[Docket No. CP99-167-000]


Florida Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

January 26, 1999.
    Take notice that on January 20, 1999, Florida Gas Transmission 
Company (Florida Gas), P.O. Box 1188, Houston, Texas 77252-1188, filed 
a prior notice request with the Commission in Docket No. CP99-167-000 
pursuant to Section 157.205 of the Commission's Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to operate an existing delivery 
point in East Baton Rouge Parish, Louisiana, originally installed under 
Section 311 of the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978, as a jurisdictional 
facility under Florida Gas' blanket certificate issued in Docket No. 
CP82-553-000 pursuant to Section 7 of the NGA, all as more fully set 
forth in the request which is open to the public for inspection.
    Florida Gas proposes to operate the existing delivery point located 
near mile post 552.2 on its 24-inch mainline in East Baton Rouge Parish 
as a delivery point for natural gas transportation services under 
Subpart G of Part 284 of the Commission's Regulations. Florida Gas 
states that it placed the delivery point in service for transportation 
services under Subpart B of Part 284 of the Regulations on January 1, 
1999, to serve Exxon Corporation (Exxon), on behalf of Mid-Louisiana 
Gas Transmission Company, an intrastate pipeline. Florida Gas further 
states that it would deliver up to 67,000 MMBtu equivalent of natural 
gas per day and up to 24,455,000 MMBtu equivalent of natural gas yearly 
on an interruptible basis to satisfy Exxon's primarily industrial fuel 
requirements. Florida Gas states that the delivery point consists of 
approximately 75 feet of 8-inch diameter connecting pipe and other 
minor appurtenant facilities.
    Florida Gas states that it has sufficient capacity to accomplish 
the deliveries of the requested gas volumes without detriment or 
disadvantage to Florida Gas' other existing customers and that Florida 
Gas' FERC Gas Tariff does not prohibit the addition of new delivery 
points.
    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.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
