September 5, 2006.

Take notice that on August 30, 2006, Tennessee Gas Pipeline Company (Tennessee) tendered for filing the following agreements and requests that the Commission approve the filing effective on the commencement date of the Shippers' FT-A Service Agreements:

(1) A gas transportation agreement between Tennessee and Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (Anadarko) pursuant to Tennessee's Rate Schedule FT-A dated August 28, 2006;

(2) A negotiated rate letter agreement between Tennessee and Anadarko dated February 3, 2006;

(3) A gas transportation agreement between Tennessee and Devon Energy Production Company, L.P. (Devon) pursuant to Tennessee's Rate Schedule FT-A dated August 28, 2006;

(4) A negotiated rate letter agreement between Tennessee and Devon dated February 3, 2006;

(5) A gas transportation agreement between Tennessee and Dominion Exploration and Production Company, Inc. (Dominion) pursuant to Tennessee's Rate Schedule FT-A dated August 28, 2006;

(6) A negotiated rate letter agreement between Tennessee and Dominion dated February 3, 2006;

(7) A gas transportation agreement between Tennessee and Hydro Gulf of Mexico, L.L.C. (Hydro) pursuant to Tennessee's Rate Schedule FT-A dated August 28, 2006;

(8) A negotiated rate letter agreement between Tennessee and Hydro dated February 3, 2006;

(9) A gas transportation agreement between Tennessee and Kerr-McGee Oil and Gas Corporation (Kerr-McGee) pursuant to Tennessee's Rate Schedule FT-A dated August 28, 2006; and

(10) A negotiated rate letter agreement between Tennessee and Kerr-McGee dated February 3, 2006.

Tennessee submits the gas transportation agreements and negotiated rate letter agreements to seek Commission approval of negotiated rate arrangements between Tennessee and Anadarko, Devon, Dominion, Hydro, and Kerr-McGee, respectively. Additionally, Tennessee submits the gas transportation agreements between Tennessee and Anadarko, Devon, Dominion, Hydro, and Kerr-McGee, respectively, because the gas transportation agreements contain provisions that deviate from Tennessee's pro forma Firm Transportation Agreement. Tennessee is therefore submitting the agreements for Commission review and approval.
