HOUSTON, Nov. 8 -- Chevron Global Gas said it filed an application Nov. 2 with the US Federal Energy Regulatory Commission to build an underground natural gas storage facility in northeastern Colorado near Brush in Morgan County.

The Windy Hill project will include four salt storage caverns with a total capacity of 6 bcf of gas.

Construction of the first two storage caverns is slated to begin as early as 2006. Chevron expects to provide service from the first two storage caverns in 2008, and the third and fourth storage caverns in 2010.
