Secs. 157.205 and 157.216 of the Commission's Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205 and 157.216) for authorization under

located on the 10'' Tie-Over Line in Tipton County, Tennessee, and the 
Westover sales tap located on the Ripley-Jackson 8'' Line in Madison 
County, Tennessee.
    Texas Gas states it has received letter requests from the Covington 
Gas Company, City of Covington, and the Jackson Utility Division, City 
of Jackson, to abandon service to the unnecessary Vandergrift and 
Westover sales taps since customers will be using the Covington and 
Jackson No. 3 existing taps, respectively. Texas Gas states that 
service to customers of Covington and Jackson will not be affected by 
these two abandonments.
    The Vandergrift delivery point is an existing farm tap served by 
Covington and in turn served by Texas Gas under a Firm No Notice 
Transportation Agreement between Texas Gas and Covington dated November 
1, 1993. The Westover delivery point is an existing tap served by 
Jackson and in turn served by Texas Gas under a Firm No Notice 
Transportation Agreement between Texas Gas and Jackson dated November

looped line facilities, with approximately 2,820 feet of new mainline 
facilities and approximately 5,200 feet of new loop line facilities. It

bypass a rural residential subdivision. Mid La. states that a portion 
of the existing line facilities, runs through the rural residential 
subdivision.

finds that a grant of the certificate and/or permission and approval 
for the proposed abandonment are 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.
