[Docket No. CP98-646-000]


Williams Gas Pipelines Central, Inc.; Notice of Request under 
Blanket Authorization

July 7, 1998.
    Take notice that on June 30, 1998, Williams Gas Pipelines Central, 
Inc. (Williams Gas), Post Office Box 3288, Tulsa, Oklahoma 74101, filed 
a request with the Commission in Docket No. CP98-646-000, pursuant to 
Sections 157.205, 157.212 and 157.216(b) of the Commission's 
Regulations under the Natural Gas (NGA) for authorization to replace 
the City of Iola, Kansas power plant meter settings and appurtenant 
facilities with multiple-run meter settings, in the same location, in 
Allen County, Kansas authorized in blanket certificate issued in Docket 
No. CP82-

[[Page 37558]]

479-000, all as more fully set forth in the request on file with the 
Commission and open to public inspection.
    Williams Gas proposes to abandon by reclaim a positive meter 
setting (used for peaking) and an orifice meter setting and appurtenant 
facilities serving the Iola power plant and replace them with a 
multiple run meter settings and appurtenant facilities at the same 
location in Section 27, Township 24 South, Range 18 East, Allen County, 
Kansas. The power plant has installed new power generation equipment 
which requires that Williams replace the existing meters with meters 
capable of handling the increased volume.
    Williams states that the cost to replace the two settings is 
estimated to be approximately $152,455 and the cost to reclaim the old 
facilities would be approximately $1,500. Williams further states that 
the peak day volume is not expected to increase; however, the non-
coincidental peak day volume could increase to 5,100 Dth/day due to the 
installation of new power generation equipment.
    Williams reports that the exchange 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.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after the 
Commission has issued this notice, 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 NGA (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to the request. If 
no protest is filed within the allowed time, 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 NGA.
David P. Boergers,
Acting Secretary.
