October 2, 1996.
    Take notice that on September 27, 1996, Tennessee Gas Pipeline 
Company (Tennessee), P.O. Box 2511, Houston, Texas 77252, filed in 
Docket No. CP96-818-000 a request pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 
157.212 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 
CFR 157.205, 157.212) for authorization to install a new delivery point 
to provide continuing firm natural gas transportation service to the 
Southern Connecticut Gas Company (Southern Connecticut) under 
Tennessee's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-413-000 
pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set 
forth in the request that is on file with the Commission and open to 
public inspection.
    Tennessee proposes to establish a new delivery point on Tennessee's 
system in the vicinity of Mainline Valve No. 342 in Fairfield County, 
Connecticut. Tennessee will install two 6-inch hot taps, approximately 
fifty feet of 6-inch bypass, 10-inch headers and Bristol 3330 
electronic gas measurement (EGM). The two hot taps and the 
interconnecting pipe will be located within Tennessee's existing right-
of-way. The meter station will be located adjacent to Tennessee's 
existing right-of-way on a site provided by Southern Connecticut. 
Tennessee will install, own, operate and maintain the hot taps, the 
interconnecting pipe and the EGM, and will install and operate the 
measurement facilities. Southern Connecticut will own and maintain the 
measurement facilities.
    Tennessee states that the total quantities to be delivered to 
Southern Connecticut after the delivery point is installed will not 
exceed the total quantities authorized prior to this request. Tennessee 
asserts that the installation of the proposed delivery point is not 
prohibited by Tennessee's tariff and that it has sufficient capacity to 
accomplish deliveries at the proposed new point without detriment or

issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, file pursuant to Rule

the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to 
the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor,

day after the time allowed for filing a protest. If a protest is filed
