Questar Overthrust Pipeline Company
(Overthrust), 180 East 100 South, Salt
Lake City, Utah 84111, filed an
application to section 7(c) of the Natural
Gas Act (NGA) seeking authority to
expand its interstate natural-gas
transmission system by constructing
and operating two new compressor
packages. One compressor package will
be located at a new Compressor Station
called Point of Rocks and the other
compressor package will be installed in
a vacant bay in an existing building at
the existing Rock Springs Compressor
Station. The proposed Point of Rocks
station and the Rock Springs station are
both located within Sweetwater County,
Wyoming, all as more fully set forth in
the application. This filing is available
for review at the Commission in the
Public Reference Room or may be
viewed on the Commission’s Web site at
https://www.ferc.gov using the

contact (202) 502–8659.
Overthrust explains that the proposed
new pipeline facilities, known as the
Overthrust Compression Expansion
Project (Compression Expansion), will
enable it to transport an additional
300,000 Dth/d of natural gas from
receipt points at Opal, Wyoming, to the
existing interconnect with REX near
Wamsutter, Wyoming. It is further
explained that Overthrust has

negotiated a Transportation Service
Agreement with Encana Marketing
(USA) Inc. that has subscribed for the
entire 300,000 Dth/d of incremental
capacity created by the project.
Overthrust states that by letter dated
October 9, 2008, in Docket No. PF06–
34–000, the Commission’s Office of
Energy Projects granted Overthrust’s
September 26, 2008, request to utilize
the Commission’s Pre-Filing Process for
the planned Compression Expansion.
Overthrust has also submitted an
applicant-prepared Draft Environmental
Assessment that was prepared during
the Pre-Filing Process that was included
with this application.
Any questions regarding Overthrust’s
proposal in this application should be
Directed to L. Bradley Burton, Manager,
Federal Regulatory Affairs, Questar
Pipeline Company, 180 East 100 South,
P.O. Box 45360, Salt Lake City, Utah
84145, telephone: (801) 324–2459 or email: brad.burton@questar.com or Tad

On October 9, 2008, the Commission
staff granted Overthrust’s request to
utilize the National Environmental
Policy Act (NEPA) Pre-Filing Process
and assigned Docket No. PF06–34–000
to staff activities involving the project.
Now, as of the filing of this application
on March 5, 2009, the NEPA Pre-Filing
Process for this project has ended. From
this time forward, this proceeding will
be conducted in Docket No. CP09–76–
000, as noted in the caption of this
notice.
Pursuant to section 157.9 of the
Commission’s rules, 18 CFR 157.9,
within 90 days of this Notice the
Commission staff will either: complete
its environmental assessment (EA) and
place it into the Commission’s public
record (eLibrary) for this proceeding; or
issue a Notice of Schedule for
Environmental Review. If a Notice of
Schedule for Environmental Review is
issued, it will indicate, among other
milestones, the anticipated date for the
Commission staff’s issuance of the final
environmental impact statement (FEIS)
or EA for this proposal. The filing of the
EA in the Commission’s public record
for this proceeding or the issuance of a
Notice of Schedule for Environmental
Review will serve to notify Federal and
State agencies of the timing for the
completion of all necessary reviews, and
the subsequent need to complete all

There are two ways to become
involved in the Commission’s review of
this project. First, any person wishing to
obtain legal status by becoming a party
to the proceedings for this project
should, on or before the comment date
stated below, file with the Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission, 888
First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426,
a motion to intervene 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 NGA (18
CFR 157.10). A person obtaining party
status will be placed on the service list
maintained by the Secretary of the
Commission and will receive copies of
all documents filed by the applicant and
by all other parties. A party must submit
14 copies of filings made with the
Commission and must mail a copy to
the applicant and to every other party in
the proceeding. Only parties to the
proceeding can ask for court review of
Commission orders in the proceeding.
However, a person does not have to
intervene in order to have comments
considered. The second way to
participate is by filing with the
Secretary of the Commission, as soon as
possible, an original and two copies of
comments in support of or in opposition
to this project. The Commission will
consider these comments in
determining the appropriate action to be
taken, but the filing of a comment alone
will not serve to make the filer a party
to the proceeding. The Commission’s
rules require that persons filing
comments in opposition to the project
provide copies of their protests only to
the party or parties directly involved in
the protest.
Persons who wish to comment only
on the environmental review of this
project should submit an original and
two copies of their comments to the
Secretary of the Commission.
Environmental commentors will be
placed on the Commission’s
environmental mailing list, will receive
copies of the environmental documents,
and will be notified of meetings
associated with the Commission’s
environmental review process.
Environmental commentors will not be
required to serve copies of filed
documents on all other parties.
However, the non-party commentors
will not receive copies of all documents
filed by other parties or issued by the
Commission (except for the mailing of
environmental documents issued by the
Commission) and will not have the right

to seek court review of the
Commission’s final order.

electronic filings of comments, protests
and interventions in lieu of paper using
the ‘‘eFiling’’ link at https://
www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file
electronically should submit an original
and 14 copies of the protest or
