[Docket No. CP99-219-000]


Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation; Notice of Request 
Under Blanket Authorization

February 23, 1999.
    Take notice that on February 17, 1999, Transcontinental Gas Pipe 
Line Corporation (Transco), P.O. Box 1396, Houston, Texas 77251, filed 
in Docket No. CP99-219-000 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 construct, own and operate a 
delivery point for Monroe Power Company (MPC), a new gas transportation 
customer and provider of electricity and energy services in the 
southeast United States, under Transco's blanket certificate issued in 
Docket No. CP82-426-000, 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. This filing may be viewed on 
the web at http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (please call (202) 
208-2222 for assistance).
    Transco states that the delivery point will consist of a 10-inch 
valve tap assembly, approximately one mile of 10-inch pipeline lateral 
from Transco's mainline tap to MPC's facility location, a meter station 
with two 10-inch orifice meter tubes, and other appurtenant facilities. 
Transco states the proposed delivery point will be installed at or near 
milepost 1084.96 on its mainline near Station No. 125 in Walton County, 
Georgia. Transco states that MPC will construct, or cause to be 
constructed, appurtenant facilities to enable it to receive gas from 
Transco at such point and move the gas to a new MPC peaking power 
facility.
    Transco states the new delivery point will be used by MPC to 
receive up to 97,000 dekatherms of gas per day from Transco on a 
capacity release, secondary firm or interruptible basis. Transco states 
the gas delivered through the new delivery point will be used by MPC as 
fuel for its peaking power facility. Transco states that MPC is not 
currently a transportation customer of Transco, and that upon 
completion of the delivery point Transco will commence transportation 
service to MPC or its suppliers pursuant to Transco's Rate Schedules 
FT, FT-R, or IT and Part 284(G) of the Commission's regulations. 
Transco states the addition of the delivery point will have no 
significant impact on its peak day or annual deliveries, and is not 
prohibited by its FERC Gas Tariff.
    Transco estimates the total costs of its proposed facilities to be 
approximately $1,470,800.00, and states that MPC will reimburse Transco 
for all costs associated with such facilities.
    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.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
