DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP98-2-000]


ANR Pipeline Company; Notice of Application

October 9, 1997.
    Take notice that on October 1, 1997, ANR Pipeline Company (ANR), 
500 Renaissance Center, Detroit, Michigan 48243, filed an application 
in Docket No. CP98-2-000 pursuant to section 7(c) of the Natural Gas 
Act, for authorization to utilize temporary work spaces and any other 
authorization deemed necessary associated with a pipeline replacement 
project in Kent County, Michigan, all as more fully set forth in the 
application on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    ANR proposes to replace a 0.96 mile line segment of its mainline 
system because of increased population density in order to satisfy U.S. 
Department of Transportation safety regulations. ANR states that in 
order to make the replacement, it will have to utilize temporary work 
spaces which may not have been included in the scope of the original 
authorization to construct the facilities. ANR states that the 
construction will be done within the existing right-of-way under the 
authority of Section 2.55 of the Commission's Regulations, which 
authorizes replacement within the existing right-of-way.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
reference to said application should on or before October 30, 1997, 
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, 
NE., Washington, DC 20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in 
accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice 
and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 and 385.211) and the Regulations under 
the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). All protests 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 jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act 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 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 ANR to appear or be represented at the 
hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
