Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Request for Waiver

November 3, 1999.
    Take notice that on November 1, 1999, Tennessee Gas Pipeline 
Company (Tennessee), tendered for filing a Request for Waiver. 
Tennessee requests that the Commission approve its request by November 
15, 1999.
    Tennessee states that it is requesting a waiver of two provisions 
of Article X of the General Terms and Conditions of its FERC Gas Tariff 
to permit it to conduct routine, non-emergency maintenance during a 
period other than May 1 through November 1, without the obligation to 
post a tentative schedule of the planned maintenance on Tennessee's 
Electronic Bulletin Board no later than fifteen days prior to the 
scheduled activity.
    Tennessee states that it is seeking a waiver from the Commission of 
the first of the two provisions because Tennessee believes that the 
maintenance work is necessary to avoid any unplanned outages resulting 
from the failure of any of the related facilities. Tennessee states 
that it is seeking a waiver from the Commission of the second of the 
two provisions because Tennessee believes the requirement is 
unnecessary since Tennessee has already consulted with each of the 
parties affected by the maintenance and because Tennessee believes that 
the EBB posting requirement could result in Tennessee missing the 
opportune time to complete the maintenance work for each project while 
waiting for the fifteen days to elapse.
    Tennessee indicates that the filing does not include revised tariff 
sheets.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or a protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, 
in accordance with Sections 385.214 or 385.211 of the Commission's 
Rules and Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed on or 
before November 10, 1999. Protests will be considered by the Commission 
in determining the appropriate action to be taken, but will not serve 
to make protestants parties to the proceedings. Any person wishing to 
become a party must file a motion to intervene. Copies of this filing 
are on file with the Commission and are available for public inspection 
in the Public Reference Room. This filing may be viewed on the web at

assistance).
