[Docket No. CP99-288-000]
Texas Gas Transmission Corporation; Notice of Application
April 8, 1999.
Take notice that on April 6, 1999, Texas Gas Transmission
Corporation (Texas Gas), 3800 Frederica Street, Owensboro, Kentucky
42301, filed an application with the Commission in Docket No. CP99-288-
000 pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for permission
and approval to abandon an interruptible transportation service
performed for Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company (Tennessee) under Texas
Gas' FERC Gas Tariff Rate Schedule X-82, all as more fully set forth in
the request which is open to the public for inspection. The application
may be viewed on the web at www.ferc.fed.us. Call (202) 208-2222 for
assistance.
Texas Gas received authority on December 7, 1979, to transport up
to 80,000 Mcf of natural gas and associated liquids per day for
Tennessee via its capacity in the High Island Offshore System and the
Michigan Wisconsin Pipe Line Company from West Cameron Block 167,
offshore Louisiana, to an exchange point between Texas Gas and
Tennessee at Egan, Acadia Parish, Louisiana.\1\ Texas Gas states that
Tennessee no longer needs this interruptible transportation service. By
mutual agreement, the parties via a letter dated March 8, 1999,
terminated the transportation service. No facilities would be abandoned
in this proposal.

Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said application should on or before April 29, 1999, file
with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E.,
Washington, D.C. 20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in
accordance with the requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice
and Procedure (18 CFR 385.214 or 385.211) and the Regulations under the
NGA (18 CFR 157.10). All protests filed with the Commission will be
considered by it in determining the appropriate action to be taken but
will not serve to make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Any
person wishing to become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a
party in any hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in
accordance with the Commission's Rules.
Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in
and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the NGA and the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be held
without further notice before the Commission or its designee on this
application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time required
herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter finds that
permission and approval for the proposed abandonment are required by
the public convenience and necessity. If a motion for leave to
intervene is timely filed, or if the Commission on its own motion
believes that a formal hearing is required, further notice of such
hearing will be duly given.
Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised,
it will be unnecessary for Texas Gas to appear or be represented at the
hearing.
Linwood A. Watson, Jr.,
Acting Secretary.
