Texas Eastern Transmission Corporation; Notice of Proposed 
Changes in FERC Gas Tariff

May 5, 1997.
    Take notice that on May 1, 1997, Texas Eastern Transmission 
Corporation (Texas Eastern) tendered for filing as part of its FERC Gas 
Tariff, Sixth Revised Volume No. 1, the following tariff sheets with a 
proposed effective date of June 1, 1997:

First Revised Sheet No. 456
Original Sheet No. 456A
Original Sheet No. 456B
Original Sheet No. 456C

    Texas Eastern states that the purpose of this filing is to revise 
Section 3.12 of the General Terms and Conditions (GT&C) of Texas 
Eastern's Tariff to implement a provision to allocate available firm 
forward-haul capacity based on net present value criteria. Texas 
Eastern states that its existing Tariff provides for allocation of 
capacity on a first come, first served basis, an allocation methodology 
that is outdated and ill-equipped to allocate capacity under current 
regulatory and market conditions.
    Texas Eastern states that copies of the filing were served on all 
firm customers of Texas Eastern and applicable state commissions.
    Any person desiring to be heard or to protest said filing should 
file a motion to intervene or protest with the Federal Energy 
Regulatory Commission, 888 First Street, N.E., Washington, D.C. 20426, 
in accordance with Sections 385.214 and 385.211 of the Commission's 
Regulations. All such motions or protests must be filed as provided in 
Section 154.210 of the Commission's Regulations. Protests will be 
considered by the Commission in determining the appropriate action to 
be taken, but will not serve to make protestants parties to the 
proceeding. Any person wishing to become a party must file a motion to 
intervene. Copies of this filing are on file with the Commission and 
are available for public inspection in the Public Reference Room.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
