Texas Gas Transmission Corp.; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

March 28, 1997.
    Take notice that on March 24, 1997, Texas Gas Transmission 
Corporation (Texas Gas), P.O. Box 20008, Owensboro, Kentucky 42304, 
filed in the above docket, a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 
157.212 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act 
(N.A.) (18 CFR 157.205 and 157.212) for authorization to construct and 
operate a new delivery point in Gibson County, Indiana, for Southern 
Indiana Gas and Electric Company (SIGECO), a local distribution 
company, under Texas Gas' blanket certificate issued in Docket No. 
CP82-407-000 pursuant to Section 7 of the NGA, all as more fully set 
forth in the request which is filed with the Commission and open to 
public inspection.
    Texas Gas states that the proposed delivery point will be known as 
the Toyota-Ft. Branch Delivery Point and will be located on Texas Gas' 
Slaughters-Montezuma System in Gibson County, Indiana. Texas Gas states 
that this new delivery point will enable SIGECO to receive natural gas 
to be delivered by Texas Gas for the account of a new customer, Toyota 
Motor Manufacturing North America, Inc. (Toyota).
    Texas Gas states that it will install, own, operate and maintain 
two side valves with 6-inch tie-over piping on its Slaughters-Montezuma 
12-inch and 20-inch Lines and a dual 3-inch meter station with 
electronic flow measurement, telemetry and related facilities to be 
located on a site to be acquired by SIGECO, all near Mile 55 on Texas 
Gas' Slaughters-Montezuma System. Texas Gas states that the estimated 
costs of the facilities is $136,975 and SIGECO will reimburse Texas Gas 
for the cost of the facilities to be installed by Texas Gas.
    This service will be provided by Texas Gas pursuant to the 
authority of its blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP88-686-000 
and section 284.223 of the Commission's Regulations.
    Texas Gas states that since no increase in contract quantities has 
been requested by SIGECO and because Toyota intends to utilize existing 
mainline capacity on Texas Gas' system, the above proposal will have no 
significant effect on Texas Gas' peak day and annual deliveries, and 
service through this point can be accomplished without detriment to 
Texas Gas' 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 Rules of Practice and Procedure (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 is deemed to be authorized 
effective on 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.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
