of Tariff Provisions

August 3, 2007.

Take notice that on July 31, 2007, pursuant to Rule 207 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 18 CFR 385.207, Northern Natural Gas Company (Northern) tendered for filing a petition for a limited waiver of its FERC Gas Tariff in order to allow Northern to resolve period imbalances with Adams Resources Marketing, Ltd., Anglo-Suisse Texas Offshore Partners, LLC., EOG Resources, Inc., Louis Dreyfus Energy Services, LP, and Superior Natural Gas Corporation without tiering the Monthly Index Price applicable to imbalances as required by the tiering provisions of section 32 of the General Terms and conditions of its tariff.

Northern states that the waiver is requested because the aforementioned parties incurred imbalances as a result of circumstances beyond their control.

Any person desiring to intervene or to protest this filing must file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214). 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 proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a notice of intervention or motion to intervene, as appropriate. Such notices, motions, or protests must be filed on or before the date as indicated below. Anyone filing an intervention or protest must serve a copy of that document on the Applicant. Anyone filing an intervention or protest on or before the intervention or protest date need not serve motions to intervene or protests on persons other than the Applicant.

The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the “eFiling” link at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should submit an original and 14 copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426.
