Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation; Notice of Request 
Under Blanket Authorization

September 7, 1999.
    Take notice that on September 3, 1999, Transcontinental Gas Pipe 
Line Corporation (Transco), filed a request with the Commission in 
Docket No. CP-99-612-000, pursuant to Sections 157.205 and 157.216(b) 
of the Commission's Regulations under the Natural Gas Act (NGA) for 
authorization to abandon by sale an existing delivery meter station in 
Rockingham County, North Carolina, referred to as the ``Cardinal Meter 
Station'', authorized in blanket certificate issued in Docket No. CP82-
426-000, all as more fully set forth in the request on file with the 
Commission and open to public inspection. This filing may be viewed on 
the web at http://www.ferc.fed.us/online/rims.htm (call 202-208-2222 
for assistance).
    Transco proposes to abandon the Cardinal Meter Station (meter 
station) by sale to Cardinal Pipeline Company, LLC (Cardinal Pipeline). 
Cardinal, a Hinshaw pipeline whose rates and service are subject to 
regulation by the North Carolina Utilities Commission, would own and 
operate the meter station as part of its pipeline system and would 
continue to use the meter station to measure gas delivered by Transco. 
Transco reports that the meter station is used for deliveries of gas to 
Cardinal Pipeline for the account of Public Service Company of North 
Carolina, Inc. and Piedmont Natural Gas Company, Inc. Transco states 
that both Cardinal Pipeline and Piedmont have consented to the proposed 
abandonment. Transco states that the proposed abandonment would have no 
impact on Transco's peak day deliveries and little or no impact on 
Transco's annual deliveries.
    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 (18 CFR 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 If a protest is filed and not withdrawn 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 the NGA.
David P. Boergers,
Secretary.
