ANR Pipeline Company; Notice of Proposed Changes in FERC Gas 
Tariff

July 1, 2003.
    Take notice that on June 25, 2003, ANR Pipeline Company (ANR) 
tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas Tariff, Second Revised 
Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets proposed to become effective 
July 25, 2003:

Second Revised Sheet No. 182
Third Revised Sheet No. 186

    ANR states that it seeks approval of (1) an assignment of its Gas 
Purchase Agreement (GPA) with Dakota Gasification Company, as well as 
related transportation capacity, to BP Canada Energy Marketing Corp. 
(BP) and (2) the above-referenced tariff sheets to implement recovery 
of the costs relating to such assignment. Subject to Commission 
approval, ANR states that it has agreed to assign to BP its obligations 
under the GPA, and permanently release to BP two transportation 
contracts with Northern Natural Gas Company and Northern Border 
Pipeline Company, respectively. ANR explains that assuming that the 
Assignment Agreement is effectuated on August 1, 2003, the parties have 
agreed to a buyout cost of approximately $9.5 million. To recover the 
buyout costs, ANR proposes to revise its existing tariff to include a 
mechanism that provides for a twelve month recovery period.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, in
