[Docket No. CP94-656-000]

 

General Services Administration; Notice of Application for the 
Construction, Operation, Maintenance, and Connection of Facilities for 
Importation of Natural Gas at the United States/ Canada International 
Boundary

July 18, 1994.
    Take notice that on July 12, 1994, the General Services 
Administration (GSA), Denver Federal Center, Building 41, Room 200, 
P.O. Box 25006, Denver, Colorado, 80225-006, filed an application 
pursuant to section 3 of the Natural Gas Act, Executive Order No. 
10485, as amended by Executive Order No. 12038; and Delegation Order 
No. 0204-112 of the Secretary of Energy. GSA seeks a Presidential 
Permit for a point of entry for the importation of natural gas and 
section 3 authority to construct, operate, maintain and connect natural 
gas import facilities. The proposed facilities will extend from the 
Canadian border to the Piegan Immigration and Customs Station near 
Babb, Montana. GSA's proposal is more fully set forth in the 
application which is on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection.
    GSA says the import facilities will consist of 2,155 feet of 1 and 
one-half inch pipe. The proposed pipe will deliver up to 146 Mcf per 
day to the Piegan Border Station and several adjacent Staff residences. 
The estimated cost of the facilities is $12,500. The line will connect 
to the facilities of the Chief Mountain Natural Gas Cooperative, who 
will also build a tap and meter in Canada. GSA says that natural gas 
service is needed to replace propane which currently fuels heating 
equipment at the Piegan Border Station. GSA says the current propane 
heating system is sub-standard and violates local mechanical codes. The 
GSA requests that the Commission grant this application on an expedited 
basis.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest this application 
should file a motion to intervene or protest on or before August 1, 
1994, in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of 
Practice and Procedure. All motions to intervene or protests should be 
submitted to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 825 North 
Capitol Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426. All protests filed will 
be considered, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the 
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a motion to 
intervene in accordance with Rule 214.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
