Re:                             Request for Acceleration of Effectiveness of Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Registration No. 333-170911) (the “Registration Statement”) of Niska Gas Storage Partners LLC, Niska Gas Storage US, LLC, Niska Gas Storage US Finance Corp., Niska Gas Storage Canada ULC, Niska Gas Storage Canada Finance Corp., and the Additional Registrants Listed in the Registration Statement (the “Registrants”)

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

On behalf of the Registrants, pursuant to Rule 461 of the Securities Act of 1933, we hereby withdraw our previous request that the effectiveness of the above captioned Registration Statement be accelerated so that the Registration Statement would become effective on February 4, 2011 at 12:00 p.m. Washington DC time and instead request that the effectiveness of the Registration Statement be accelerated so that the Registration Statement will become effective on February 3, 2011 at 4:00 p.m., Washington, D.C. time, or as soon as thereafter practicable.  The Registrants hereby acknowledge that:

 

·                                          should the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) or the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”), acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing;

 

·                                          the action of the Commission or the Staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority in declaring the filing effective, does not relieve the Registrants from their full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing; and

 

·                                          the Registrants may not assert Staff comments and the declaration of effectiveness as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

 

Please call E. Ramey Layne of Vinson & Elkins L.L.P., counsel to the Registrants, at (212) 237-0135 with any questions regarding this matter.
