DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP99-170-000]

 
Texas Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

January 28, 1999.

    Take notice that on January 22, 1999, Texas Gas Transmission 
Corporation (Texas Gas), P.O. Box 20008, Owensboro, Kentucky 42304, 
filed in Docket No. CP99-170-000 a request pursuant to sections 157.205 
and 157.216 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act 
(18 CFR 157.205 and 157.216) for authorization to abandon the existing 
measurement facilities at its LaFourche No. 1 Delivery Meter Station 
located on Texas Gas' Bayou Chevreuil-Trahan 10-Inch Pipeline in 
LaFourche Parish, Louisiana, under Texas Gas' blanket certificate 
issued in Docket No. CP82-407-000 pursuant to section 7 of the Natural 
Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request that is on file 
with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Texas Gas states that it currently delivers gas to Trans Louisiana 
Gas Company, a Division of Atmos Energy Corporation, (TransLa) at the 
LaFourche No. 1 Delivery Meter Station. TransLa has requested that 
Texas Gas permit it to render gas service at this meter site, and Texas 
Gas has agreed to allow TransLa to be the custody transfer provider at 
this location. To accomplish this change in delivery of gas, Texas Gas 
agreed to file for approval to retire its existing measurement 
facilities at the LaFourche No. 1 Delivery Meter Station.
    Thereafter, TransLa will install, own, operate and maintain 
measurement, regulation, odorization and other related facilities 
necessary to provide service at this meter site on Texas Gas' existing 
meter lot.
    Texas Gas has agreed to pay to TransLa up to a maximum of $13,880 
as a contribution in aid for the costs relative to the installation of 
the above-mentioned facilities. No new facilities are required to be 
constructed by Texas Gas to provide service to TransLa.
    Texas Gas states that the abandonment of facilities will not result 
in any termination of currently provided service. Texas Gas states that 
its existing tariff does not prohibit this activity and that there is 
sufficient capacity to accommodate the proposed changes without 
detriment or disadvantage to its other customers.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after 
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule 
214 of the Commission's Procedural Rules (18 CFR 385.214) a motion to 
intervene or notice of intervention and pursuant to section 157.205 of 
the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to 
the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor, 
the proposed activity shall be deemed to be authorized effective in the 
day after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a protest is filed 
and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 
protest, the instant request shall be treated as an application for 
authorization pursuant to section 7 of the Natural Gas Act.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
