DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP99-570-000]


Colorado Interstate Gas Company; Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

June 30, 1999.
    Take notice that on June 28, 1999, Colorado Interstate Gas Company 
(CIG), P.O. Box 1087, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80944, filed a prior 
notice request with the Commission in Docket No. CP99-570-000 pursuant 
to Section 157.205 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural 
Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to increase the Maximum Allowable 
Operating Pressure (MAOP) at an existing delivery lateral in El Paso 
County, Colorado, under CIG's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. 
CP83-21-000 pursuant to Section 7 of the NGA, all as more fully set 
forth in the request which is open to the public for inspection. The 
application may be viewed on the web at www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm 
(call 202-208-2222) for assistance).
    CIG proposes to increase the MAOP at an existing delivery lateral 
used to serve the city of Colorado Springs, Colorado, from 717 psig to 
820 psig. CIG states that is would also replace its North Colorado 
Springs lateral, a 10-inch diameter lateral approximately 2,000 feet in 
length, under Part 157.208 of the Commission's Regulations. CIG further 
states that because the lateral's age (constructed in the 1930s) and 
its proximity to major residential growth (Northeast Colorado Springs), 
plus serving as a major delivery point to the city of Colorado Springs, 
CIG intends to replace the lateral under the automatic provisions of 
its blanket certificate this summer. CIG states that the increase in 
the meter's MAOP would match the mainline MAOP delivering natural gas 
to the North Colorado Springs lateral.
    Any questions regarding the application should be directed to James 
R. West, Manager, Certificates, at (719) 520-4679, Colorado Interstate 
Gas Company, P.O. Box 1087, Colorado Springs, Colorado 80944.
    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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn 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.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
