Act, all as more fully set forth in the request that is on file with 
the Commission and open to public inspection.
    Texas Eastern proposes to construct, install, own, operate and 
maintain a 10-inch tap valve, a 10-inch check valve and related piping 
(Tap) on Texas Eastern's existing 24-inch Line No. 1, at approximate 
Mile Post 414.07 in Stoddard County, Missouri. In addition, Texas 
Eastern states it will install, own, operate and maintain an 8-inch 
orifice and 6-inch turbine meter runs, with associated piping and 
valves (Meter Station), approximately 3,200 feet of 10-month pipeline 
which will extend from the Meter Station to the proposed Essex Power 
Plant (Connecting Pipe), and electronic gas measurement equipment 
(EGM). Texas Eastern states that AECI will reimburse Texas Eastern 100% 
of the costs and expenses incurred to install the Tap, Meter Station, 
Connecting Pipe and EGM, which are estimated to be approximately 
$1,650,000.
    Texas Eastern states that it will deliver up to 58 MMcf/day of 
natural gas to AECI at the proposed delivery point, and that the 
transportation service will be rendered pursuant to Texas Eastern's 
Rate Schedule IT-1 included in its FERC Gas Tariff, Sixth Revised 
Volume No. 1. Texas Eastern states that its existing tariff does not 
prohibit the addition of this facility. Texas Eastern also states that 
the installation of the delivery point will have not effect on its peak 
day or annual deliveries, and that its proposal will be accomplished 
without detriment or disadvantage to Texas Eastern's 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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.

Secretary.
