(Eastex), under the blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-413-000, pursuant to section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request which is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection. Tennessee states that it entered into an interruptible transportation agreement with Eastex for service under Tennessee's Rate Schedule IT. Tennessee indicates that, in order to implement the delivery of gas to Eastex of up to 600 dt equivalent of natural gas per day, it proposes to install, own, operate and maintain a two-inch hot tap assembly, interconnect piping and measurement facilities in Alcorn County, Mississippi. It is indicated that the tie-in assembly would be constructed on Tennessee's existing right of way and that the measurement facility would be installed on a site adjacent to Tennessee's right of way. Tennessee states that the facilities would cost an estimated $19,142, which would be 100% reimbursable to Tennessee. Tennessee states that construction of the proposed delivery point is not prohibited by its existing tariff. Tennessee further states that the addition of the delivery facilities would have no impact on Tennessee's peak day and annual deliveries. Comment date: February 3, 1994, in accordance with Standard Paragraph G at the end of this notice. 2. Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company [Docket No. CP94-133-000] Take notice that on December 15, 1993, Panhandle Eastern Pipe Line Company (Panhandle), P.O.

Mississippi River Transmission Corporation [Docket No. CP94-136-000] Take notice that on December 15, 1993, Mississippi River Transmission Corporation (MRT), 9900 Clayton Road, St. Louis, Missouri 63124, filed in Docket No. CP94-136-000 a request pursuant to Secs. 157.205 and 157.212 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.212) for authorization to upgrade a delivery point used to serve Illinois Power Company (IP), an existing transportation customer, under MRT's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-489-000 pursuant to section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request that is on file with the Commission and open to public inspection. MRT proposes to upgrade its existing delivery point serving IP's Wood River Power Plant in East Alton, Illinois, by replacing two 4-inch control valves with two 6-inch control valves. MRT explains that the proposed facilities would reduce the pressure drop associated with deliveries to the Wood River Power Plant and thereby enable MRT to serve increased peak hourly demands of that facility. MRT advises that the upgrade would not result in an increase in the maximum daily or annual volumes which MRT would transport for IP under current agreements and authority. MRT estimates that the cost of the facilities would be $9,200 which would be reimbursed. Comment date: February 3, 1994, in accordance with Standard Paragraph G at the end of this notice. Standard Paragraphs G. 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 Sec. 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 shall be deemed to be 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.
