Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP98-715-000]
Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket
Authorization
August 14, 1998.
Take notice that on August 10, 1998, Northern Natural Gas Company
(Northern), 1111 South 103rd Street, Omaha, Nebraska 68124-1000, filed
a request with the Commission in Docket No. CP98-715-000, pursuant to
Sections 157.205 and 157.212 of the Commission's Regulations under the
Natural Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to install and operate a new
delivery point and appurtenant facilities, located in Yoakum County,
Texas, authorized in blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-401-
000, all as more fully set forth in the request on file with the
Commission and open to public inspection.
Northern proposes to install and operate a new delivery point and
appurtenant facilities to provide natural gas transportation service to
Golden Spread Electric Cooperative, Inc., Electric Generating
Cooperative, Inc. and Denver City Energy Associates, L.P. (hereinafter
referred to as Golden Spread). Northern would install two (2) taps at
its Plains Compressor Station plus install EFM and scada equipment at a
downstream measurement/interconnect point between Northern's and Golden
Spread's facilities. Northern states that service would be provided to
Golden Spread pursuant to currently effective throughput service
agreement(s). Northern reports that Golden Spread has requested the
proposed delivery point to provide fuel for its Mustang Plant.
Northern further reports that the volumes to be delivered to Golden
Spread would be 90,000 MMBtu on a peak day and 16,420,000 MMBtu on an
annual basis. Northern estimates a facility cost of approximately
$132,000 which would be reimbursed by Golden Spread. Golden Spread
would construct or cause to be constructed, approximately 0.6 miles of
pipeline from the taps to the proposed delivery point at its own
expense.
Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after the
Commission has issued this notice, 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 NGA (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to the request. If
no protest is filed within the allowed time, 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn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 NGA.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
