WNG seeks authorization to use the facilities, commonly known as the Mutual interconnect, for transportation and delivery of gas under Part 284 of the Commission's Regulations. WNG states the cost to acquire and install the facilities was $965,138, which will be reimbursed through a new firm transportation agreement with a third party. WNG relates that it began delivering gas to ONG through the Section 311 facilities on July 1, 1997. WNG says the initial delivery was 20,000 Dth. ONG estimates that peak day deliveries will be approximately 50,000 Dth with an annual volume of 9,125,000 Dth. WNG states that this change is not prohibited by an existing tariff and that it has sufficient capacity to accomplish the deliveries specified without detriment or disadvantage to its other customers.
