[Docket No. CP00-378-000]
Eastern Shore Natural Gas Company; Notice of Request Under
Blanket Authorization
June 14, 2000.
Take notice that on June 6, 2000, as supplemented on June 13, 2000,
Eastern Shore Natural Gas Company (Eastern Shore), P.O. Box 1769,
Dover, Delaware 19903-1769, filed in Docket No. CP00-378-000 a request
pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 157.211 of the Commission's
Regulations (18 CFR 157.205 and 157.211) under the Natural Gas Act
(NGA) for authorization to construct and operate a tap and meter
station in Kent County, Delaware to provide interruptible service to
First State Power Management, Inc. (First State), an end user, under
Eastern Shore's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP83-40-000,
pursuant to Section 7 of 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 be viewed on the web at http://
www.ferc.fed.us/online/htm (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).
Eastern Shore indicates that, in addition to the tap and meter
station, it will construct a delivery lateral 2,425 feet of 8-inch
pipeline to deliver the gas to First State, which it will construct
under Section157.208(a) of the Commission's Regulations as an eligible
facility. Eastern Shore states that it will use these facilities to
deliver up to 800,000 dt per year on an interruptible basis pursuant to
the terms of Eastern Shore's IT rate schedule.
Eastern Shore estimates the cost of the tap and meter station at
$95,000, and the cost of the pipeline lateral at $195,000, all of which
it will be reimbursed by First State. It is asserted that Eastern
Shore's tariff does not prohibit the addition of delivery point
facilities.
Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission file pursuant to Rule
214 of the Commission's Procedural Rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to
intervene or notice of intervention and pursuant to Section 157.205 of
the Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to the
request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor, the
proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective the day
after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a protest is filed and
not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for
authorization pursuant to Section 7 of the NGA.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
