[Docket No. CP97-734-000]
Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket
Authorization
September 24, 1997.
Take notice that on September 8, 1997, Northern Natural Gas Company
(Northern), 1111 South 103rd Street, Omaha, Nebraska, 68124-1000, filed
in Docket No. CP97-734-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205, and
157.212 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18
CFR 157.205, and 157.212) for approval to install and operate a new
delivery point located in Clark County, South Dakota, to accommodate
interruptible natural gas deliveries to Northwest Public Service
Company (NWPS), under Northern's blanket certificate authority issued
in Docket No. CP82-401-000, pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas
Act (NGA), all as more fully set forth in the request which is on file
with the Commission and open to public inspection.
Northern proposes to install and operate the proposed new delivery
point to accommodate natural gas deliveries to NWPS under currently
effective throughput service agreements. Northern asserts that NWPS has
requested the proposed facility for service to four grain dryers and
three Hutterite Colonies who have not previously been served by natural
gas. Northern further asserts that the estimated volumes of natural gas
to be delivered to NWPS at the proposed point are 1,020 MMBtu on a peak
day and 52,000 MMBtu on an annual basis. Northern states that the
estimated cost to construct the new delivery point is $67,000, which
NWPS will reimburse Northern.
Any person or the Commission's Staff may, within 45 days of the
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule
214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR
385.214), a motion to intervene 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 activities 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and not withdrawn 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest,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.
