Authorization

July 18, 1997.
    Take notice that on July 11, 1997, NorAm Gas Transmission Company 
(NGT), 1600 Smith Street, Houston, Texas 77002, filed in Docket No. 
CP97-632-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205, 157.211 and 
157.216 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 
CFR 157.205, 157.211, and 157.216) for authorization to abandon and 
operate facilities in Mississippi County, Arkansas under NGT's blanket 
certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-384-000 and CP82-384-001 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 reduce operating cost by replacing and upgrading 
inefficient metering tubes at an existing tap on its Line J. The 
replacement will also increase the meter stations delivery design 
capacity from 18,000 MMBtu/day to 40,000 MMBtu/day. The estimated total 
cost of the project is $9,965.
    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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.

Secretary.
