Tuscarora Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

September 18, 1995.
    Take notice that on August 31, 1995, Tuscarora Gas Transmission 
Company (Tuscarora), 6100 Neil Road, P.O. Box 30057, Reno, Nevada 
89520-3057 filed in Docket No. CP95-723-000, a request pursuant to 
Section 157.205 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas 
Act (18 CFR 157.205) for authorization to construct and operate a new 
tap and meter station in Washoe County, Nevada, to be known as the La 
Posada Meter Site, for the delivery of gas to an existing customer, 
Sierra Pacific Power Company (SPPC), under the blanket certificate 
issued in Docket No. CP93-685-000, 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.
    Tuscarora proposes to install an 8-inch tap and associated meter at 
Milepost 217.2 on its mainline in Washoe County, Nevada to establish an 
additional point for the delivery of natural gas to SPPC, for 
redelivery and resale to consumers in Reno, Nevada and environs. 
Tuscarora indicates that construction of the tap will enable SPPC to 
receive up to 12,000 MMBtu of natural gas directly into the La Posada 
area of its existing service area. Tuscarora asserts that the 
construction of this additional delivery point is consistent with 
Tuscarora's tariff and the total volume to be delivered to SPPC will 
not exceed the volume previously authorized for delivery to SPPC. 
Tuscarora states the projected cost of the proposed facilities is 
$198,000.
    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not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
