    Take notice that on June 9, 1998, NorAm Gas Transmission Company 
(NGT), 525 Milam, P.O. Box 21734, Shreveport, Louisiana 71151, filed in 
Docket No. CP98-602-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 
157.211 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 
CFR 157.205, 157.211) for authorization to operate a tap, regulator, 
and metering facilities, located in Poinsett County, Arkansas, under 
NGT's blanket certificate issued in Docket Nos. CP82-384-000 and CP82-
384-001, pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act, all as more 
fully set forth in the request that is on file with the Commission and

    NGT proposes to operate a 1-inch tap and 1-inch regulator on Line 
JM-25, located in Section 29, Township 11 North, Range 7 East, located 
in Poinsett County, Arkansas. NGT states that these facilities were 
constructed under Section 311 of the Natural Gas Policy Act and Subpart 
B, Part 284 of the Commission's Regulations and are necessary to 
provide increased service to the rural distribution system of Arkla, a 
distribution division of NorAm Energy Corporation (Arkla).
    NGT states that the total estimated increased volumes to be 
delivered through this new tap are approximately 1,000 MMBtu annually 
and 10 MMBtu on a peak day. NGT declares that the total costs are 
estimated at $2,032 and Arkla will reimburse NGT an estimated $1,600 of 
those costs.
    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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.

Acting Secretary.
