BILLING CODE 6717–01–P

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission

[Docket No. CP96–477–000]

K N Interstate Gas Transmission

Company; Notice of Availability of the

Environmental Assessment for the

Proposed Pony Express Pipeline

Project

April 4, 1997.

The staff of the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission (FERC or

Commission) has prepared this

environmental assessment (EA) on the

natural gas pipeline facilities proposed

by K N Interstate Gas Transmission

Company (KNI) in the above-referenced

docket.

The EA was prepared to satisfy the

requirements of the National

Environmental Policy Act. The staff

concludes that approval of the proposed

project, with appropriate mitigating

measures, would not constitute a major

Federal action significantly affecting the

quality of the human environment.

The primary components of the

project include:

• Conversion of approximately 804

miles of existing crude oil pipeline from

the Lost Cabin, Wyoming area east to

Freeman, Missouri (the Pony Express

Mainline), including removal and/or

replacement of oil pipeline valves, pig

launcher/receiver sets, and

interconnections along the length of the

pipeline;

• Construction of four short segments

of new pipeline (totaling 10.2 miles) to

connect existing KNI facilities to the

Pony Express Mainline and to route the

mainline around the Casper, Wyoming

area;

• Installation of additional and new

compression facilities totaling 50,500

horsepower at five locations along the

Pony Express Mainline in Wyoming,

Colorado, and Kansas;

• Construction of a new 62.6-milelong lateral extending between the Pony

Express Mainline in southwest Nebraska

and northern Colorado; and

• Upgrading 26 segments of an

existing KNI pipeline at road crossings

in southwest Nebraska to allow the

pipeline to operate at a higher pressure.

The existing pipeline, which extends

914 miles between Riverton, Wyoming

and Freeman, Missouri, was previously

owned and operated by Amoco Pipeline

Company (Amoco) and used to transport

crude oil. K N Energy Incorporated

(KNI’s parent company) is acquiring the

existing Amoco pipeline, and is

presently displacing the oil, cleaning

the pipeline’s interior, and

hydrostatically testing the pipeline by

segments. Following FERC certification,

approximately 804 miles of the Amoco

pipeline would be transferred to KNI.

Activities to convert the pipeline to

natural gas service would begin

following receipt of the necessary

authorizations from the various Federal,

state, and local authorities.

Also included in this EA is a review

of facilities which KNI plans to

construct in the Kansas City area under

section 311 of the Natural Gas Policy

Act. These facilities include about 36.4

miles of 12-, 16-, and 20-inch-diameter

pipeline and appurtenant facilities in

Miami and Johnson Counties, Kansas,

and Cass and Jackson Counties,

Missouri. The project is designed to

deliver up to 230,700 MMBtu of natural

gas per day to Missouri Gas Energy and

Western Resources Inc., two local

distribution companies which serve

Kansas City, Missouri, and Kansas City,

Kansas, respectively.

The EA has been placed in the public

files of the FERC. A limited number of

copies of the EA are available for

distribution and public inspection at:

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,

Public Reference and Files Maintenance

Branch, 888 First Street, NE.,

Washington, DC 20426, (202) 208–1371.

Copies of the EA have been mailed to

Federal, state, and local agencies; public

interest groups; interested individuals;

local libraries and newspapers; and

parties to this proceeding.

Any person wishing to comment on

the EA may do so. To ensure

consideration prior to a Commission

decision on this proposal, it is

important that we receive your

comments before the date listed below.

Please carefully follow the instructions

below to ensure that your comments are

received in time and properly recorded:

• Reference Docket No. CP96–477–

000.

• Send two copies of your comments

to: Lois Cashell, Secretary, Federal

Energy Regulatory Commission, 888

First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426.

• Please mail your comments so that

they will be received in Washington, DC

on or before May 5, 1997.

Comments will be considered by the

Commission but will not serve to make

the commentor a party to the

proceeding. Any person seeking to

become a party to the proceeding must

file a motion to intervene pursuant to

Rule 214 of the Commission’s Rules of

Practice and Procedures (18 CFR

385.214).

The date for filing timely motions to

intervene in this proceeding has passed.

Therefore, parties now seeking to file

late interventions must show good

cause, as required by section

385.214(b)(3), why this time limitation

should be waived. Environmental issues

have been viewed as good cause for late

intervention. You do not need

intervenor status to have your

comments considered.

Lois D. Cashell,

Secretary.
