[Docket No. CP97-289-000]


NorAm Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

April 2, 1997.
    Take notice that on March 13, 1997, NorAm Gas Transmission Company 
(NGT), 1600 Smith Street, Houston, Texas 77002, filed in Docket No. 
CP97-289-000 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 certain facilities in Kansas 
under NGT's blanket certificate issued in Docket No CP82-384-000, et 
al., 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.
    NGT proposes to abandon a tap and metering facilities no longer 
needed due to the City of Winfield Gas Utility's (Winfield) expansion 
of its distribution system. The facilities, Rural Extension No. 671, to 
be abandoned consist of a 1-inch tap and 2-inch U-Shape meter station 
located in Cowley County, Kansas. NGT states that Winfield has 
requested that NGT disconnect the meter since Winfield's customers are 
now served by its own distribution system and that no customers or 
services will be abandoned.
    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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
