Notice of Filing; Northern Natural Gas Company

    Take notice that on September 28, 2017, the Kansas Corporation 
Commission (KCC) made a filing styled as a Motion to Show Cause. In the 
filing, KCC alleges that Northern Natural Gas Company (Northern) has 
failed to comply with the Commission's June 2, 2010 Order regarding 
Northern's buffer zone around the Cunningham storage field in Pratt and 
Kingman Counties, Kansas.\1\ KCC's filing is in response to an April 
26-27, 2017 release of natural gas from a well within Northern's buffer 
zone around the Cunningham storage field. KCC asserts that Northern has 
failed to comply with the Commission's directive to halt the migration 
of gas from its Cunningham storage field in the Viola and Simpson 
formations. Specifically, KCC posits that Northern has failed to obtain 
control of wells within the buffer zone and that such wells are not 
properly maintained to protect the integrity of the storage field and 
prevent further migration of storage gas.
