Texas Eastern Transmission Corporation; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

June 3, 1996.
    Take notice that on May 23, 1996, Texas Eastern Transmission 
Corporation (Texas Eastern), 5400 Westheimer Court, Houston, Texas 
77056-5310, filed in Docket No. CP96-540-000, 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 Texas Eastern's 24-inch Line 
No. 11 in Shelby County, Texas in order to make interruptible natural 
gas deliveries for Four Square Gas Company (Four Square), a marketer, 
and the City of Chireno (City), the end user, (Customers), under its 
blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-535-000, pursuant to 
Section 7(c) of the

[[Page 29085]]

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 2-
inch tap valve and a 2-inch check valve on Texas Eastern's 24-inch Line 
No. 11, at approximate Mile Post 225.64 located in Shelby County, 
Texas. It is indicated that, in addition to the tap and check valves, 
the Customers will install, or cause to be installed, a single 2-inch 
turbine meter (meter station), approximately 50 feet of 2-inch pipeline 
which will extend from the meter station to the tap and the electronic 
gas measurement equipment. Texas Eastern explains that the proposed 
facilities would allow it to provide up to 1 Mmcf/d of interruptible 
transportation to the Customers pursuant to Texas Eastern's Rate 
Schedule IT-1 in its FERC Gas Tariff, Sixth Revised Volume No. 1. Texas 
Eastern says that the Customers will reimburse it for 100% of the costs 
of the facilities which Texas Eastern estimates to be $20,000.
    Texas Eastern states that the interruptible transportation service 
to be rendered to the Customers through the delivery point would be 
performed utilizing existing capacity on Texas Eastern's system and 
will have no effect on Texas Eastern's peak day or annual deliveries. 
Texas Eastern asserts that the proposal will be accomplished without 
detriment or disadvantage to its other customers. Texas Eastern states 
that its existing tariff does not prohibit the addition of these 
facilities.
    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.
