Interenergy Sheffield Processing

Company, Bear Paw Energy, L.L.C.;

Notice of Filing

February 3, 2000.

Take notice that on January 28, 2000,

Bear Paw Energy, L.L.C., a Delaware

limited liability company, whose

mailing address is 3170 17th Street,

Suite 2750, Denver, Colorado 80202,

filed in Docket No. CP96–684–001, a

request seeking that the Section 3

authorization and Presidential Permit

held in the name of its predecessor

company, Interenergy Sheffield

Processing Company, be changed to

recognize its company’s reorganization

and change in its corporate name, all as

more fully set forth in the filing which

is on file with the Commission and open

to public inspection.

Bear Paw Energy, L.L.C. states that in

1997 a Section 3 authorization and

Presidential Permit were granted in the

above captioned proceeding to

Interenergy Sheffield Processing

Company (Interenergy Sheffield), a

general partnership between Bear Paw

Energy Inc. and Interenergy

Corporation. These authorizations

permitted Interenergy Sheffield, an

otherwise non-jurisdictional natural gas

gathering and processing system, to

construct and operate natural gas

facilities at the International Boundary

line near Portal, North Dakota, to import

gas from Canada. Bear Paw Energy,

L.L.C. also states that, in 1998, Bear Paw

Energy Inc. became the sole and direct

owner of the gathering and processing

system and the border crossing

facilities. In the present filing, Bear Paw

Energy, L.L.C. informs the Commission

that, as of January 20, 2000, Bear Paw

Energy Inc. was merged into a Delaware

limited liability company, with its

ultimate name change to Bear Paw

Energy, L.L.C. Bear Paw Energy, L.L.C.

states that these transactions do not, in

any way, alter the operation of the

gathering and processing system or the

border crossing facilities.

Bear Paw Energy, L.L.C. requests that

the Commission modify its records in

the above captioned proceeding to

reflect the final name change, such that

the Section 3 authorization and

Presidential Permit previously granted

to Interenergy Sheffield will hereafter be

in the name of Bear Paw Energy, L.L.C.

In the alternative, Bear Paw Energy,

L.L.C. requests that a new Section 3

authorization and Presidential Permit be

granted in its own name.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

make any protest with reference to said

filing should, on or before, February 22,

2000, file with the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, Washington,

DC 20426, a protest or motion to

intervene in accordance with the

requirements of Rule 211 or 214 of the

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 or 385.214).

All protests filed with the Commission

will be considered in determining the

appropriate action to be taken, but will

not serve to make the Protestants parties

to the proceeding. Any person wishing

to become a party to a proceeding or to

participate as a party in any hearing

therein must file a motion to intervene

in accordance with the Commission’s

Rules.

Questar Southern Trails Pipeline

Company; Notice of Meeting

February 3, 2000.

Take notice that a meeting will be

held in the above-docketed proceedings

on Thursday, February 24, 2000, at 10:

a.m., in a room to be designated at the

offices of the Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission, 888 First Street, NE,

Washington, DC 20426. The purpose of

the meeting is to clarify and ascertain

additional information regarding

Questar Line 90 Company’s request of

November 9, 1999, for an opinion from

the General Counsel that certain

prospective salvage activities related to

Line 90 Company’s oil pipeline

purchased from ARCO Pipe Line

Company are nonjurisdictional and will

not require prior certificate

authorization. Line 90 Company is also

concerned that these activities will not

prejudice Questar Southern Trails

Pipeline Company’s pending certificate

application in Docket No. CP99–163–

000 et al. to acquire (from Line 90

Company), convert, and operate the

heretofore oil pipeline for the

transportation of natural gas in

interstate commerce.

Specifically, all of the parties should

be prepared for a discussion on the

following questions, among others,

relating to the requested General

Counsel interpretation:

What are the specific activities to be

undertaken by Line 90 Company with

respect to the oil pipeline and why?

Identify specific equipment/facilities.

Would the specific activities,

including removal of facilities and

equipment, be undertaken regardless of

whether the conversion of the oil

pipeline to natural gas was planned?

What are the ‘‘environmental

remediation obligations’’ of ARCO with

respect to the subject pipeline, and what

is the reason for and nature of Line 90

Company’s involvement in such

measures? What is ARCO’s schedule for

all remaining activities associated with

the oil pipeline?

Any party, as defined in 18 CFR

385.214, and any participant, as defined

in 18 CFR 385.102(b), in the abovecaptioned proceedings are invited to

participate in the meeting. However, no

topics other than those pertaining to the

requested General Counsel opinion will

be considered. For additional

information, please contact Dennis

Vasapoli (202) 208–0461 or Robert

Christin (202) 208–1022, at the

Commission.
