Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice or Request Under Blanket 
Authorization

October 25, 1999.
    Take notice that on October 20, 1999, Tennessee Gas Pipeline 
(Tennessee), a Delaware Corporation, Post Office Box 2511, Houston, 
Texas 77252, filed a request with the Commission in Docket No. CP00-11-
000, pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 157.208(f)(2) of the Commission's 
Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for authorization to 
increase the maximum allowable operating pressure (MAOP) through an 
uprate of Tennessee's Grand Cheniere-N.W. Chalkey Line also designated 
as Line 507A-800 (Line 807A-800) and a delivery meter designated as 
Meter No. 02-0484 located in Calcasieu Parish, Louisiana, 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 http://
www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (call 202-208-2222 for assistance).
    Tennessee proposes to increase the MAOP of Line 507A-800 from 800 
p.s.i.g. to 999 p.s.i.g. Tennessee wishes to uprate Line 507A-800 and 
Meter No. 02-0484 in order to increase the operational efficiency of 
the lateral and to eliminate the manual efforts required to operate the 
lateral. Line 507A-800 is a lateral that consists of approximately 2.2 
miles of six-inch diameter pipe. The lateral is used only to provide 
natural gas deliveries to a single agricultural end-user in Calcasieu 
Parish, Louisiana. Line 507A-800 is connected to Tennessee's mainline 
507A-100 which operates at 999 p.s.i.g. To provide service to the 
delivery tap on the lateral, Meter No. 02-0484, Tennessee personnel 
must manually bleed gas into Line 507A-800 from Line 507A-100. Once 
Line 507A-800 and Meter No. 02-0484 are uprated to 999 p.s.i.g., the 
manual monitoring can be eliminated. The estimated cost of this uprate 
is $15,000.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after the 
Commission has issued this notice, 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 NGA (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to the request. If 
no protest is filed within the allowed time, 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn 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 NGA.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
