Take notice that on December 29, 1995, Williston Basin Interstate Pipeline Company (Williston Basin), Suite 300, 200 North Third Street, Bismarck, North Dakota 58501, filed in Docket No. CP96-62-000 an application pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act for authorization to modify the operating nature of its Glen Ullin Compressor Station in Glen Ullin, North Dakota, all as more fully set forth in the application on file with the Commission and open to public inspection. Williston Basin seeks authorization to use the Glen Ullin Compressor Station for mainline compression of natural gas, either east or west from the compressor station, in addition to its existing use as compression into Northern Border Pipeline Company's pipeline. As stated by Williston Basin, this modification will allow the operational efficiency and flexibility of the system to be enhanced. Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with reference to said application should on or before January 26, 1996, file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C. 20426, a motion to intervene or a protest 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 Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). All protests filed with the Commission will be considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be taken but will not serve to make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a party in any hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in accordance with the Commission's Rules. Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be held without further notice before the Commission or its designee on this application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time required herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter finds that a grant of the certificate is required by the public convenience and necessity. If a motion for leave to intervene is timely filed, or if the Commission on its own motion believes that a formal hearing is required, further notice of such hearing will be duly given. Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised, it will be unnecessary for Williston Basin to appear or be represented at the hearing. Lois D. Cashell, Secretary.
