As a result, Park and Loan nominations were not being accepted beginning Cycle 4 for Monday’s gas day and continuing in all cycles Tuesday. The compressor was expected to be repaired by Wednesday.

ANR said Monday it must begin unplanned engine repairs at St. John (IN) Compressor Station in Indiana, reducing total St. John west-to-east capacity by 115 MMcf/d (leaving 1,190 MMcf/d available) starting Wednesday.
