BILLING CODE 6717-01-P DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY Federal Energy Regulatory Commission [Docket No. CP12-60-000] Williston Basin Interstate Pipeline Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket Authorization Take notice that on February 15, 2012, Williston Basin Interstate Pipeline Company (Williston Basin), 1250 West Century Avenue, Bismarck, North Dakota 58503, pursuant to its blanket certificate issued in Docket Nos. CP82-487-000, *et al.,* 1 filed an application in accordance to sections 157.208(b) of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act
(NGA)as amended, to permanently operate a mainline natural gas sales tap located in Williams County, North Dakota, all as more fully set forth in the application, which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection. 1 30 FERC ¶ 61,143 (1985). The new sales tap was installed as an emergency natural gas transportation transaction on December 22, 2011 under Part 284, Subpart I of the Commission's Regulations. The sales tap installation included a steel pipe riser with a shut-in valve and other pipe fittings at the location located in Williston Basin's existing pipeline right-of-way. The sales tap was necessary to meet an emergency request by Montana-Dakota Utilities, Inc. (Montana-Dakota) to ensure uninterrupted firm sales service to Montana-Dakota's customers in the southwestern portion of the city of Williston, North Dakota. Montana-Dakota will use existing firm and interruptible transportation contracts to serve the demand through this tap; sufficient pipeline capacity exists on Williston Basin's system to serve the demand with no operational impact. The cost of the facilities constructed by Williston Basin is approximately $5,000.00 and will be fully reimbursed by Montana-Dakota.
