Midcoast Interstate Transmission, Inc.; Notice of Request Under 
Blanket Authorization

May 27, 1998.
    Take notice that on May 14, 1998, as supplemented on May 22, 1998, 
Midcoast Interstate Transmission, Inc. (MIT), 3230 Second Street, 
Muscle Shoals, Alabama 35661, filed a prior notice request with the 
Commission in Docket No. CP98-553-000 pursuant to section 157.205 of

authorization to install and operate a new delivery point and 
appurtenant facilities in Morgan County, Alabama, under MIT's blanket 
certificates issued in Docket No. CP85-359-000 pursuant to Section 7 of 
the NGA, all as more fully set forth in the request which is open to 
the public for inspection.
    MIT proposes to install and operate a new delivery point under a 
transportation agreement with Bailey-PVS Oxides (Decatur), L.L.C. 
(Bailey). MIT states that it would install two hot taps on its mainline 
transmission system in Morgan County approximately 250 feet of 2-inch 
diameter pipe from the hot taps to the delivery point, a sales meter, 
and a regulator station. MIT states that it would construct the 
proposed delivery point facilities at a cost of $93,063 in order to 
deliver approximately 1,000 dekatherm equivalents of natural gas per 
day to Bailey pursuant to Rate Schedule IT of MIT's FERC Gas Tariff. 
MIT also states that Bailey has contracted for firm transportation 
service with MIT via the proposed delivery point once the looping 
facilities that MIT has requested approval for in Docket No. CP98-247-
000 are authorized and operational. MIT further states that the 
addition of the proposed delivery point is not prohibited by its FERC 
Gas Tariff and that addition of the delivery point would not have any 
adverse impact on a daily or annual basis upon MIT's existing 
customers.
    Any person or the Commission's staff may, within 45 days after the 
Commission has issued this notice, 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 NGA (18CFR 157.205) a protest to the request. If 
no protest is filed within the allowed time, 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn 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.
