    Noram Gas Transmission Company; Notice of Request Under Blanket 
    Authorization
    
    June 4, 1996.
        Take notice that on May 24, 1996, NorAm Gas Transmission Company 
    (NGT), 1600 Smith Street, Houston, Texas 77002, filed in the above 
    docket, a request pursuant to Sections 157.211 and 157.216 of the 
    Commission's Regulations and under its blanket certificate issued in 
    Docket Nos. CP82-384-000 and CP82-384-001 to acquire and operate 
    certain facilities in Louisiana, and to also abandon and relocate an 
    existing meter station and regulator, all as more fully set forth in 
    the request that is on file with the Commission and open to public 
    inspection.
        NGT specifically proposes to acquire approximately 5,900 feet of 
    8\5/8\ inch pipe from Lafayette Gas Intrastate (Lafayette), and it also 
    seeks authority to abandon and relocate an NGT existing

    6-inch meter station and dual 4-inch regulator. The subject delivery 
    lateral interconnects with NGT's Line FM-12 in Section 37, Township 
    2ON, Range 4E, at Sterlington, Ouachita Parish, Louisiana. This line, 
    FM-66, will be used to deliver natural gas to Louisiana Power and 
    Light's (LP&L) electric generating plant at Sterlington, Louisiana. The 
    estimated volumes to be delivered to this delivery tap are 
    approximately 15,000 MMBtu per day on a peak day and approximately 
    5,475,000 MMBtu on an annual basis. The delivery lateral will be 
    purchased at the existing net book value of approximately $120,000. The 
    facilities to be relocated will be removed from NGT's point of current 
    interconnect with Lafayette and relocated to the point of delivery at 
    the LP&L plant. The facilities will be used as part of NGT's existing 
    interstate system. No customers or service will be abandoned as a 
    result of the acquisition, the operation or the abandonment of these 
    facilities. The volumes to be delivered to LP&L are within LP&L's 
    certified entitlements pursuant to NGT's blanket transportation 
    certificate issued in Docket No. CP88-820 and the transportation 
    service agreement executed pursuant to NGT's tariff.
        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 Rules of Practice and Procedure (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 is deemed to be authorized effective on 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.
