Colorado Interstate Gas Company, L.L.C.; Notice of Request Under
Blanket Authorization
Take notice that on January 24, 2019, Colorado Interstate Gas
Company, L.L.C. (CIG), Post Office (P.O.) Box 1087, Colorado Springs,
Colorado 80944, filed in Docket No. CP19-56-000 a prior notice request
pursuant to sections 157.205, 157.208, and 157.210 of the Commission's
regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) to construct and operate
its High Plains Kiowa Lateral Expansion Project in Weld County,
Colorado in order to allow for transportation service from a new
natural gas processing plant located in the Denver-Julesburg (DJ) Basin
to an interconnect with CIG's High Plains pipeline system.
Specifically, CIG requests to construct, own, and operate: (i) The
Kiowa Lateral, an approximately 9.2 mile 24-inch-diameter natural gas
pipeline lateral; (ii) the Prairie Hound Meter Station, a new receipt
meter on the proposed Kiowa Lateral; (iii) the High Five Lateral, an
approximately 0.7 mile 24-inch diameter natural gas pipeline lateral;
and (iv) the High Five Meter Station, a new meter station at the
terminus of the proposed High Five Lateral. CIG states the proposed new
facilities would enable CIG to provide an additional 410,000 dekatherms
per day of firm transportation capacity from the DJ Basin to CIG's High
Plains and mainline system. CIG states the project would cost
approximately $26,600,000, all as more fully set forth in the
application, which is on file with the Commission and open to public
inspection.
The filing is available for review at the Commission in the Public
Reference Room or may be viewed on the Commission's website web at

Notice of Schedule for Environmental Review. If a Notice of Schedule
for Environmental Review is issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the Commission staff's issuance of
the EA for this proposal. The filing of the EA in the Commission's
public record for this proceeding or the issuance of a Notice of
