Revisions to Oil Pipeline Regulations

Pursuant to the Energy Policy Act of

1992

Issued May 19, 1995.

AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission.

ACTION: Notice of Annual Change in the

Producer Price Index for Finished

Goods, Minus One Percent.

SUMMARY: The Commission is issuing

the index that oil pipelines must apply

to their January 1–June 30, 1995 rate

ceiling levels to compute their rate

ceiling levels for the period July 1, 1995,

through June 30, 1996, in accordance

with 18 CFR 342.3(d). This index,

which is the percent change (expressed

as a decimal) in the annual average

Producer Price Index for Finished

Goods from 1993 to 1994, minus one

percent, is a negative .003585. Oil

pipelines must multiply their January

1–June 30, 1995 rate ceiling levels by

.996415 to compute their rate ceiling

levels for the period July 1, 1995

through June 30, 1996.

Notice of Annual Change in the

Producer Price Index for Finished

Goods, Minus One Percent

Issued May 19, 1995.

In Order No. 561, the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission issued a Final

Rule adopting regulations to implement

the requirements of the Energy Policy

Act of 1992.1 The Final Rule provides a

methodology for oil pipelines to change

their rates through use of an index

system that establishes ceiling levels for

such rates. The index system as set forth

in the Commission’s regulations at 18

CFR 342.3 is based on the annual

change in the Producer Price Index for

Finished Goods (PPI–FG), minus one

percent. The regulations provide that

each year the Commission will publish

an index reflecting the final change in

the PPI–FG, minus one percent, after the

final PPI–FG is made available by the

Bureau of Labor Statistics in May of

each calendar year.

The annual average PPI–FG index

figure for 1993 was 124.7 and the

annual average PPI–FG index figure for

1994 was 125.5.2 The percent change

expressed as a decimal) in the annual

average PPI–FG from 1993 to 1994,

minus one percent therefore is a

negative .003585.3 Thus, oil pipelines

must multiply their January 1–June 30,

1995 rate ceiling levels by .996415 to

compute their rate ceiling levels for the

period July 1, 1995, through June 30,

1996, in accordance with 18 CFR

342.3(d). If a resulting rate ceiling level

is below a filed rate, that rate must be

reduced in accordance with 18 CFR

342.3(e).

Commission

[Docket No. CP95–501–000]

K N Interstate Gas Transmission Co.;

Application

May 19, 1995.

Take notice that on May 16, 1995, K

N Interstate Gas Transmission Co. (KNI),

P.O. Box 281304, Lakewood, Colorado

80228, filed in Docket No. CP95–501–

000 an application pursuant to Section

7(b) of the Natural Gas Act for

authorization to abandon by sale to

Mountain Petroleum Corporation (MPC)

its Phuma Compressor Station facilities

located in Phillips County, Colorado, all

as more fully set forth in the application

which is on file with the Commission

and open to public inspection.

KNI proposes to abandon by sale to

MPC one Ajax DPC42 compressor, one

glycol dehydrator and miscellaneous

station pipeline and valves. KNI states

that its predecessor constructed the

Phuma Compressor Station in 1977 to

compress gas that it purchased from

MPC and gathered through its adjacent

gathering system for use as system

supply. KNI states that, due to the small

amount of gas (100 Mcf per day)

received from MPC, the costs of

operating the gathering system by K N

Gas Gathering, Inc. (KNGG) and the

compressor station facilities by KNI

exceeded the revenues received to

gather and compress the gas. KNI also

states that, in order to relieve KNGG and

KNI of the high cost of operating the

facilities and still provide MPC with the

opportunity to produce its gas, KNI,

KNGG and MPC have entered into a

facilities purchase and sale agreement

whereby MPC would purchase the

facilities. It is indicated that, because of

its non-jurisdictional status, the

gathering system has already been

transferred to MPC by KNGG. It is also

indicated that because MPC is the only

producer with gas supplies connected to

the Phuma facilities, no other party

would be affected by the proposed

abandonment.

KNI states that MPC would purchase

the compressor station, dehydrator and

appurtenant facilities at a price of

$12,500.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

make any protest with reference to said

application should on or before June 9,

1995, file with the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, Washington,

D.C. 20426, a motion to intervene or a

protest in accordance with the

requirements of the Commission’s Rules

of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR

385.214 or 385.211) and the 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

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.

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 and the Commission’s Rules of

Practice and Procedure, a hearing will

be held without further notice before the

Commission or its designee on this

application if no motion to intervene is

filed within the time required herein, if

the Commission on its own review of

the matter finds that permission and

approval for the proposed abandonment

are required by the public convenience

and necessity. If a motion for leave to

intervene is timely filed, or if the

Commission on its own motion believes

that a formal 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 KNI to appear or be

represented at the hearing.

Secretary.
