Record warmth and much below average storage withdrawals this winter have prompted Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America to file a request with FERC to increase the capacity of its Cook Mills storage field by 1.2 Bcf to 6.4 Bcf. The increase would be accomplished by raising the pressure of the field, which is located in Coles and Douglas counties, IL. No new facilities are planned, and NGPL said it does not intend to increase the deliverability of the field.
