Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

August 22, 2000.
    Take notice that on August 16, 2000, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company 
(Tennessee), a Delaware Corporation, Post Office Box 2511, Houston, 
Texas 77252-2511, filed a request with the Commission in Docket No. 
CP00-441-000, pursuant to Section 157.205 and 157.208(b)(2) of the 
Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for 
authorization to construct, own, install and operate an offshore supply 
lateral, the Texas Deepwater Link Project, consisting of approximately 
17.8 miles of 20-inch diameter pipeline to connect Tennessee's existing 
offshore system to the High Island Offshore System, L.L.C. (HIOS) 
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. This filing may be viewed on the web at

    Tennessee proposes to construct, own, install and operate 
facilities necessary to receive and transport natural gas produced in 
the offshore Gulf of Mexico. The lateral line would originate from 
Tennessee's Line 507K-200 in West Cameron Block 180 offshore Louisiana

Cameron Block 167. The facilities would have the capability to 
transport 700 MMcf of natural gas per day at a maximum allowable 
operating pressure of 1,440 psig. Tennessee estimates that the cost of 
constructing the subject facilities would be $14,485,000.
    Any questions regarding the application may be directed to Wendell 
B. Hunt, Attorney at (713) 420-5628 or Thomas G. Joyce, Certificates 
Manager at (713) 420-2459.

Commission has issued this notice, file pursuant to Rule 214 of the
