Great Lakes states that its St. Clair metering facilities have
reached the end of their serviceable life. Great Lakes indicates that
in lieu of replacement, Great Lakes requests authorization to utilize
third party measurement data available from TransCanada PipeLines Ltd.,
downstream of the St. Clair Delivery Point. Great Lakes proposes to
abandon the metering function at its St. Clair Delivery Point by
removing the orifice plates and the differential pressure and
temperature transmitters from the existing meter runs. Great Lakes
maintains that the proposed abandonment would not affect service to any
shipper at the St. Clair Point.
Great Lakes contends that all customers receiving deliveries at the
St. Clair Delivery Point have provided their written consent to the
abandonment except one. Great Lakes avers that the customer not
providing written consent has not indicated that it objects to the
abandonment. Great Lakes, therefore, seeks a waiver to permit the
abandonment notwithstanding the withholding of written consent by the
one customer.
Any person or the Commission's Staff may, within 45 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
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protest is filed and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time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.
Comments, protests and interventions may be filed electronically
via the Internet in lieu of paper. See, 18 CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and
the instructions on the Commission's Web site under the ``e-filing''
link. The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings.
Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
