[Docket No. CP98-229-001]


Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Motion To Vacate

February 20, 2001.
    On February 2, 2001, Northern Natural Gas Company (Northern), P.O. 
Box 3330, Omaha, Nebraska 68103-0330, filed in Docket No. CP98-229-001 
a motion to vacate that portion of an order issued December 22, 1998, 
in Docket No. CP98-229-000 which permitted Northern to abandon by sale 
to K N Gas Gathering, Inc., (KNGG) its Liberal facilities in Texas 
County, Oklahoma, and Stevens and Seward County, Kansas, all as more 
fully set forth in the motion which is on file with the Commission and 
open to public inspection. The filing may be viewed at http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).
    Northern states that the order, among other things, permitted it to 
abandon by sale to KNGG its Liberal facilities. It is stated that the 
related December 30, 1997 Asset Purchase Agreement, as amended, was 
assigned to ONEOK, Inc. (ONEOK), but that on June 26, 2000, ONEOK 
exercised its option to terminate that agreement. Therefore, Northern 
requests that the Commission vacate that portion of the December 22, 
1998, order.
    Questions regarding the details of this motion should be directed 
to Michele Winckowski, at (402)-398-7200.

the proceedings for this project should, on or before March 2, 2001,

requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 
CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 
157.10). A person obtaining party status will be placed on the service
