Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP95-194-007]
Northern Border Pipeline Company; Notice of Amendment
September 18, 1998.
Take notice that on September 17, 1998, Northern Border Pipeline
Company (Northern Border), 1111 South 103rd Street, Omaha, Nebraska
68124-1000, filed in Docket No. CP95-194-007 an amendment pursuant to
Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act and Part 157 of the Commission's
regulations, to amend its certificate issued at Docket No. CP95-194-
000, et al. on August 1, 1997 in order to place certain compressor
stations in-service prior to the in-service date of its Expansion/
Extension Project, all as more fully set forth in the amendment which
is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
Specifically, Northern Border seeks to place Compressor Stations 3
and 5 in-service at the earliest possible date in order that
construction at Compressor Stations 2 and 4 can be completed without
impact to existing firm shippers. Northern Border states that
Compressor Stations 3 and 5 will be subject to the accounting treatment
authorized in ordering paragraph (H) of the August 1 Order.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said application, should on or before September 25, 1998,
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street,
N.W., Washington, D.C. 20426, a petition to intervene or a protest in
accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice
and Procedure (Rule 210, 211, or 214) and regulations under the Natural
Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). All protests filed with the Commission will be
considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be taken but
will not serve to make the protestants parties to the proceedings. Any
person wishing to become a party to the proceeding or to participate as
a party in any hearing therein must file a petition to intervene in
accordance with the Commission's rules.
Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in
and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act, as
amended, and the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a
hearing will be held without further notice before the Commission, or
its delegate, on this application if no petition to intervene is filed
within the time required herein, if the Commission on its own review of
the matter finds that the certificate is required by the public
convenience and necessity.
If a petition for leave to intervene is timely filed, or if the
Commission on its own motion believes that an oral hearing is required,
further notice of such hearing will be duly given.
Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised,
it will be unnecessary for Northern Border to appear or be represented
at the hearing.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
