[Docket No. CP97-75-000]
Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket
Authorization
November 1, 1996.
Take notice that on October 28, 1996, Tennessee Gas Pipeline
Company (Tennessee), P.O. Box 2511, Houston, Texas 77252, filed in
Docket No. CP97-75-000 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 establish a delivery point
for Reynolds Metals Company (Reynolds) 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 construct a new delivery point on its system
at approximate milepost 5A-202+6 in San Patricio County, Texas for the
delivery of up to 27,000 dekatherms per day of natural gas to Reynolds.
The cost of the new delivery point is estimated to be $240,000.
Tennessee states that in order to establish this delivery point,
Tennessee proposes to construct, own, operate and maintain the
necessary 6-inch hot tap, approximately 100 feet of 6-inch interconnect
piping, measurement, including electronic gas measurement equipment,
communications equipment, upstream separation facilities, valving and
appurtenant facilities. Tennessee states that the hot tap and a portion
of the interconnecting pipe will be located on Tennessee's existing
right-of-way, and that the meter facilities, the remaining portion of
the interconnecting pipe, communications, and the separator will be
located on a site adjacent to Tennessee's existing right-of-way.
Tennessee states that Reynolds will provide the adjacent meter station
site, site improvements, access road and electrical service. Tennessee
states that Reynolds will install, own and maintain the flow control
equipment and pipeline between the meter station and its plant, and
that Tennessee will operate the flow control equipment.
Tennessee states that the total quantities to be delivered for
Reynolds will not exceed the total quantities authorized. Tennessee
asserts that its tariff does not prohibit the addition of new delivery
points, and that it has sufficient capacity to accomplish the
deliveries at the proposed new delivery meter without detriment or
[[Page 57667]]
disadvantage to any of Tennessee's other customers.
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.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
