Notice of Application: DCP Operating
Company, LP
Take notice that on August 2, 2017,
DCP Operating Company, LP (DCP), 370
17th Street, Suite 2500, Denver,
Colorado 80202, filed in the above
referenced docket an application
pursuant to section 7(c) of the Natural
Gas Act (NGA), and Part 157 of the
Commission’s regulations requesting
authorization to construct and operate
approximately 8.4 miles of 20-inchdiameter natural gas pipeline with a
maximum capacity of 253million cubic
feet per day (MMcf/d) in Weld County,
Colorado (Mewbourn 3 Residue East
Pipeline), all as more fully set forth in
the application which is on file with the
Commission and open to public
inspection. The filing is available for
review at the Commission in the Public
Reference Room or may be viewed on
the Commission’s Web site web at
https://www.ferc.gov using the
‘‘eLibrary’’ link. Enter the docket
number excluding the last three digits in
the docket number field to access the
document. For assistance, contact FERC
at FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or call
toll-free, (866) 208–3676 or TYY, (202)
502–8659.
Any questions concerning this
application may be directed to Tyler
Culbertson, Manager, Regulatory Affairs,
DCP Operating Company, LP, 370 17th
Street, Suite 2500, Denver, Colorado
80202, at (303) 605–2278.
Further, DCP asks for clarification
about the applicability of the Part 157,
Subpart F blanket certificate program to
Mewbourn 3 Residue East Pipeline. DPC
also seeks waivers of certain regulatory
requirements, including the
Commission’s interstate natural gas
pipeline open access, tariff, posting,
accounting, and reporting requirements,
like similar residue pipeline owner/
operators. DCP wants confirmation that
the Commission’s assertion of
jurisdiction over the Mewbourn 3
Residue East Pipeline in no way
jeopardizes the non-jurisdictional status

of DCP’s otherwise non-jurisdictional
gathering and processing facilities.
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
federal authorizations within 90 days of
the date of issuance of the Commission
staff’s FEIS or EA.
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
seven copies of filings made in the
proceeding with the Commission and
must mail a copy to the applicant and
to every other party. 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
