    Take notice that on July 8, 1996, Northern Natural Gas Company 
(Northern), 111 South 103rd Street, Omaha, Nebraska 68124-1000, filed 
in Docket No. CP96-628-000, a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 
157.212 (18 CFR Sections 157.205 and 157.212) of the Commission's 
Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to 
upgrade the Black River Falls #4 town border station (TBS), an existing 
delivery point located in Jackson County, Wisconsin, to accommodate 
increased natural gas deliveries to Wisconsin Gas Company (Wisconsin 
Gas), under Northern's authorization in Docket No. CP82-401-000 
pursuant to Section 7 of the NGA, all as more fully set forth in the 
request which is on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection.
    Northern states that it requests authority to upgrade an existing 
delivery point in Michigan to accommodate increased natural gas 
deliveries to Wisconsin Gas under Northern's currently effective 
throughput service agreements. Northern asserts that Wisconsin Gas has 
requested increased service at the Black River Falls #4 TBS to 
accommodate growth in the area.
    It is asserted that the proposed increase in volumes to be 
delivered to Wisconsin at the Black River Falls #4 TBS are 723 MMBtu on 
a peak day and 61,514 MMBtu on an annual basis. Northern has stated 
that the estimated cost of upgrading the delivery point is $79,600 and 
that the facilities would be financed in accordance with the General 
Terms and Conditions of Northern's FERC Gas Tariff, Fifth Revised 
Volume No. 1.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after 
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 Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to 
the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor, 
the proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the 
day after the time allowed for filing a 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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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 Natural Gas Act.
