Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company;

Notice of Request Under Blanket

Authorization

September 17, 1997.

Take notice that on September 11,

1997, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company

(Tennessee), P.O. Box 2511, Houston,

Texas 77252, filed in Docket No. CP97–

748–000 a request pursuant to Sections

157.205 and 157.212 of the

Commission’s Regulations under the

Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205 and

157.212) for approval to convert an

existing receipt point for SONAT

Intrastate-Alabama (SONAT), an

intrastate pipeline company, under

Tennessee’s blanket certificate issued in

Docket No. CP82–413–000, pursuant to

Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act

(NGA), all as more fully set forth in the

request which is on file with the

Commission and open to public

inspection.

Tennessee proposes to convert

existing receipt point No. 1–2038

located in Lamar County, Alabama, by

removing an eight-inch check-valve,

installing a spool piece, and modifying

the existing electronic measuring

equipment to function as a delivery

meter. Tennessee asserts that SONAT

will reimburse Tennessee for the cost of

this project, which Tennessee estimates

to be $20,800.

Tennessee states that the volumes of

natural gas to be delivered to SONAT at

the proposed delivery point will be on

an interruptible basis. Tennessee asserts

that the total volumes delivered to

SONAT before the conversion of the

receipt point do not exceed the total

volumes to be delivered to SONAT after

the conversion and that this change is

not prohibited by an existing tariff.

Tennessee further asserts that it has

sufficient capacity to accomplish the

deliveries specified herein without

detriment or disadvantage to

Tennessee’s other customers.

Any person or the Commission’s Staff

may, within 45 days of the issuance of

the instant notice by the Commission,

file pursuant to Rule 214 of the

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedure (18 CFR 385.214), a motion to

intervene 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 activities shall be deemed

to be authorized effective the day after
