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

    delivery of natural gas to Southwest Gas Corporation (Southwest), under 
    El Paso's blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-435-000 
    pursuant to Section 7 of the Natural Gas Act, all as more fully set 
    forth in the request that is on file with the Commission and open to 
    public inspection.
        El Paso states that Southwest seeks to deliver natural gas to its 
    customers from a point of El Paso's 12\3/4\'' O.D. Santan Line in 
    Maricopa County, Arizona. The proposed location is approximately at 
    milepost 9.2 on El Paso's 12\3/4\'' O.D. Santan Line in the NE/4 of 
    Section 20, Township 1 South, Range 6 East, in Maricopa County, 
    Arizona. El Paso has been advised that Southwest will use the gas to 
    serve the residential, commercial, and industrial requirements of its 
    customers in the Gilbert, Arizona area. El Paso requests authorization 
    to construct and operate the proposed delivery point (known as the 
    Gilbert City Gate Meter Station) on its 12\3/4\'' O.D. Santan Line in 
    Maricopa County, Arizona. The estimated cost is $92,100 and Southwest 
    has agreed to reimburse El Paso pursuant to their letter agreement.
        El Paso states that the proposed delivery point is not prohibited 
    by its existing tariff and that it has sufficient capacity to 
    accomplish deliveries without detriment or disadvantage to other 
    customers. The proposed delivery point will not have an effect on El 
    Paso's peak day and annual deliveries and the total volumes delivered 
    will not exceed total volumes authorized prior to this request.
        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 Sec. 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn within 30 days after 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.
    Lois D. Cashell,
    Secretary.
