Questar Southern Trails Pipeline Company; Notice of Meeting

February 3, 2000.
    Take notice that a meeting will be held in the above-docketed 
proceedings on Thursday, February 24, 2000, at 10: a.m., in a room to 
be designated at the offices of the Federal Energy Regulatory 
Commission, 888 First Street, NE, Washington, DC 20426. The purpose of 
the meeting is to clarify and ascertain additional information 
regarding Questar Line 90 Company's request of November 9, 1999, for an 
opinion from the General Counsel that certain prospective salvage 
activities related to Line 90 Company's oil pipeline purchased from 
ARCO Pipe Line Company are nonjurisdictional and will not require prior 
certificate authorization. Line 90 Company is also concerned that these 
activities will not prejudice Questar Southern Trails Pipeline 
Company's pending certificate application in Docket No. CP99-163-000 et 
al. to acquire (from Line 90 Company), convert, and operate the 
heretofore oil pipeline for the transportation of natural gas in 
interstate commerce.
    Specifically, all of the parties should be prepared for a 
discussion on the following questions, among others, relating to the 
requested General Counsel interpretation:
    What are the specific activities to be undertaken by Line 90 
Company with respect to the oil pipeline and why? Identify specific 
equipment/facilities.
    Would the specific activities, including removal of facilities and 
equipment, be undertaken regardless of whether the conversion of the 
oil pipeline to natural gas was planned?
    What are the ``environmental remediation obligations'' of ARCO with 
respect to the subject pipeline, and what is the reason for and nature 
of Line 90 Company's involvement in such measures? What is ARCO's 
schedule for all remaining activities associated with the oil pipeline?
    Any party, as defined in 18 CFR 385.214, and any participant, as 
defined in 18 CFR 385.102(b), in the above-captioned proceedings are 
invited to participate in the meeting. However, no topics other than 
those pertaining to the requested General Counsel opinion will be 
considered. For additional information, please contact Dennis Vasapoli 
(202) 208-0461 or Robert Christin (202) 208-1022, at the Commission.

David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
