Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP99-569-001]


Texas Eastern Transmission Corporation, National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation; Notice of Amendment

August 31, 1999.
    Take notice that on August 26, 1999, Texas Eastern Transmission 
Corporation (Texas Eastern), 5400 Westheimer Court, Houston, Texas 
77251-1642, filed in Docket No. CP99-569-001 to amend the pending Joint 
Abbreviated Application of Texas Eastern and National Fuel Gas Supply 
Corporation (National Fuel), filed on July 25, 1999 in Docket No. CP99-
569-000. The amendment is on file with the Commission and open to 
public inspection and may be viewed on the web at http://www.ferc.us/
online/rims.htm (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).
    Texas Eastern states that the purpose of the amendment is to 
reflect an agreement reached between Texas Eastern and ProGas USA, Inc. 
(ProGas) pursuant to which Texas Eastern would provide ProGas with 
interruptible transportation service under Texas Eastern's Rate 
Schedule IT-1 with scheduling priority, in Texas Eastern's Market Zone 
M-3 only, equal to secondary firm service in order to replicate the 
secondary service rights ProGas currently enjoys under ProGas' current 
Rate Schedule FT-1 Service Agreement with Texas Eastern.
    Any questions regarding this amendment should be directed to S.E. 
Tillman, Director of Regulatory Affairs, Texas Eastern Transmission 
Corporation, P.O. Box 1642, Houston, Texas 77251-1642 at (713) 627-5113 
(Voice), or (713) 627-5947 (FAX).
    Any person desiring to be heard or making any protest with 
reference to said amendment should on or before September 21, 1999, 
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, 
NE, Washington, D.C. 20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in 
accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice 
and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the 
Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.10). All protests filed with the Commission 
will be considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be 
taken but will not serve to make the protestants parties to the 
proceeding. The Commission's rules require that protestors provide 
copies of their protests to the party or person to whom the protests 
are directed. Any person who filed to intervene in Docket No. CP99-569-
000 need not file again.
    Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in 
and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the NGA and the 
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be held 
without further notice before the Commission or its designee on this 
application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time required 
herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter finds that a 
grant of the certificate is required by the public convenience and 
necessity. If a motion for leave to intervene is timely filed, or if 
the Commission on its own motion believes that a formal hearing is 
required, further notice of such hearing will be duly given.
    Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised, 
it will be unnecessary for Texas Eastern or National Fuel to appear or 
be represented at the hearing.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
