[Docket No. CP08-11-000]


Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Application

October 29, 2007.
    Take notice that on October 18, 2007, Tennessee Gas Pipeline 
Company (Tennessee), 180 East 100 South, Salt Lake City, Utah 84111, 
filed in Docket No. CP08-11-000, an application, pursuant to section 7 
of the Natural Gas Act (NGA), for an order authorizing or approving a 
Payment-in-Lieu-of-Taxes transaction (PILOT Transaction) between 
Tennessee and the Schoharie County Industrial Development Agency 
(Agency) that would involve the lease and lease-back of certain 
property, including certificated facilities located in Schoharie 
County, New York. As described further in the application, the PILOT 
Transaction would give the Agency a passive interest in Tennessee's 
Schoharie County property and facilities solely for the purpose of 
effectuating a tax exemption for Tennessee. Approval and execution of 
PILOT Transaction would not effect jurisdictional services performed by 
Tennessee; would not allow the Agency to administer jurisdictional 
services; and would not require the addition, replacement, 
construction, or abandonment of any certificated facilities or 
capacity. Tennessee will retain complete ownership and operational 
control of its property and facilities, all as more fully set forth in 
the application which is on file with the Commission and open to public 
inspection. This filing may also be viewed on the Commission's Web site 
at http://www.ferc.gov using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the docket 
number, excluding the last three digits, in the docket number field to 
access the document. For assistance, call (202) 502-8659 or TTY, (202) 
208-3676.
    Any questions regarding this application should be directed to 
Kevin Erwin, Associate General Counsel, 1001 Louisiana, Houston Texas 
77002, at (713) 420-1212
    There are two ways to become involved in the Commission's review of 
this project. First, any person wishing to obtain legal status by 
becoming a party to the proceedings for this project should, on or 
before the comment date stated below, file with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., Washington, DC 20426, a 
motion to intervene 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 NGA (18 CFR 157.10). A person 
obtaining party status will be placed on the service list maintained by 
the Secretary of the Commission and will receive copies of all 
documents filed by the applicant and by all other parties. A party must 
submit 14 copies of filings made with the Commission and must mail a 
copy to the applicant and to every other party in the proceeding. Only 
parties to the proceeding can ask for court review of Commission orders 
in the proceeding.
    However, a person does not have to intervene in order to have 
comments considered. The second way to participate is by filing with 
the Secretary of the Commission, as soon as possible, an original and 
two copies of comments in support of or in opposition to this project. 
The Commission will consider these comments in determining the 
appropriate action to be taken, but the filing of a comment alone will 
not serve to make the filer a party to the proceeding. The Commission's 
rules require that persons filing comments in opposition to the project 
provide copies of their protests only to the party or parties directly 
involved in the protest.
    The Commission strongly encourages electronic filings of comments, 
protests and interventions in lieu of paper using the ``eFiling'' link 
at http://www.ferc.gov. Persons unable to file electronically should 
submit an original and 14 copies of the protest or intervention to the 
Federal Energy regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, NE., 
Washington, DC 20426.
    This filing is accessible on-line at http://www.ferc.gov, using the 
``eLibrary'' link and is available for review in the Commission's 
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an ``eSubscription'' 
link on the Web site that enables subscribers to receive e-mail 
notification when a document is added to a subscribed docket(s). For 
assistance with any FERC Online service, please e-mail 
[email protected], or call (866) 208-3676 (toll free). For 
TTY, call (202) 502-8659.
    Comment Date: November 19, 2007.

Kimberly D. Bose,
Secretary.
