stations are located in Carrol County, Iowa; Ottawa County, Kansas; 
Freeborn, Le Sueur, Pine, Scott, and Sherburn Counties, Minnesota; and 
Gage, Jefferson, and Johnson Counties, Nebraska. Northern further 
states that it would spend $2,000 to remove these 13 farm taps from its 
customers' property.
    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 (13 CFR 385.214) a motion to intervene or 
notice of intervention and pursuant to Sec. 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn within 30 days after 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.
