[Docket No. CP99-70-000]


Northwest Pipeline Corporation; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

November 19, 1998.
    Take notice that on November 12, 1998, Northwest Pipeline 
Corporation (Northwest), 295 Chipeta Way, Salt Lake City, Utah 84158, 
filed in Docket No. CP99-70-000, a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 
and 157.216 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act 
(18 CFR 157.205 and 157.212) for authorization to abandon by removal 
its Green Circle Farms and Lambert Farms Meter Stations in Benton and 
Yakima Counties, Washington, respectively, under Northwest's blanket 
certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-433-000, pursuant to Section 7(c) 
of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request 
which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Northwest proposes to abandon the Green Circle Farms and Lambert 
Farms Meter Stations because no deliveries have been made in many years 
to either meter station. By letter dated September 8, 1998, Cascade 
Natural Gas Corporation, the local distribution company downstream of 
the meter stations, confirmed that it does not object to Northwest 
abandoning and removing these two meter stations.
    Northwest states the cost of removing the meter stations is 
estimated to be approximately $6,400. Northwest relates that all 
removed facilities will be scrapped. Northwest states it has sent a 
copy of this prior notice request to the Washington Utilities and 
Transportation Commission.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after 
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, filed with the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., 
Washington D.C. 20426, 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withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest, 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.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
