Williston Basin Interstate Pipeline

Company; Notice of Request Under

Blanket Authorization

June 26, 1998.

Take notice that on June 19, 1998,

Williston Basin Interstate Pipeline

Company (Williston Basin), Suite 300,

200 North Third Street, Bismarck, North

Dakota 58501, filed a prior notice

request with the Commission in Docket

No. CP98–624–000 pursuant to Section

157.205 of the Commission’s

Regulations under the Natural Gas Act

(NGA) for authorization to construct and

operate two master meter stations and

appurtenant facilities in Yellowstone

County, Montana, under Williston

Basin’s blanket certificate issued in

Docket No. CP82–487–000, et al.,

pursuant to Section 7 of the NGA, all as

more fully set forth in the request which

is open to the public for inspection.

Williston Basin proposes to construct

and operate two new master meter

stations and appurtenant facilities to

provide natural gas service to MontanaDakota Utilities Co. (Montana-Dakota).

Williston Basin states that it would

install two master meter stations at its

current 48th Street West farm tap site.

Williston Basin also states that one

meter station would be known as the

Danford master meter station, which

would consist of a 2-inch tap on the Elk

Basin-Billings mainline and

approximately 400 feet of 3-inch

diameter lateral pipeline from the

proposed Danford master meter station

to the new tap. Williston Basin further

states that it would construct and

operate a rotary meter, regulators, and

miscellaneous piping, gauges, and

valves at the 48th Street West farm tap

site. Williston Basin estimates that it

would construct the proposed master

meter stations facilities at a cost of

$47,700 in order to deliver

approximately 1,310 Mcf of natural gas

per day via the proposed Danford

master meter station and 595 Mcf of

natural gas per day via the 48th Street

West farm tap site master meter station

to Montana-Dakota.

Williston Basin states that it provides

natural gas transportation service to

Montana-Dakota pursuant to Rate

Schedules FT–1 and/or IT–1 of

Williston Basin’s FERC Gas Tariff.

Williston Basin further states that the

addition of the proposed master meter

stations facilities is not prohibited by its

FERC Gas Tariff and that addition of the

facilities would not have any adverse

impact on a daily or annual basis upon

Williston Basin’s existing customers.

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

and not withdrawn within 30 days after

the time allowed for filing a protest, the
