May 31, 1996.

Take notice that the following filings

have been made with the Commission:

1. NorAm Gas Transmission Company

[Docket No. CP96–519–000]

Take notice that on May 13, 1996, as

supplemented on May 28, 1996, NorAm

Gas Transmission Company (NGT),

1600 Smith Street, Houston, Texas

77002, filed in Docket No. CP96–519–

000, a request pursuant to Sections

157.205, 157.211 and 157.216 of the

Commission’s Regulations under the

Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 18

CFR 157.211, and 157.216) for

authorization under its blanket

certificate issued in Docket Nos. CP82–

384–000 and CP82–384–001, pursuant

to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, to

abandon certain facilities in Arkansas

and Louisiana and to operate their

existing replacement facilities as

jurisdictional facilities to provide

transportation services under Subpart G

of Part 284 of the Commission’s

regulations, all as more fully set forth in

the request which is on file with the

Commission and open to public

inspection.

NGT requests authority, pursuant to

18 CFR 157.216, to abandon one 2-inch

tap and 2-inch U-Shape meter station

located on NGT’s N Line in Caddo

Parish, Louisiana. NGT relates that these

facilities were originally installed in

1952, and certificated in Docket No. G–

252, to serve ARKLA, a distribution

division of NorAM Energy Corp.

(ARKLA). Additionally, NGT requests

authority, pursuant to 18 CFR 157.216,

to abandon two 1-inch first-cut

regulators located on NGT’s Line TM–3

in Hot Spring County, Arkansas. NGT

relates that these facilities were

originally installed in 1967, and

certificated in Docket No. CP67–83–000,

to serve ARKLA. NGT says no service is

to be abandoned, and the abandoned

facilities will be reclaimed.

NGT seeks authority to operate the

existing 4-inch tap and 4-inch Skidmounted meter station (which replaced

the one 2-inch tap and 2-inch U-Shape

meter station) on NGT’s Line N in

Section 30, Township 17 North, Range

14 West, Caddo Parish, Louisiana in

order to provide transportation services

under Subpart G of Part 284 of the

Commission’s regulations. NGT states

that these facilities were installed in

April 1996, solely to provide services

authorized under Section 311 of the

NGPA and Subpart B of the

Commission’s regulations, to serve

ARKLA’s request for increased volumes.

NGT states the estimated volumes to be

delivered are approximately 127,000

MMBtu annually and 400 MMBtu on a

peak day on an interruptible basis. NGT

says these facilities were constructed at

an estimated cost of $24,193 and

ARKLA will reimburse NGT the total

construction cost.

NGT seeks authority to operate two

existing 1-inch Moonne first-cut

regulators (which replaced the two 1-

inch first-cut regulators) located on

NGT’s Line TM–3 in Section 16,

Township 4 South, Range 16 West, Hot

Spring County, Arkansas in order to

provide transportation services under

Subpart G of Part 284 of the

Commission’s regulations. NGT states

these facilities were installed in March

1996, solely to provide services

authorized under Section 311 of the

NGPA and Subpart B of the

Commission’s regulations to serve

ARKLA’s distribution customers at its

existing Malvern Town Border Station.

NGT states the estimated volumes to be

delivered through these facilities are
