Texas Eastern and Tennessee have mutually agreed to terminate the

termination agreements between Tennessee and Texas Eastern dated August
23, 1995, July 7, 1995, May 16, 1995 and May 16, 1995 for Texas
Eastern's Rate Schedules X-65, X-73, X-111 and X-126 and Tennessee's

Texas Eastern and Tennessee request that the abandonment be effective
on the day of issuance of the Commission's order approving abandonment.
Texas Eastern and Tennessee further state that no facilities will
be abandoned in conjunction with the abandonment of these services.
Any person desiring to be heard or to make any protest with
reference to said application should on or before September 28, 1995,
file with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Washington, D.C.
20426, a motion to intervene or a protest in accordance with the
requirements of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18
CFR 385.211) and the Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (18 CFR
157.10). All protests filed with the Commission will be considered by
it in determining the appropriate action to be taken but will not serve
to make the protestants parties to the proceeding. Any person wishing
to become a party to a proceeding or to participate as a party in any
hearing therein must file a motion to intervene in accordance with the
Commission's Rules.
Take further notice that, pursuant to the authority contained in
and subject to the jurisdiction conferred upon the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission by Sections 7 and 15 of the Natural Gas Act and
the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, a hearing will be
held without further notice before the Commission or its designee on
this application if no motion to intervene is filed within the time
required herein, if the Commission on its own review of the matter
finds that permission and approval for the proposed abandonment are
required by the public convenience and necessity. If a motion for leave
to intervene is timely filed, or if the Commission on its own motion
believes that a formal hearing is required, further notice of such
hearing will be duly given.
Under the procedure herein provided for, unless otherwise advised,
it will be unnecessary for Texas Eastern and Tennessee to appear or be
represented at the hearing.
Lois D. Cashell,
Secretary.
