BILLING CODE 6717–01–M

[Docket No. CP95–282–000]

El Paso Natural Gas Company; Notice

of Request Under Blanket

Authorization

March 31, 1995.

Take notice that on March 24, 1995,

El Paso Natural Gas Company (El Paso),

P.O. Box 1492, El Paso, Texas 79978,

filed in Docket No. CP95–282–000 a

request pursuant to §§ 157.205, 157.212

and 157.216 of the Commission’s

Regulations under the Natural Gas Act

(18 CFR 157.205, 157.212 and 157.216)

for authorization to upgrade a delivery

point and to abandon a delivery point

both located in Pinal County, Arizona

under El Paso’s blanket certificate

issued in Docket No. CP82–435–000

pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas

Act, all as more fully set forth in the

request that is on file with the

Commission and open to public

inspection.

El Paso proposes to upgrade the J. A.

Roberts (S–25) Meter Station (Roberts

Station). Southwest informed El Paso

that the upgrade of the Roberts Station

was necessary since the gas demand on

its distribution system has increased

and additional continued growth is

anticipated. The Roberts Station is

located near milepost 3.3 (Section 10,

Township 6 South, Range 7 East) on El

Paso’s 6′′ O.D. Superior Line and

currently delivers natural gas to

Southwest for residential and

commercial usages. As part of the

upgrading, Southwest will construct

approximately 2,700 feet of 41⁄2′′ O.D.

pipe and regulation equipment on the

existing, previously disturbed right-ofway for connecting a segment of its

distribution system to the Roberts

Station. El Paso will replace the existing

2′′ O.D. senior orifice meter run with a

2′′ O.D. turbine meter run with

appurtenances, thereby making the

Roberts Station capable of a wider range

of measurement capability.

As a result of upgrading the Roberts

Station, El Paso proposes to abandon by

removal the Evaristo Cabanillas (S–23)

Tap (Cabanillas Tap). The Cabanillas

Tap is located near milepost 3.9

(Section 10, Township 6 South, Range 7

East) on El Paso’s 6′′ O.D. Superior Line

and provides service to Southwest for

residential and commercial usages.

Metering and distribution services are

provided by Southwest from the

Cabanillas tap. Southwest has rendered

the Cabanillas Tap as unnecessary since

the Roberts Station upgrading will

provide sufficient gas volumes to serve

the Cabanillas Tap customers. El Paso

will abandon the Cabanillas Tap by

removing one 1′′ O.D. tap and valve

assembly with appurtenances and

regulation equipment. All salvageable

materials will be reused and all

abandonment and removal activities

will be limited to the existing,

previously disturbed right-of-way.

El Paso stated that providing gas

service from only the proposed

upgraded Roberts Station would

simplify operations for both Southwest

and El Paso and would result in a

savings in operation and maintenance

expenses but still maintain throughput

requirements. The total estimated cost

for upgrading plus respective overhead

and contingency fees is $48,500, but

Southwest has agreed to reimburse El

Paso.

With the upgrading of the Roberts

Station, Southwest will be able to

consolidate its receipt of natural gas

from El Paso at a point where deliveries

are needed the most, and in turn, permit

abandonment of the unnecessary

Cabanillas Tap. Southwest will use the

gas to satisfy residential and residential

space heating requirements, and

commercial and commercial space

heating requirements in the Central

Arizona College area and in the City of

Coolidge, Arizona and environs.

El Paso states that the proposed firm

delivery of natural gas to Southwest at

the Roberts Station is within certificated

entitlement and will not have a

negligible effect upon El Paso’s peak day

and annual deliveries and will be done

without detriment or disadvantage to El

Paso’s other customers.

Any person or the Commission’s staff

may, within 45 days after issuance of

the instant notice by the Commission,

file pursuant to Rule 214 of the

Commission’s Procedural Rules (18 CFR

385.214) a motion to intervene or notice

of intervention and pursuant to

§ 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 activity 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

within 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.
