[Docket No. CP96-56-000]


Southern Natural Gas Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

November 13, 1995.
    Take notice that on November 8, 1995, Southern Natural Gas Company 
(Southern), P.O. Box 2563, Birmingham, Alabama 35202-2563, filed a 
prior-notice request with the Commission in Docket No. CP96-56-000 
pursuant to Section 157.205 of the Commission's Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to modify an existing meter 
station to serve as a delivery point in the Saturday Island Field, 
Plaquemines Parish, Louisiana, under Southern's blanket certificates 
issued in Docket Nos. CP82-406-000 and CP88-316-000 pursuant to Section 
7 of the NGA, all as more fully set forth in the request which is open 
to the public for inspection.
    Southern proposes to modify an existing meter station at or near 
milepost 0.0 on its 4-inch diameter Saturday Island Field pipeline in 
Plaquemines Parish, by reversing and replacing the existing 4-inch 
meter (which currently has the capability to receive gas from the 
field) with a 2-inch meter run in order to deliver gas to Hubco 
Exploration Inc. (Hubco). Southern states that Hubco would reimburse 
Southern for the estimated $23,603 cost of modifying the meter. 
Southern also proposes to abandon the 4-inch meter under Section 
157.16(a) of the Regulations.
    Southern states that it would deliver gas to Hubco under its FERC 
Rate Schedule IT via its Part 284, Subpart G blanket certificate. 
Southern would deliver 166 Mcf of natural gas per average day, 600 Mcf 
per peak day, and 60,000 Mcf annually on an interruptible basis for 
Hubco's gas lift operations in its oil production facilities. Southern 
indicates that Hubco's oil wells are currently shut-in and that without 
Southern's natural gas deliveries, Hubco would not be able to resume 
its production activities.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after the 
Commission has issued this notice, 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 Section 157.205 of the 
Regulations under the NGA (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to the request. If 
no protest is filed within the allowed time, 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn 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 NGA.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
