[Docket No. CP07-2-000]


Aquila, Inc.; Notice of Application

October 13, 2006.
    Take notice that on October 6, 2006, Aquila, Inc. (Aquila), 1815 
Capitol Avenue, Omaha, NE 68102, filed in Docket No. CP07-2-000, an 
abbreviated application pursuant to section 7(f) of the Natural Gas Act 
requesting the determination of a service area within which Aquila may, 
without further commission authorization, provide natural gas 
distribution service. Aquila also requests a waiver of the Commission's 
accounting and reporting requirements and other regulatory requirements 
ordinarily applicable to natural gas companies under the NGA, all as 
more fully set forth in the application which is on file with the 
Commission and open to public inspection. This filing may also be 
viewed on the Commission's Web site at http://www.ferc.gov using the 
``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket number, excluding the last three 
digits, in the docket number field to access the document. For 
assistance, call (202) 502-8659 or TTY, (202) 208-3676.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to 
Arleen Dizona, Aquila Networks, 1815 Capitol Avenue, Omaha, NE 68102; 
(402) 221-2630 (telephone) or [email protected], or Patrick 
Joyce, Blackwell Sanders Peper Martin LLP, 1620 Dodge Street, Suite 
2100, Omaha, NE 68102; (402) 964-5012 (telephone) or 
[email protected].
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene in accordance with the 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 list maintained by 
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all 
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must 
submit 14 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a 
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only 
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders 
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. 
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will 
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's 
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project 
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly 
involved in the protest.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests and interventions via the Internet in lieu of paper. See 18 
CFR 385.2001(a)(1)(iii) and the instructions on the Commission's Web 
(http://www.ferc.gov) site under the ``e-Filing'' link.
    Comment Date: November 3, 2006.

Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
