Texas Eastern Transmission Corporation; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

April 9, 1996.
    Take notice that on April 8, 1996, Texas Eastern Transmission 
Corporation (Texas Eastern), P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251-1642, 
filed in Docket No. CP96-303-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 
and 157.211 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act 
(18 CFR 157.205 and 157.211) for authorization to construct and operate 
a delivery point on its facilities in Westmoreland, Pennsylvania to 
implement an interruptible transportation service of up to 4,000 Mcf 
per day under Rate Schedule IT-1 for American Video Glass (AVCO), under 
the blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-535-000, 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.
    Texas Eastern states that the proposed facilities consist of a 4-
inch tap valve and 4-inch check valve on each of Texas Eastern's 30-
inch Line No. 9 and 36-inch Line 29, in Westmoreland County, 
Pennsylvania. It is indicated that, in addition to the tap and check 
meter, AVCO will install, or cause to be installed, a dual 4-inch 
orifice meter run, approximately 20 feet of 6-inch pipeline and the 
electronic gas measurement equipment. Texas Eastern states that the 
proposed facilities would allow it to provide up to 4,000 Mcf per day 
of interruptible service for AVCO. Texas Eastern estimates a facility 
cost of $136,000, which would be reimbursed by AVCO.
    Texas Eastern states that interruptible transportation service to 
be rendered to AVCO through the delivery point would be performed using 
existing capacity on Texas Eastern's system and would have no effect on 
Texas Eastern's peak day or annual deliveries. It is also stated that 
the proposal would be accomplished without detriment or disadvantage to 
Texas Eastern's other customers.
    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 Section 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.
