[Docket No. RP10-337-000]

 
Wyoming Interstate Company, Inc.; Notice of Technical Conference

March 10, 2010.
    Take notice that Commission Staff will convene a technical 
conference in the above-referenced proceeding on Wednesday, March 24, 
2010, at 9 a.m. (EST), in a room to be designated at the offices of the 
Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426.
    The purpose of the conference is to address all issues arising from 
Wyoming Interstate Company's (WIC's) January 28, 2010 tariff filing. 
That filing was intended to revise the gas quality allocation 
procedures that WIC may implement when differing carbon dioxide or Btu 
standards on downstream pipelines cause these downstream pipelines to 
restrict or cease receipts into their pipeline systems to enforce their 
own gas quality specifications.
    WIC should be prepared to address all concerns raised by the 
parties in their comments to the filing, and to provide additional 
technical, engineering, and operational support for its proposed gas 
quality allocation procedures. Consistent with the Commission's policy 
statement on gas quality issues, WIC should also be prepared to explain 
how its proposal conforms with or differs from the Interim Guidelines 
and principles. See Natural Gas Interchangeability, Policy Statement on 
Provisions Governing Natural Gas Quality and Interchangeability in 
Interstate Natural Gas Pipeline Company Tariffs, 115 FERC ] 61,325 
(2006) P 34, 37.
    Further, WIC should be prepared to identify and discuss any 
existing gas quality waivers on its system, including how long those 
waivers have been in place. Any party proposing alternatives to WIC's 
proposals should be prepared to support its position with adequate 
technical, engineering, and operational information.
    FERC conferences are accessible under section 508 of the 
Rehabilitation Act of 1973. For accessibility accommodations please
