[Docket No. CP98-695-000]


Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

Issued July 31, 1998.
    Take notice that on July 27, 1998, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company 
(Tennessee), Post Office Box 2511, Houston, Texas 77252-2511, filed a 
request with the Commission in Docket No. CP98-695-000, pursuant to 
157.205 and 157.212 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural 
Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to operate as jurisdictional certain 
existing delivery point facilities that were initially constructed 
under Section 311(a) of the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (NGPA) 
authorized in blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-413-000, 
all as more fully set forth in the request on file with the Commission 
and open to public inspection.
    Tennessee proposes to operate certain existing delivery point 
facilities under Section 7(c) of the NGA and Tennessee's Part 157, 
Subpart F blanket certificate. Tennessee reports that the delivery 
point facilities are located in Franklin County, Alabama, Barren 
County, Kentucky, Scholharie County, New York, and Allen County, 
Kentucky, and that the delivery point facilities were constructed to 
implement transportation agreements under Section 311 of the NGPA. 
Tennessee states that granting the request would enable Tennessee to 
fully utilize these facilities for all transportation services, 
pursuant to Section 311 for the NGPA and Section 7 of the NGA and would 
increase the transportation options of customers on Tennessee's system.
    Tennessee further states that delivery volumes through the existing 
delivery points would not impact Tennessee's peak day and annual 
deliveries. Tennessee reports that the proposed activity is not 
prohibited by its existing tariff and that Tennessee has sufficient 
capacity to accommodate the changes proposed without detriment or 
disadvantage to Tennessee's other customers.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after the 
Commission has issued this notice, 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 NGA (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to the

request. If no protest is filed within the allowed time, 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withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a protest, 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 NGA.
David P. Boergers,
Acting Secretary.
