[Docket No. RP96-308-000]


Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Motion To Continue 
Pilot Program

November 13, 1996.
    Take notice that on October 25, 1996, Tennessee Gas Pipeline 
Company (Tennessee) filed a motion to continue on a pilot basis through 
the spring of 1997 the effectiveness of tariff sheets that went into 
effect in this docket on September 1, 1996, as modified.\1\ Under those 
tariff sheets, shippers on Tennessee's system may utilize the services 
of third party providers (TPP) under Tennessee's Storage Swing Option 
(SSO). SSO allows Tennessee's customers to use their firm storage 
entitlements to manage their imbalances in lieu of the cashout 
mechanism.

    \1\ See Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company, 76 FERC para. 61,225 
(1996).

    Tennessee states that maintaining the TPP tariff sheets in effect 
on a pilot basis over the course of a full winter season will enable it 
to more accurately gauge customer interest in TPP service, whether it 
can provide the service on a permanent basis taking into account the 
operational complexities of the service, and whether any modifications 
of the existing tariff sheets would be warranted.
    Tennessee states that the motion was served on all parties on the 
Commission's official service list in this proceeding.
    Any person desiring to respond to Tennessee's motion should file an 
answer with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, 
N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, in accordance with Section 213 of the
