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

NorAm Gas Transmission Company;

Notice of Application

June 17, 1996.

Take notice that on June 10, 1996,

NorAm Gas Transmission Company

(NGT), P.O. Box 21734, Shreveport,

Louisiana 71151, filed an application

with the Commission in Docket No.

CP96–562–000 pursuant to Sections 7(b)

and 7(c) of the National Gas Act (NGA)

for permission and approval to abandon

and move compression facilities and

appurtenances thereto, located in Yell

County, Arkansas, and the authority to

construct and operate a new mainline

compressor station in Conway County,

Arkansas, all as more fully set forth in

the application which is open to the

public for inspection.

NGT proposes to abandon the

Chambers Compressor Station which

consists of one 4,000 H.P. engine

located on NGT’s Line BT–1 in Yell

County and to reclaim the compressor

and associated equipment which would

then be used in the construction of a

new 4,000 H.P. compressor station (the

Round Mountain Compressor Station),

to be located on NGT’s Line J in Conway

County. NGT estimates that it would

cost $2,377,252 to abandon and remove

the Chambers Compressor Station and

to construct and operate the Round

Mountain Compressor Station. NorAm

states that no service to any of its

existing customers would be affected by

this proposal.

Any person desiring to be heard or to

make any protest with reference to said

application should on or before July 8,

1996, file with the Federal Energy

Regulatory Commission, Washington,

D.C. 20426, a motion to intervene or a

protest in accordance with the

requirements of the Commission’s Rules

of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR

385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations

under the NGA (18 CFR 157.10). All

protests filed with the Commission will

be considered by it in determining the

appropriate action to be taken but will

not serve to make the protestants parties

to the proceeding. Any person wishing

to become a party to a proceeding or to

participate as a party in any hearing

therein must file a motion to intervene

in accordance with the Commission’s

Rules.

Take further notice that, pursuant to

the authority contained in and subject to

the jurisdiction conferred upon the

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

by Sections 7 and 15 of the NGA and the

Commission’s Rules of Practice and

Procedure, a hearing will be held

without further notice before the

Commission or its designee on this

application if no motion to intervene is

filed within the time required herein, if

the Commission on its own review of

the matter finds that a grant of the

certificate is required by the public

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 NGT to appear or be

represented at the hearing.
