Natural Gas Pipeline Company of America; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

May 6, 1997.
    Take notice that on May 1, 1997, Natural Gas Pipeline Company of 
America (Natural), 701 East 22nd Street, Lombard, Illinois 60148, filed 
in Docket No. CP97-441-000 a request pursuant to Secs. 157.205, and 
157.212 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 
CFR 157.205 and 157.212) for approval and permission to operate a 
delivery tap for Amoco Gas Company (Amoco), an intrastate pipeline 
company, previously constructed and operated under Section 311(a)(1) of 
the Natural Gas Policy Act, under the blanket certificate issued in 
Docket No. CP86-582-000, pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas 
Act (NGA), all as more fully set forth in the request which is on file 
with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Natural states that it proposed to operate existing delivery 
facilities that interconnect Amoco with Natural's Old Ocean 14-inch 
lateral located in Brazoris County, Texas, which Natural has previously 
used under Subpart B or Part 284 of the Commission's Regulations for 
transportation services to Amoco. By this application Natural seeks 
authorization for jurisdictional transportation services, including 
services under Subpart G of Part 284 of the Commission's Regulations. 
Natural asserts that the total volume of natural gas to be delivered to 
this delivery point after the facilities are authorized to provide 
jurisdictional services will not exceed the total volumes available 
prior to such authorization. Natural states that it is currently 
providing firm transportation at this delivery point under Natural's 
Rate Schedule FTS. Natural further asserts that it has sufficient 
capacity to provide this service at this delivery point without 
detriment or disadvantage to Natural's peak day or annual delivery 
capability and can deliver up to approximately 1,000 MMBtu per day of 
natural gas to AMOCO.
    Any person or the Commission's Staff may, within 45 days after the 
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule 
214 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (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 therefore, the proposed activities 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 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.
