Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

March 21, 1997.
    Take notice that on March 10, 1997, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company 
(Tennessee), P.O. Box 2511, Houston, Texas 77252, filed in Docket No. 
CP97-282-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 157.216 of the 
Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 
157.216) for authorization to abandon by removal measurement facilities 
located in Carter County, Kentucky, under Tennessee's blanket 
certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-413-000, pursuant to Section 7 of 
the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the request that is 
on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Tennessee proposes to abandon the facilities, including the meter, 
piping and appurtenant facilities, which were installed and placed in 
service in June 1949 to serve Inland Gas Corporation (Inland), for the 
sale of natural gas for resale to the public for residential, 
commercial and industrial uses. It is stated that no gas has flowed 
through the meter since 1987. It is asserted that Inland was the only 
customer served by the facilities, and a letter was included in the 
application from Columbia Gas of Kentucky, Inc. (Columbia), successor 
in interest to Inland, showing Columbia's consent to the abandonment.
    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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
