DCP also requests for waivers of regulatory requirements regarding the proposed LaSalle Residue Line. The filing may also be viewed on the Web at https://www.ferc.gov using the ‘‘eLibrary’’ link.

DCP is a non-jurisdictional gas gathering company having facilities in Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Louisiana, Colorado, Kansas, Arkansas, and Wyoming. DCP generally operates these facilities to deliver raw gas to processing plants. To address the new development of Niobrara Shale in the Denver-Julesburg Basin (DJ Basin), DCP proposes to construct the LaSalle Residue Line connecting the LaSalle System with an interstate system, Colorado Interstate Gas Company (CIG). The LaSalle Residue Line has a design capacity of 230 MMcf/day and will be used for transportation of natural gas solely on behalf of DCP without payment of any additional charge for the service. DCP does not intend to transport gas through the LaSalle Residue Line for shippers other than DCP. The pipeline will be constructed entirely inside DCP’s right of way and costs approximately $12 million. Any questions regarding this application should be directed to Katie Rice, DCP Midstream, LP, 370 17th Street, Suite 2500, Denver, Colorado 80202.
