[Docket No. CP07-421-000]
Southern Star Central Gas Pipeline, Inc.; Notice of Request Under
Blanket Authorization
July 27, 2007.
Take notice that on July 17, 2007, Southern Star Central Gas
Pipeline, Inc (Southern Star), 4700 Highway 56, Owensboro, Kentucky
42301, filed in Docket No. CP07-421-000 a prior notice request pursuant
to sections 157.205 and 157.211 of the Commission's regulations under
the Natural Gas Act (NGA) to construct and operate a new 12-inch
delivery meter station and interconnecting facilities to serve as a
bypass of a local distribution company. The proposed facilities would
serve Aquila, Inc. (Aquila) d/b/a Aquilia Networks at Aquila's electric
generating plant Buchanan County, Missouri, all as more fully set forth
in the application, which is on file with the Commission and open to
public inspection. The filing may also be viewed on the Web at http://www.ferc.gov
using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket number
excluding the last three digits in the docket number field to access
the document. For assistance, contact FERC at
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or call toll-free, (886) 208-3676 or TYY,
(202) 502-8659.
Specifically, Southern Star proposes to install a side valve, an 8-
inch lateral pipeline approximately 59 feet long, a flow computer and
communications equipment necessary for the new interconnection with
Aquila. Aquila will construct associated metering facilities within its
electric generation plant site. The new meter station will be known as
the Aquila-St. Joe/Lake Road Delivery Measurement setting
16911. The cost of the facilities is estimated to be $296,000.
Aquila currently receives its natural gas service from Missouri Gas
Energy (MGE), a local distribution company. Aquila wishes to receive
its primary gas service from Southern Star and would maintain its
connection with MGE in order to serve as backup gas delivery service.
Aquila has requested Southern Star to provide interruptible natural gas
delivery service to its electric generating plant of up to 17,500 Mcf
per day through the delivery point described above. Southern Star
states that it has notified MGE of the proposed delivery point
directly.
Any questions concerning this application may be directed to David
N. Roberts, Manager of Regulatory Affairs, Southern Star Central Gas
Pipeline, Inc., 4700 Highway 56, Owensboro, Kentucky 42301, or
telephone (270) 852-4654.
Any person or the Commission's Staff may, within 60 days after the
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 section 157.205 of
the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) (18 CFR
157.205) a protest to the request. If no protest is filed within the
time allowed therefore, the proposed activity shall be deemed to be
[[Page 43266]]
authorized effective the day after the time allowed for 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 NGA.
The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments,
protests, and interventions via the Internet in lieu of paper. See 18
CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web
site (http://www.ferc.gov) under the ``e-Filing'' link.
