DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory

Commission

[Docket No. CP00–51–003]

East Tennessee Natural Gas Company;

Notice of Amendment

November 6, 2000.

Take notice that on October 27, 2000,

East Tennessee Natural Gas Company

(East Tennessee), Post Office Box 1642,

Houston, Texas 77251–1642, filed a

petition with the Commission in Docket

No. CP00–51–003 to amend the

Commission order issued in Docket Nos.

CP00–51–000 and CP00–51–001,1

pursuant to section 7(c) of the Natural

Gas Act (NGA), to vacate, in part,

authorization granted to construct,

install, and operate various pipeline

facilities as part of its Rocky Top

Expansion Project and to revise the

directed incremental transportation rate

from $10.201 per Dekatherm of natural

gas to $8.780 per Dekatherm, all as more

fully set forth in the amendment which

is open to the public for inspection.

East Tennessee states that it no longer

needs to undertake the following

activities at the following facilities

because of changes in market

conditions:

(1) Increase the horsepower of three

existing Solar Saturn turbine

compressor units at Compressor Station

3101 near Ridgetop, Robertson County,

Tennessee;

(2) Uprate 4.56 miles of 22-inch

diameter pipeline between Mainline

Value (MLV) 3107–1, Overton County,

Tennessee, and MLV 3107–1A in

Overton County, Tennessee;

(3) Uprate 12.85 miles of 22-inch

diameter pipeline between MLV 3107–

1A, in Overton County, Tennessee, to

MLV 3108–1 in Overton County,

Tennessee;

(4) Uprate the dual 10-inch Tennessee

River pipeline crossings and relocate

MLV 3213–1A1 and MLV 3213–1A2

assemblies within 200 feet west of their

existing locations at Mile Post 3.19 in

Hamilton County, Tennessee;

(5) Uprate by hydrotesting the existing

Chattanooga North, Red Bank,

Chattanooga East, and Chattanooga

Volunteer Ordinance meter stations on

the 3200 Line in Hamilton County,

Tennessee;

(6) Install new bidirectional metering

facilities near MLV Site 3108–1 at the

existing Citizens Meter Station in

Morgan County, Tennessee; and,

(7) Uprate Value Section 3105–1 from

Mile Post 11.20 to Mile Post 13.57 at

Cumberland River in Jackson County,

Tennessee.

East Tennessee states that the revised

cost estimate for the proposed additions,

modifications, and testing is

$18,129,000, rather than the original

cost estimate of $21,162,000 for the new

facilities. Consequently, East Tennessee

proposes a revised initial incremental

transportation rate to reflect the reduced

scope of the facilities to be constructed

as part of the Rocky Top Expansion

Project. Instead of the directed

incremental transportation rate of

$10.201 per Dekatherm of natural gas,

East Tennessee now proposes to charge

an incremental transportation rate of

$8.780 per Dekatherm of natural gas

under East Tennessee’s Rate Schedule

FT–A.

The project is more fully set forth in

the application on file with the

Commission and open for public

inspection. The application may be

viewed on the web at www.ferc.fed.us/

Affairs, East Tennessee Natural Gas

Company, P.O. Box 1642, Houston,

the hearing process or to make any

protest with reference to said

application should on or before

November 27, 2000, file with the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission,

888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC

20426, a motion to intervene or a protest

in accordance with the requirements of

the Commission’s rules 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

whether filed by commenters or those

requesting intervenor status.

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 Commission’s rules of practice

and procedure, a hearing will be held

Commission or its designee on this

application if no motion to intervene is

filed within the time required herein, if

convenience and necessity. If a motion

for leave to intervene is timely filed, or

if the Commission on its own motion

believes that a formal hearing is

required, further notice of such hearing

will be duly given.

Under the procedure herein provided

for, unless otherwise advised, it will be

unnecessary for East Tennessee to

appear or be represented at the hearing.

Secretary.
