Take notice that on July 11, 1996, CNG Transmission Corporation (CNG), 445 West Main Street, Clarksburg, West Virginia 26301, filed in Docket No. CP96-635-000 a request pursuant to Secs. 157.205 and 157.211 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, [[Page 37731]] 157.211) for authorization to upgrade the existing Johnsonburg Measuring and Regulation Station (Johnsonburg M&R Station) in Elk County, Pennsylvania under CNG's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-537-000 pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request that is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection. CNG states that the upgraded Johnsonburg M&R Station will serve as an upgraded delivery point to Hanley and Bird, Inc. (Hanley), a local distribution company, for delivery of up to 14,000 Dth of natural gas per day. CNG states that Hanley will utilize these volumes for re- delivery to Willamette Industries, Inc's (Willamette) existing paper plant near the town of Johnsonburg, Pennsylvania. CNG states that Hanley and Willamette will be making arrangements to transport the 14,000 Dth per day on an interruptible or capacity release basis on CNG's interstate pipeline system. CNG further states that the upgrade is necessary to deliver Hanley's and Williamette's gas because of the deterioration of the facilities at the existing Johnsonburg M&R Station. CNG states that the upgrade would consist of a new heater, control valves, SCADA equipment, M&R piping and valves and buildings at the point of interconnection with CNG's Line 20. CNG states that the maximum daily design capacity of the upgraded Johnsonburg M&R Station will be 14,000 Dth per day. CNG also states that Hanley and Williamette have agreed to reimburse CNG for the majority of the costs of the upgrade, which are estimated to be $250,000, and that CNG will continue to be the owner of the Johnsonburg M&R Station. 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 Sec. 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.
