[Docket No. CP97-530-000]


Texas Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

June 4, 1997.
    Take notice that on May 19, 1997, Texas Gas Transmission 
Corporation, (Texas Gas), Post Office Box 20008, Owensboro, Kentucky 
42304, filed in Docket No. CP97-530-000 a request pursuant to Sections 
157.205, 157.212, and 157.216(b) of the Commission's Regulations under 
the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205, 157.212, and 157.216(b)) for 
authorization to replace and relocate an existing delivery point in 
Hopkins County, Kentucky. Texas Gas makes such request under its 
blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-407-000 pursuant to 
Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set forth in the 
request on file with the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Texas Gas proposes to replace and relocate its Hanson delivery 
point which Texas Gas states is used to serve Western Kentucky Gas 
Company (WKG), a local distribution company. Specifically, Texas Gas is 
proposing to relocate the Hanson delivery point from the terminus of 
the Hanson 2-inch line to Texas Gas' Slaughters-Nortonville 10-inch 
line. Texas Gas indicates that it will install, own and operate a new 
high-pressure positive meter, electronic flow measurement, dual-run 
regulation station and related facilities on a lot acquired by Texas 
Gas. Texas Gas further states that following installation of the new 
facilities, that it will transfer ownership of the Hanson 2-inch line 
and the existing Hanson 2-inch meter station to WKG. It is indicated 
that WKG will use the Hanson 2-inch line to receive gas from the 
relocated Hanson delivery point. It is stated that such proposed 
replacement and relocation of this meter facility is to upgrade the 
existing measurement facilities and relocate the meter to a site which 
is more convenient for operation and maintenance of the station. The 
estimated costs for this replacement and relocation is $70,000.
    It is averred that since this proposal is merely a relocation of an 
existing delivery point, no increase in contract quantity has been 
requested by WKG, and thus the above proposal will have no significant 
effect on Texas Gas' peak day and annual deliveries, and service to WKG 
through this point can be accomplished without detriment to Texas Gas' 
other customers.
    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.
