[Docket No. CP08-37-000]
Questar Pipeline Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket
Authorization
December 20, 2007.
Take notice that on December 17, 2007, Questar Pipeline Company,
(Questar), 180 East 100 South, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111, filed in
Docket No. CP08-37-000, a prior notice request pursuant to sections
157.205 and 157.216 of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's
regulations under the Natural Gas Act for authorization to abandon, by
removal, the Skull Creek Compressor Station (Skull Creek) and
appurtenant facilities, located in Sweetwater County, Wyoming, all as
more fully set forth in the application, which is on file with the
Commission and open to public inspection. The filing may also be viewed

Questar proposes to abandon and relocate the two compressor units
at Skull Creek to achieve a higher utilization from the assets. Questar
states that the compressors will be at Greasewood in Rio Blanco County,
Colorado, to deliver gas from Questar into the proposed White River
Hub. Questar declares that as a result of changes over the years in
natural gas markets, there is now only one firm contract utilizing
Skull Creek, with that contract expiring April 30, 2008. Questar
asserts that the firm customer has purchased replacement capacity,
beginning in January 2008, on the Rockies Express Pipeline, which
satisfies its capacity needs previously provided by Skull Creek.
Questar estimates the cost to remove the Skull Creek facilities to be
$500,000.
Any questions regarding the application should be directed to L.

intervene or notice of intervention and, pursuant to section 157.205 of
the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) (18 CFR
