    NorAm Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Amended Application
    
    October 18, 1995.
        Take notice that on October 10, 1995, NorAm Gas Transmission 
    Company (NGT), formerly Arkla Energy Resources Company, 1600 Smith 
    Street, Houston, Texas 77002, filed in Docket No. CP94-267-003 an 
    amended application pursuant to Section 7(b) and 7(c) of the Natural 
    Gas Act for authorization to replace and reroute segments of its Line F 
    in Louisiana and to make other minor pipeline changes, all as more 
    fully set forth in the application on file with the Commission and open 
    to public inspection.
        NGT states that it filed an application in Docket No. CP94-267-000 
    on March 4, 1994, to replace and rearrange an existing mainline 
    pipeline, abandon minor storage and gas supply facilities and make 
    minor mainline enhancements to its pipeline system in Arkansas, 
    Louisiana and Texas. NGT relates that on October 4, 1994, it filed in 
    Docket No. CP94-267-001, an amendment to its application to modify the 
    compression facilities that were originally proposed to be installed 
    and rearranged in the existing Ruston Storage Compressor yard. NGT 
    reports that on April 5, 1995, the Commission issued an order in Docket 
    Nos. CP94-267-000 and CP94-267-001 authorizing the construction, 
    operation, and abandonment of facilities.\1\ NGT notes that on May 5, 
    1995, it filed a request for rehearing and clarification of the April 
    5, 1995 order and, on June 16, 1995, it requested that the Commission 
    take no further action in this docket pending its evaluation of recent 
    developments that could affect the enhancements and replacements 
    proposed by NGT.
    
        \1\71 FERC 61,017 (1995).
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
    
        NGT states that it has completed its evaluation and is filing to 
    amend its application to modify its proposed replacements and 
    abandonments and to eliminate nearly all the proposed system 
    enhancements. NGT explains that its original application sought 
    authority to spend approximately $48.6 million to make various 
    replacements and rearrangements. NGT relates that its amended proposal 
    involves a request for authority to spend approximately $23.7 million, 
    a decrease of approximately $25 million, to replace and rearrange parts 
    of its pipeline system.
        Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with 
    reference to said amended application should on or before November 8, 
    1995, file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 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. Any 
    person wishing to become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a 
    party in any hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in 
    accordance with the Commission's Rules.
        Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in 
    and subject to jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy 
    Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act 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 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 NGT to appear or be represented at the 
    hearing.
    Lois D. Cashell,
    Secretary.
