In accordance with the Commission's final rule on the
interpretation of ``waste'' natural gas (Order No. 471, Docket No.
RM87-18-000, 39 FERC 61,169 (1987)), the applications for
certification are being re-noticed to identify more accurately the
proposed facility's primary energy source in the form of ``waste''
natural gas, to notify potential buyers that may have been overlooked
by the Applicant of the opportunity to purchase the gas, and to ensure
that potential buyers that were notified were not willing to purchase
the gas under reasonable terms and conditions.
The facility, which is located in Allegheny, New York, consists of
three internal combustion engine generators with a maximum electric
power production capacity of 790 kW. According to the Applicant, the
primary energy source of the facility is waste gas. Thermal energy
recovered from the facility is used to heat a greenhouse. Installation
of the facility commenced in February of 1984.
Supplemental ``Waste'' Natural Gas Information
According to the applicant, the primary energy source of the
facility will be ``waste'' natural gas produced from several oil wells
located in the vicinity of the facility. Applicant provided quality
characteristics of two samples of the ``waste'' natural gas. The first
sample has a heat content of 1335.4 BTU/SCF and is chiefly composed of
methane--70.5%, ethane--20.3%, propane--5.6%, iso-butane--.64%, n-
butane--1.6%, and smaller amounts of other gases. The second sample has
a heat content of 1473.6 BTU/SCF and is chiefly composed of methane--
61.1%, ethane--23.7%, propane--8.3%, iso-butane--1.1%, n-butane--2.7%,
and smaller amounts of other gases. The wells are currently producing
between 0-190 MCF/day of natural gas. Applicant states that the
``waste'' gas was offered for sale to Columbia Gas Company and National
Gas Company and both refused to buy. Any person interested in
purchasing this gas is encouraged to file a response with the
Commission expressing such desire.
Comment date: September 23, 1994, in accordance with Standard
Paragraph E at the end of this notice.
