Nicor Gas; Notice of Petition for Rate Approval

November 15, 2004.
    Take notice that on October 5, 2004, Nicor Gas tendered for filing 
an application pursuant to sections 284.224 and 284.123 to: (a) 
Establish a new facility-based priority interruptible service; and (b) 
revise Nicor Gas' Operating Statement to make it more user-friendly, 
clarify several aspects of the rules governing interstate services 
provided by Nicor Gas, and expand the recourse rate options available 
to interstate shippers.
    Pursuant to section 284.123(b)(2)(ii), if the Commission does not 
act within 150 days of the date of this filing, the rates will be 
deemed to be fair and equitable and not in excess of an amount which 
interstate pipelines would be permitted to charge for similar 
transportation service. The Commission may, prior to the expiration of 
the 150 day period, extend the time for action or institute a 
proceeding to afford parties an opportunity for written comments and 
for the oral presentation of views, data, and arguments.
    Any person desiring to participate in this rate filing must file in 
accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice 
and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and 385.214). Protests will be considered 
by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to be taken, 
but will not serve to make protestants parties to the proceeding. Any 
person wishing to become a party must file a notice of intervention or 
motion to intervene, on or before the date as indicated below. Anyone 
filing an intervention or protest must serve a copy of that document on 
the Applicant. Anyone filing an intervention or protest on or before 
the intervention or protest date need not serve motions to intervene or 
protests on persons other than the Applicant.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and 
interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should submit an 
original and 14 copies of the protest or intervention to the Federal 
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 
20426.
    This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov, using the
