Texas Gas Transmission Corporation;

Notice of Application

May 12, 2000.

Take notice that on May 5, 2000,

pursuant to section 7 of the Natural Gas

Act (NGA) and part 157 of the

Regulations of the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission (Commission),

Texas Gas Transmission Corporation

(Texas Gas), P.O. Box 20008,

Owensboro, Kentucky 42304, filed in

Docket No. CP00–362–000 an

abbreviated application for a certificate

of public convenience and necessity to

be issued for the abandonment of five

injection/withdrawal wells and the

installation and operation of one

horizontal injection/withdrawal well

within it’s Midland Storage Field in

Muhlenberg County, Kentucky, all as

more fully set forth in the application

on file with the Commission and open

to public inspection. This filing may be

viewed on the web at http://

www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (call

202–208–2222 for assistance).

The name, address, and telephone

number of the person to whom

correspondence and communications

concerning this application should be

addressed is: David N. Roberts, Manager

of Certificates and Tariffs, Texas Gas

Transmission Corporation, PO Box

20008, Owensboro, Kentucky, 42304;

Phone No. 270/688–6712.

Texas Gas avers that the well

replacement will alleviate safety issues

associated with the existing five wells,

will restore well deliverability that has

deteriorated over time, and will allow

for more efficient utilization of the

storage reservoir. The project’s purpose

is not to increase the storage capacity or

deliverability of the Texas Gas Midland

Storage Field, but simply to guarantee

that existing levels can be maintained in

a safer, more cost effective and efficient

manner so that Texas Gas can continue

to meet customer contact obligations.

In association with the installation of

the replacement well, Texas Gas will

need to construct approximately 300

feet of 8-inch diameter lateral line to

connect the well to the existing 16-inch

diameter field tributary line. This lateral

line will be constructed pursuant to

Texas Gas’s blanket certificate

authorized in Docket No. CP82–407–000

(20 FERC ¶ 62,417 (1982)) and the

Commission’s blanket certificate

regulations found at 18 CFR part 157,

including the environmental conditions

found at 18 CFR 157.206(b).

Texas Gas has requested expedited

review of the application in order to

begin drilling of the horizontal

replacement well by July 1, 2000. This

would allow Texas Gas to complete the

proposed well during a period of low

field pressure and optimal drilling

conditions.

Any person desiring to be heard or

any person desiring to make any protest

with reference to said application

should on or before June 2, 2000, file

with the Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission, Washington, DC 20426, a

motion to intervene or a protest in

accordance with the requirements of the

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211)

and the Regulations under the Natural

Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). All protests

filed with the Commission will be

considered by it in determining the

appropriate action to be taken but will

not serve to make the protestants parties

to the proceeding. Any person wishing

to become party to a proceeding or to

participate as a party in any hearing

therein must file a motion to intervene

in accordance with the Commission’s

Rules.

Take further notice that, pursuant to

the authority contained in and subject to

the jurisdiction conferred upon the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

by sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas

Act and the Commission’s Rules of

Practice and Procedure, a hearing will

be held without further notice before the

Commission or its designee on this

application if not motion to intervene is

filed within the time required herein, if

the Commission on its own review of

the matter finds that a grant of the

certificate is required by the public

convenience and necessity. If a motion

for leave to intervene is timely filed, or
