Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
[Docket No. CP98-72-000]
NorAm Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket
Authorization
November 12, 1997.
Take notice that on November 5, 1997, NorAm Gas Transmission
Company (NGT), 525 Milam Street, P.O. Box 21734, Shreveport, Louisiana
71151, filed in Docket No. CP98-72-000 a request pursuant to Sections
157.205 and 157.211 of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural
Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205 and 18 CFR 157.211) for authorization to
construct and operate delivery taps and regulators, located in Arkansas
County, Arkansas, under NGT's blanket certificate issued in Docket Nos.
CP82-384-000 and CP82-384-001, pursuant to Section 7(c) 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.
NGT proposes to operate under Subpart G of Part 284 of the
Commission's Regulations a 1-inch tap and first-cut regulator,
previously constructed under Section 311 of the Natural Gas Policy Act
and Subpart B, Part 284 of the Commission's Regulations. NGT declares
these facilities, previously constructed in August, 1997, will provide
gas to ARKLA, a division of NorAm Energy Corporation (ARKLA), on NGT's
Line TM-10, located in Arkansas County, Arkansas. NGT states the tap
was constructed at a cost of approximately $2,556 and ARKLA will
reimburse NGT $1,750 of this cost. NGT submits the estimated volumes to
be delivered through these facilities are 1,000 Dth annually and 100
Dth on a peak day.
In addition, NGT proposes to construct, own, and operate up to
sixteen 1-inch delivery taps and first-cut regulators currently being
negotiated, all to serve ARKLA, on NGT's Line TM-10, located in
Arkansas County, Arkansas, at a cost of $2,556, with ARKLA reimbursing
NGT $1,750 of this cost.
NGT states that for each of these proposed taps ARKLA will
construct, at its own cost, and donate to NGT, either a 1-inch or 2-
inch meter station, and NGT will construct and install the 1-inch tap
and first-cut regulator. NGT asserts they will own and operate all of
the facilities. NGT declares the estimated annual and peak day volumes
for each tap ranges from 1,000 to 6,000 Dth and 50 to 200 Dth,
respectively.
Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after
issuance of the instant notice by the Commission, 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 Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205) a protest to
the request. If no protest is filed within the time allowed therefor,
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 Natural Gas Act.

Acting Secretary.
