    \1\58 FERC 61,344 (1992).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Williston Basin proposes to add the existing Bowdoin--KNE 
Whitewater Exchange receipt point in Phillips County, Montana, to its 
FERC Rate Schedule X-13 for service to NSP during the months of 
November through March each year. Williston Basin would deliver gas 
received at the Bowdoin--KNE Whitewater Exchange receipt point to NSP 
at the existing Mapleton NSP delivery point in Cass County, North 
Dakota.
    Williston Basin also proposes to reassign portions of the currently 
effective transportation Maximum Daily Receipt Quantity (MDRQ) under 
Rate Schedule X-13 from the Little Knife Plant in Billings, North 
Dakota, and the Lignite Plant in Burke County, North Dakota, to the 
Bowdoin--KNE Whitewater Exchange receipt point during the November-
March winter heating season. Williston Basin would receive 500 
dekatherms at the proposed Bowdoin--KNE Whitewater Exchange receipt 
point during the heating season and zero during the April-October 
summer season. Williston Basin would also receive 2,250 dekatherms 
during the winter heating season and 2,500 dekatherms during the summer 
season at the Little Knife Plant receipt point. During the winter 
heating season, Williston Basin would receive 1,000 dekatherms at the 
Lignite Plant receipt point and 1,250 during the summer season.
    Williston Basin would not construct and operate any new facilities 
to implement this proposal.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said application should on or before October 11, 1994, 
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 
20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in accordance with the 
requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 
CFR 385.211 or 385.214) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 
157.10). All protest filed with the Commission will be considered by it 
in determining the appropriate action to be taken but will not serve to 
make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to 
become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a party in any 
hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in accordance with the 
Commission's Rules.
    Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in 
and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the NGA and the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be held 
without further notice before the Commission or its designee on this 
application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time required 
herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter finds that a 
grant of the certificate is required by the public convenience and 
necessity. If a motion for leave to intervene is timely filed, or if 
the Commission on its own motion believes that a formal hearing is 
required, further notice of such hearing will be duly given.
    Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised, 
it will be unnecessary for Williston Basin to appear or be represented 
at the hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
