Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission

[Docket No. CP95–261–000, et al.]

Questar Pipeline Company, et al.;

Natural Gas Certificate Filings

March 29, 1995.

Take notice that the following filings

have been made with the Commission:

1. Questar Pipeline Company

[Docket No. CP95–261–000]

Take notice that on March 13, 1995,

Questar Pipeline Company (Questar), 79

South State Street, Salt Lake City, Utah

84111, filed in Docket No. CP95–261–

000 an application pursuant to Section

7(b) of the Natural Gas Act for

permission and approval to abandon by

removal a 3-inch meter run and

appurtenant facilities located in

Sweetwater County, Wyoming, all as

more fully set forth in the application

on file with the Commission and open

to public inspection.

Questar states that the meter run was

installed by Questar’s predecessor,

Mountain Fuel Resources, Inc.

(Mountain Fuel), at the Steamboat

Mountain Meter & Regulating Station to

receive natural gas from NGC Energy

Resources, L.P. (NGC), for transportation

on Mountain Fuel’s system, which was

subsequently acquired by Questar. It is

stated that the facilities were installed

under the automatic authorization

provisions of Mountain Fuel’s blanket

certificate in Docket No. CP82–491–000.

Questar states that the meter run is

obsolete because it can no longer

measure the increasing volumes flowing

from the Steamboat Mountain

producing area. It is asserted that there

is an existing 6-inch meter run adjacent

to the 3-inch meter run which can

accurately measure the increasing

volumes. It is further asserted that the

proposed abandonment would have no

impact on Questar’s transportation for

NGC and no impact on the average daily

design capacity or operation of

Questar’s system.

Comment date: April 19, 1995, in

accordance with Standard Paragraph F

at the end of this notice.

2. Northwest Pipeline Corporation

[Docket No. CP95–274–000]

Take notice that on March 20, 1995,

Northwest Pipeline Corporation

(Northwest), 295 Chipeta Way, Salt Lake

City, Utah 84158, filed in Docket No.

CP95–274–000 a request pursuant to

Sections 157.205, 157.211, and 157.216

of the Commission’s Regulations under

the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205,

157.211, 157.212) for authorization to

upgrade its existing Olympia Meter

Station and to install looping facilities

under Northwest’s blanket certificate

issued in Docket No. CP82–433–000

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.

Northwest proposes to partially

abandon and upgrade its Olympia Meter

Station and to construct and operate

approximately 3.73 miles of 12-inch

pipeline loop, valves and a loop tie-in

on its existing Olympia lateral at the

existing Rainier Meter Station, all in

Thurston County, Washington.

Northwest states that the upgraded

station would consist of two 6-inch

turbine meters, two 4-inch regulators,

valves and appurtenances. Northwest

explains that the loop would parallel

the existing Olympia Lateral, beginning

at the Ignacio-to-Sumas gas transmission

mainline and terminating about 2,700

feet southeast of the Fort Lewis Military

Reservation boundary. Northwest states

that these proposed facilities would

increase Northwest’s delivery capacity

to Washington Natural Gas Company

(Washington Natural) at various meter

stations on the Olympia and Shelton

laterals by approximately 13,370 Dth
17350 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 65 / Wednesday, April 5, 1995 / Notices

per day and would allow increased

contractual delivery pressures at the

Olympia Meter Station under existing

transportation agreements with

Washington Natural, a local distribution

company.

Northwest states that the expanded

facilities at the Olympia Meter Station

would provide for a design capacity of

34,541 Dth per day of service (at a

delivery pressure of 400 psig).

Northwest also states that the proposed

lateral loop line would increase the

capacity of the Olympia lateral from

approximately 64,540 to approximately

77,910 Dth per day at 637 psig inlet

pressure from Northwest’s mainline.

Northwest explains that the increased

volumes and delivery pressure would be

utilized to enhance service to

Washington Natural under an existing

firm Rate Schedule TF–1 transportation

agreement dated August 15, 1994, or

under any other duly authorized firm

transportation agreement. Northwest

states that the total costs to remove the

undersized metering facilities and to

construct the proposed upgraded

metering facilities, lateral loop line,

valves and loop tie-in are estimated at

approximately $2,559,300. Northwest

further states that the costs would be

reimbursed by Washington Natural in

the form of a Facility Cost-of-Service

Charge over 9 years.

Comment date: May 15, 1995, in

accordance with Standard Paragraph G

at the end of this notice.

3. Interstate Utilities Company, a

Division of Gasco Distribution Systems

[Docket No. CP95–278–000]

Take notice that on March 22, 1995,

Interstate Utilities Company, a division

of Gasco Distribution Systems, Inc.

(IUC), 4435 East Pike, Zanesville, Ohio

43701, filed in Docket No. CP95–278–

000 an application requesting a service

area determination pursuant to Section

7(f) of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), all as

more fully set forth in the application

on file with the Commission and open

to public inspection.

IUC states that it is a small local

distribution company (LDC) serving 450

customers in Mason County, West

Virginia. It is stated that IUC receives

natural gas service from Columbia Gas

Transmission Corporation in Meigs

County, Ohio, and transports the gas a

distance of 1.5 miles across the Ohio

River. It is further stated that IUC then

distributes the gas to its retail customers

in West Virginia and provides no

service to customers in Ohio. It is

asserted that IUC makes no sales for

resale. It is explained that IUC’s

operations are regulated by the Public

Service Commission of West Virginia.

IUC requests that the service area

determination consist of Mason County,

West Virginia, and Meigs County, Ohio,

and IUC’s rights-of-way interconnecting

the two counties. IUC requests a

declaration that it qualifies as an LDC in

the service area to be determined for

purposes of Section 311 of the Natural

Gas Policy Act (NGPA). IUC also

requests a waiver of the regulatory

requirements, including reporting and

accounting requirements, ordinarily

applicable to a natural gas company

under the NGA and the NGPA.

Comment date: April 19, 1995, in

accordance with Standard Paragraph F

at the end of this notice.
