[Docket No. CP96-355-000]


Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

May 8, 1996.
    Take notice that on April 26, 1996, as supplemented on May 1, 1996, 
Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company (Tennessee), P.O. Box 2511, Houston, 
Texas 77252-2511, filed in Docket No. CP96-355-000 a request pursuant 
to Sections 157.205 and 157.212(a)) of the Commission's Regulations 
under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205 and 157.212(a)) for 
authorization to modify an existing receipt point interconnection 
located in LaFourche Parish, Louisiana, to also provide delivery point 
capabilities for Riverside Pipeline Company (Riverside), an intrastate 
pipeline company, under the blanket certificate issued in Docket No. 
CP82-413-000, all as more fully set forth in the request which is on 
file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Tennessee states that Riverside requested modification of the 
existing receipt point to provide delivery point capabilities. Service 
will be provided pursuant to Riverside's interruptible transportation 
agreement with Tennessee. Tennessee proposes to replace the existing 2-
inch 600# RF X RF check valve with a 2.375-inch O.D. spool pieced and 
install a 2-inch orifice restriction plate. Tennessee will continue to 
own, operate, and maintain the side valve assembly. Riverside will own, 
operate, and maintain the meter facility and will own the new 
installation of a 2-inch orifice tube. The estimated cost of this 
project is $20,705, 100% reimbursable to Tennessee.
    Tennessee states that there is no proposed increase in the maximum 
contract quantity for Riverside. Tennessee notes that there will be no 
impact on peak day or annual deliveries. Tennessee states that once the 
proposed facilities are in place, it will deliver from 500-750 
Dekatherms per day. Tennessee asserts that the end-user of the gas will 
be Riverside and LLOG Exploration. Tennessee asserts that the 
establishment of the new delivery point is not prohibited by its 
existing tariff. Tennessee states that it has sufficient capacity to 
accomplish deliveries at the requested point without detriment or 
disadvantage to any 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 therefore, 
the proposed activity shall be deemed authorized effective 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.
