Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR 157.205 and

this bi-directional point Tennessee will install, own, operate and 
maintain a 4-inch restriction plate and electronic gas measurement and 
will inspect Bridgeline's installation of measurement facilities. It is 
further stated that Bridgeline will reimburse Tennessee for the cost of 
this project which is approximately $18,600.
    Tennessee states that the service at the bi-directional point would 
be provided on an interruptible basis and that: (i) volumes delivered 
to Bridgeline after the modification of this receipt point would not 
exceed the total volumes authorized prior to this request to modify the 
receipt point; (ii) that establishing the proposed bi-directional point 
is not prohibited by Tennessee's existing tariff; and, (iii) that 
Tennessee has sufficient capacity to accomplish receipt and deliveries 
at the proposed point without detriment or disadvantage to its 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) 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and not withdrawn within 30 days after the time allowed for filing a 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.
